Is Matz, a quarter of the way through the season, on pace for a 20 win campaign?

Yes, the variability of small numbers and sample sizes, but wow, Matz being potentially our first SP to six wins was not something I was expecting, outside of nightmare scenarios.

Borucki to the IL with a " left forearm flexor strain". That doesn't sound good at all.

By year's end, our rotation will consist of Milone, Schad, Randle, SharoneWright and HottieMcShotty.

How the heck did that ball not go? Thought that was going 450 ft.

Oh man just missed a home run

But also... we need to get some kind of automated ball/strike system , this umpire sucks again. Players dont know what to expect game to game and it’s annoying. Obviously humans cant do this job correctly.

I feel like Sharone and Mcshotty gonna be fireballers, like Pearson. Randle be straight forward and come right after ya but once in awhile he's off the rails like Ray and Schad probably throws 1 pitch 96 different ways like Bergen. Sign em up!

Oh no! I'm a junk baller. But my motion is VERY distracting!!!

And if our catchers keep hitting around .100, I think we'll be seeing LQ and vaff behind the dish before season's end!

I like this version of Matz. More of this.

Now we need to stop making Velazquez look like Cy Young.
