Yeah, not sure if avoiding Lester is such a good thing with the way Buchholz has started the season (looking at non-sabermetrical numbers, anyway).

It's possible that Buchholz just doesn't wash his hair... OR... Here's a list of possible substances in his hair:

1. Quaker State Motor Oil

2. Plutonium

3. Kryptonite

4. Keith Richards Urine

5. KY Jelly

6. Vegemite

7. Squid Ink

8. Robin Regurgitation.

9. Raindrops kept falling on his head.

Yeah but games are not "run by computer simulation".

 

I have asked for permission to use that line from Mike Wants Wins and I'm assuming permission will come. If not... I will respect his cease and desist.

yep... Trying to put a gap in my teeth as we speak... I never thought it would be as painful as it is... I think I have a better understanding for the need for novocaine now.

1-8 look more like a list of opening acts down through history at Megadeath concerts.

I believe that was the first swinging strike (and even that was a foul tip) induced by Worley this game. Another fun fact: running total of 0-2 counts that have not resulted in a strikeout so far: 3.

Haven't been able to watch most of Worley's starts. It's pretty clear why he can't make it six innings.

 

i had great seats from his last start behind home plate. The guy really needed to keep the ball down and mix it up.

 

He was up up up and he got scored on... He was down and he was effective. I also think he needs to use a breaking pitch more to off balance the hitters a little.

Why do I want to break into a Meat Loaf song and know I'm getting the lyrics wrong.
We could talk about that all night. But that won't get us nowhere.

Worley better figure it out quick because I don't see many runs off Bucholz tonight.

 

It can all change on a dime. Unfortunately... None of the Twins are compensated poorly enough to carry around dimes.

That's what we mean when we say pitching.
What it says to me is "minor league stuff." YMMV.
