He came to the Mets last year and looked at what made Chris Sale so successful for the Braves after injury. It turns out that lowering your arm angle at the point of delivery makes it harder for hitters to judge late movement. Manaea restructured his pitching delivery and hence his success since then.

JohnS Posted June 16 Posted June 16 I don't know. On face value, it looks like an awesome deal for the San Francisco Giants, but if Rafael Devers come to his new team with a continued "me-first" attitude, it's going to look like a great deal for the Boston Red Sox in the long run. Summing up, he needs to show some leadership qualities in San Francisco. Hitting won't be enough. 1

I seem to recall hearing a few things about his 'me, me, me' attitude. I would also think that the reality in the clubhouse is worse than what the general public hears. If that is indeed the case, then smart move for Boston I think. Doesn't make it any easier for the fans however. In other baseball news: Thought I heard Ohtani is due to pitch later tonight. Curious how he fares without the benefit of a true rehab assignment. SUPER bummed about my Tigers loosing Jackson Jobe for the year; expectations were really high for this kid. But I guess Tommy John comes for them all nowadays. 1

KCCubano Posted July 11 Posted July 11 @JohnS We have the Mets in town for a three game set this weekend. Big series for both teams before heading into All Star break. 1
Ford2112 Posted July 11 Posted July 11 Giants and Dodgers tomorrow night. We are 5 games back and in the thick of it. I am stoked where the Giants are right now heading into the break. So far its been a wild ride.

Dlowil Posted July 11 Posted July 11 I haven’t watched much baseball this year. Growing up in Vegas I grew up an A’s and Braves fan. Looking forward to the A’s move to Vegas. Now living in Denver for the past 20 years I’ve naturally followed the Rockies. They are abysmal. I did watch the Yankees and Mariners last night. The work Devin Williams did was impressive!

Nice stadium though. I have been to 2 games there all decked out in my Giants gear and bashing all those rag tag fans. There is no dignity in Denver when it comes to baseball! 2

Ford2112 Posted July 12 Posted July 12 Last night's game against LA was insane! Big series for us and of course the Plodgers are going to give us all we can handle. Pitching is good albeit a good break here will do good. Adames and Lee had big nights last night. I love my team. But they make me insane sometimes giving up an 8-2 lead. Game at 1:05.

There is no dignity in Denver when it comes to baseball!Coors Field is awesome. There has been some talented players come through. They just don’t focus on player development. Monfort family should sell the team. And don’t get me started on the average Colorado sports fan…

Ford2112 Posted July 14 Posted July 14 Devers better start hitting. But yes we need a first baseman with a bat. 1
