Game thread 8/24/24 Oooohhh that Snell, can you Snell that Snell

Post by DavidGee24 » Sat Aug 24, 2024 7:22 am

I wanted Snell, and he wanted to pitch for the Mariners. If we'd signed him and he didn't get a late start to spring training and thus injured, he's putting up Cy Young Award numbers for us. Even with our staff, he would have put us over the top, plus we could've traded for hitting although it would have meant giving up Miller or Woo.

Check out Kirby's ERA in his first 3 seasons:
3.39
3.35
3.40

I wonder what the MLB record is for the closest string of ERAs in a pitcher's first 3 seasons. I doubt anyone is really even close to this.

Let's go out there, knock the Gnats down, and fart on their heads again.

Welcome to California! You got lucky and missed the string of 100+ degree days. Thousand Oaks, right?

Arrozarena will go to Hollywood after baseball.
Both him and Robles could be good actors.

Thank God. That inning couldve been disasterous in various ways.
