the mlb HR leader this year is a pitcher with 100 mph fast ball
And I know one betting site that hasn’t adjusted.
Oh and he has 6 stolen bases.
This play was nuts. Odor scored from 1st. Both he and the catcher knocked out of the game.

I like pre-2000s basketball but there were a lot of 85-79 games when the game was more physical. “Physical” meant you were allowed to foul people, lol
I thought I understood physics and rotational mechanics.
I do not.

Yeah those overlays are nuts. The craziest ones to me are the 2 seam fastballs that come in just as fast but have a ton of late break and are thrown with a similar arm motion. Curves are a bit easier to pick up because the pitchers arm motion and ball spin are easier to spot.
Back in HS I actually hit curveballs pretty well because I could pick up the spin and time the break pretty well, and the slower speed helped me. Once pitchers got to about 80MPH I couldn’t really hit the fastballs anymore, but one thing that’s consistent in HS is that on an 0-2 count you’re getting a curveball, so against power arms I would just stare at the first two fastballs then go after the curve. Then one day I was up against a guy who was clocked at 95MPH as HS sophomore (he ended up getting as high as AAA for the d’backs). I got down 0-2. Sure enough the curveball came in, and it was faster than most pitchers fastballs. I was actually proud of myself for it not being a pure K, I tipped it into the catchers glove.

Thanks for the W, Tony.
most impressive thing, 20 of 21 first pitches for strikes. Kansas kid has arrived.
boom boom Mancini
8 innings, no hits no walks no errors. i think that should count as perfect
first no hitter since 1959 for the orioles. i wonder how many no walks, no runs, no errors, no hbp, no hitters were there in history.
looks pretty perfect to me

On a slightly different topic. What does a red “edit” button mean on one entry on my contests page on DK? I got one and don’t know what it means.
not sure what you mean. maybe you have players from a ppd game?
Nope. Entry looks fine. I’m just going to roll with it. The edit button under “status” is colored red on one entry. I dunno.
That not being a perfect game is some horseshit but I understand why.
