Super User Jar11591 Posted June 20, 2014 Super User Posted June 20, 2014 Rumor: Atlanta pursuing Samardzija! This might actually happen now that Floyd is back on the DL. Also heard the Braves are interested in Peavy. Quote

Also heard the Braves are interested in Peavy. If I had to guess the Braves will land Peavy, I seriously doubt that The Cubbies will let Samardzija go. He's got some nasty stuff and he's young, way too much upside potential to let go. Â Peavy has been pitching really well all season, the Sox aren't scoring any runs for him. Quote

Â Â Â You're probably right, although Samardzija did just turn down an extension offer from the Cubs. I think he might have realized that Garza was right, and he needs to get out of Chi-town if he wants a career. I wouldnt mind Peavy though. He is a true competitor, even if he isn't the Cy Young caliber Peavy anymore. 1 Quote
Super User MCS Posted June 23, 2014 Super User Posted June 23, 2014 Jeff is gone, I agree with you jar he don't want no more of the losing and rebuilding which has been constant in his time there plus I don't think the cubs will invest that kind of money....I hear the cubbies got a couple of farm hands comping to come up. Third baseman and a shortstop(Baez). Look for Smardizja, valbuena, and castro to be moved by the deadline. 1 Quote
Super User MCS Posted June 26, 2014 Super User Posted June 26, 2014 Lincecum no hitter! Crazy he was just about written off 1 Quote
Denea Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Lincecum no hitter! First pitcher in 104 years to no hit the same team. Last pitcher to do that was Addie Joss for the Cleveland Naps in 1908 & 1910 versus the White Sox.  I wish still I had his signed rookie card, but I sold it back in 2010. 1 Quote

He also joins Randy Johnson, Sandy Koufax, and Roy Halladay as the only pitchers in history with multiple Cy Young awards and multiple no hitters. 2 Cy Youngs, 2 no hitters, and 2 World Series rings. That's a career right there. 2 Quote

I always enjoyed watching him in his prime, little surfer dude with GAS!!!! I kinda hate to see the way he faded, lost the juice, but he is learning to pitch. Maybe this is a rebirth, get a third CY and ring LOL Quote
Super User Jigfishn10 Posted June 26, 2014 Super User Posted June 26, 2014 I always enjoyed Lincecum pitch, unfortunatley I can only see him on a limited basis, but he always had great stuff.  Kind of reminds me of Clay Buchholz. Skinny kids that look like they weigh 145 lbs soaking wet with cowboy boots on, but on mound they can be unhittable. You think to yourself, "How?"...LOL Quote
Super User MCS Posted June 27, 2014 Super User Posted June 27, 2014 Heading down to Dayton tonight I think. Me and my dad are going to take my oldest daughter to a baseball game, her first. Suns are out of town this weekend, last weekend we were busy baby turned one. So an hour an a half drive to see an advanced A game lol. It will be worth it though. 1 Quote
Super User MCS Posted June 28, 2014 Super User Posted June 28, 2014 Game was good. Two kids with losing records went 6 shutout. Great defense. So how bout the second baseman on Houston stealing home lol. Have him on a fantasy team. He is dyno-mite on the base paths! 1 Quote

He leads the AL in batting too. Yeah man give me a pitchers duel with some nasty Ks and stellar defense any day. Anyone see Jesse Hahn pitch for is it minn or Pitt? I hear he throws a pretty nasty 12-6 curve 30-40% of the pitches he throws!!! Altuve hit .500 for the week with 10 steals! Quote

Super User Jar11591 Posted June 30, 2014 Super User Posted June 30, 2014 If the season ended today, who do you think should be MVP/Cy Young recipients? My picks are: AL MVP- Nelson Cruz. Monster start on a team that is dealing with under-performers and injuries, and had kept the Os afloat. Runner up-Victor Martinez AL Cy Young- Masahiro Tanaka. Obvious choice for me. Every start has been a quality start. He's a beast. Runner up- Felix Hernandez NL MVP- Giancarlo Stanton. The Marlins would be sunk without him, and he's had another insane start. Runner up- Troy Tulowitski NL Cy Young- Johnny Cueto- Sub 2.00 ERA, sub 1.00 WHIP Runner up- Adam Wainwright. 1 Quote
