The Colorado Rockies play at home in the NL, and the Nationals offense is in the NL.

Also Colon, Arroyo, Tyler Anderson and Matt Harvey are in the NL.

So you're saying the Cubs have played exactly as well as they were before the 18 inning game then?

They were playing .516. The Yankees were playing .689 ball. Combined they are doing much worse.

Pitchers from Asia, don't seem to have the same shelf life as other pitchers for whatever reason.

Nothing to do with strength of schedule or just form or anything.

you're simply not understanding the effect an 18 inning game has on starting pitchers who didn't pitch that night, bro

Andrew Miller is killing it this year. I've barely heard mention of him.

Castro has 3 errors in the 10 games since then.

That ump should be fired for not clearing the plate.

It's a PR move and part of the ongoing purposeful destruction of Jace Peterson's career

What do you have against Jace Peterson

They seem to think giving him his 5 to 10% chance at becoming a big league hitter is worthless because of the 0.01% chance they make the playoffs

He's 19 and so far all tools with no power or plate discipline

But I mean he's also a 19-year old holding his own in the Sally League and people like his defensive potential up the middle

So he's far away and the Braves are in love with Dansby and Albies as a keystone combo

But I think you could do better if you're gonna trade him if youre not broadcasting to everybody that you're desperate for a replacement level 1B
