I think this is a good answer.

Also Bochy doesnt seem to be the magician he once was anymore.

royals had i think 3 homers in 4 at bats yesterday then back to back to back today


they have 121 homers so far this season. had 95 total in 2014 when they made the WS with largely the same core (gordon, perez, moose, hosmer, cain, escobar) then 139 2015 and 147 last year. the damn ball is juiced

Last edited by jenningst77; 07-23-2017 at 03:31 PM. Reason: i guess moose was gone most of last year but still

When people say the "ball is juiced" what exactly is it that you are claiming?

royals can't keep throwing out travis wood or some AAA scrub every 5th day plus vargas had -3 mph average yesterday at 84 mph fastball which is concerning given he is coming off TJ surgery. if they actually want to give themselves a small chance to have a last hurrah they need to get some semi-competent mediocrity like jaime garcia or whatever. i thought wood would be a competent loogy this year out of the bullpen but he forgot how to pitch

beast- i'm not an expert but the ball they are using this year cannot be the same as the ball they used 2 or 3 years ago

Wrapped tighter. Lower profile laces

All the blisters could be from pitchers squeezing harder to get the grip they are used to.

Is players flipping their bat after any kind of line drive becoming more of a thing? I'm a fan but it can look hilariously dumb when it's a lineout to 2nd

Robbie Ray is a fraud. The Dbacks are likely frauds. Their manager is absolutely a fraud.

Yeah the rotation blows.. Wood has Aids... Hammel has Ebola. You have confidence when Kennedy toes the bump? They don't have enough.

I seriously doubt if you compare a ball from today to 20 years ago there would be any difference.
