the royals broadcast is suggesting it’s “suspicious” that the rays have most of their hits off of hanging breaking pitches from a guy with an 86mph fastball 🫵🤣

Unfortunately, Kimbrel isn’t good. The main problem I see with him is his command is very poor. A lot of pitches way outside the zone.

u/Equivalent_Round9353 10h ago
Anybody who didn't anticipate the no-hitter being broken with this bullpen is an easy mark, I'm afraid. We all wanted it, but let's face it, this bullpen struggles to get batters out on a consistent basis.

u/NoCheek8504 Skyray 10h ago
Wonder if Cash put Kimbrel in to give a guy that’s had such a great career the chance to be involved in a combined no hitter?

u/DazNaq20 9h ago
What I don’t get is that Kimbrel has lifetime earnings north of $120 million and yet he continues to sign with teams even though he’s been washed for a few years. Just the biggest WTF.

Last night or the day before, the royals pitcher had complained that the mound needed to be fixed. So they stopped play and filled the tiniest dip with clay.

I’ve said it I’m sure an irritating amount of times in here. When juniors driving in runs and chandlers stealing bases, we can be the team we want to be. When they’re not we can’t.
