That doesn't make sense. Like, it just does not compute. For 10 years, he *averaged* a 2.29 ERA in 34 starts.

Then he got old, hurt all the time, lost his velo....and his ERA dropped to 2.93

Clayton Kershaw had a 4.26 ERA as a rookie in 107.2 IP

He didn't have an ERA higher than 3.55 in a season until 2024, when he had a 4.5 ERA in 30 IP

Since 2009, his 3 highest ERAs in a season where he made 10 or more starts are 3.55, 3.36, and 3.03

The AL's representative in the World Series will either be the Tigers (haven't been since 2012), Blue Jays (haven't been since 1993), or the Mariners (have never played in a World Series).

Dumb game. Played p well. Power play stinky. Onto Islanders

They have no players who will lose you games. They also have no players who will win you games by themselves
jakenazar.bsky.social
They have a bunch of really darn good players

They do not have a single great player. Great players win games

The Caps have 28 shots; the Bruins have 13. The Bruins lead 2-1 because David Pastrnak just made 2 plays.

That basically sums up the entire battle the Caps are fighting as a team right now

1/2 on the PP vs 0/5. Sick!

Only Nixon could go to China, only Pitino could coach Kentucky and Louisville

Good call tho
jakenazar.bsky.social
Pitino is as good at coaching as he is morally depraved. The Nixon of college basketball

The Mariners don’t even have one! It’s absurd.

The Marlins once went over 4 years without wearing theirs and it was an actual unform that existed the whole time too.

oh no question. i just think back when offense mattered less and you could get by with defense/ST, he'd have been able to plug along for longer and ran his way into a good hire for a year or two

if you gave this team 3 mins of power play time when Nick Backstrom was on the half wall the game was o-va
jakenazar.bsky.social
remembering the days when the Caps Power Play was the bees knees....

I'm as big a fan of the baby blue road look as anyone. If you can pull off the baby blue look, no problem

But why are the Brewers and Mariners wearing dark jersey colors. Wear grey
jakenazar.bsky.social
Too many MLB teams wear their color alternate on the road instead of their greys

That was a very "first period back to start the season" type period

I can’t see him doing the all the 1sts + big contract unless it’s a slam dunk and I don’t think that’ll be available. It’ll have to be taking a chance on like a Nazar-type guy when he hits RFA status

I don’t think there’s any world where Muschamp is ever, like, a great coach but he really got in at the wrong time. Right as the SEC was moving away from his whole ethos and style. He probably finds a weird OC who could do some cool stuff in the run game and wins a division title or two in the 2000s
