Looks to be the real deal so far. We'll see how he does when pitchers inevitably adjust.
Which publication(s) and/or websites would have:
Score after 1st inning for pitcher career?
2. Team score after 1st inning. (Team and opponent)
Relativity:
I am wanting to establish odds on 1st inning No Score along with 1st inning Tied wagers.
Baseball Reference should have sortables like this.
HR in 2nd career at bat
He's gonna be good.
Schwarber homers in top 8 to give a nice insurance run to make it 5-3 Cubs.
One of the best relief staff in MLB.
Bottom 8 Kyle Ryan comes in and gives up a lead off single.
At this point, Maddon brings in Syd from Ice Age. Excuse me Carl Edwards Jr.
ERA? 11.32. Was just down in AAA.
Phucker gives up a two run bomb and it's tied. Cubs go on to choke in extra innings.
WTF was Maddon thinking about? Overcoaching dipstick.

^ mid i am still fumigating over this parlay buster. Any thought on why the h Maddon chose that particlar time to work Carls Jr. back into the lineup?
. I bet. Not sure. Maddon likes to get cute sometimes. Probably trying to get Carls Jr. going maybe.
up to 17 HR, had a 6 RBI night last night. Stros need to call him up already.
This is exactly what he was trying to do. , CJ's first appearance back from AAA was with Cubbies nursing a 1 run lead against the Marlins. He's trying to project confidence in the kid to get him going. Sucks that it backfired, but I don't mind Maddon taking the chance. I don't really trust anyone in the pen besides Morrow & Strop, and neither one is available atm. Really need someone else to step up consistently in the set-up role.
Why not choose to try and "get him going" in a game like yesterdays late Cubs 14-4 blowout? Vs a 1 run farking game vs Miami.
The game Im talking about what frys me is he puts him in after giving the reliever who started the inning one farking batter.
How about keeping that guys confidence up?
Like mid said, he tries to get wayy too cutesy.
Adding this guy to the Astros lineup won't be fair .
Dude is on fire through his first 15. 1.533 OPS.
He struck again
If Tatis can get back to healthy, the ROTY race between these two will be fun.
That's right, he qualifies. I also forgot about Pete Alonso, so I guess the real race is between these two and probably Chris Paddack.

This pitch (new pitch. Don't think I've seen a knuckle-split hybrid before).
Matt Harvey 2nd inning 0-0.
single
single
wild pitch
sac fly
walk
homer now 4-0
line out
double
another homer.
6-0
He's been central to Braves success too
"With his 8th inning home run today, austinriley1308 became the first #Braves player in the last 111 years to hit five homers within his first nine career games, and just the ninth player to do so in all of baseball history"
This is why baseball>basketball. If your team scouts and develops right, you can have a "lottery pick/future star" routinely coming to the team. Whereas in the NBA, you have to sit with your tongue out hoping the ping pong balls bounce your way or that one of the league's best 5 players signs with your team. Kawhi's leaving, for instance, set the Spurs back probably a decade or more. Losing Bellinger would hurt, but it's nothing the Dodgers couldn't recover from relatively quickly, since their farm system is always among the best in baseball. Individual players just don't have the same impact in the sport, you can't "force feed" Mike Trout at bats, for instance.
Bullpen blew another one. Literally can't trust anyone on the staff in crucial situations.
