Baseball's Most Hyped Player Is Here But There's a Problem 

Now I won’t forget your face

Either format works. Honestly just do whatever is easiest for yourself. Been here from basically the beginning it’s cool to see some changes too. Regardless still the first place I check for anything baseball!

i prefer old format sorry.

Love it ❣️

thats not accurate. doctors arent universal experts, humans arent clones of each other and arent experts on every human alive. there are players dont even have the ligament needed to tear their elbow. no, not all pitchers have a ticked time bomb in their elbows. they wouldnt suggest you get other doctors second opinions if every single doctor was a true expert on their opinions. nobody is an expert based on opinions

Yeah, even St. Nolan expired eventually.

But didn’t your elbow go from beating your meat between starts?

Because the analytics say that higher velocity and higher spin rates = better results. I don't like it. But that's the reality we live in now.

Hell, in an interview with Chris Rose, Tyler Glasnow said young pitchers nowadays (including himself) are totally ok with going max effort to get their name out there at the big league level and know going in that they will need Tommy John at some point. They see it as juat part of the game and are ok with it if they can still get the big contracts

Well said

The issue with that is pitchers that went 9 innings weren't throwing hard For every bib gibson and nolan ryan you had 100 joe smoes who topped out at 90

@@slaymyface1357 if it was more important to go 9 innings than pitch fast, today's pitchers mights throw similar to how they used to. The onus would be on longevity and durability. Instead it's on speed and power

@@maxherzog3287 todays pitches arent throwing like they used to decades ago. more players are throwing the ball harder than ever before. they arent doing anything like before

@@nomercyinc6783 that's what I just said

Yes because Maddux, had a 95-96 fastball when he needed it in prime.

@@AnsticePaloI thought it was more 93-92ish?

@@AnsticePalo It's insane how the radar-guns have skewed our perception of velocity over the years. Maddux did indeed throw hard, but the radar guns were clocking him at high 80s consistently. From what I understand, 95-96 mph is exactly where he'd sit now with statcast.

WWWW

Does your mom like to scissor?

How does being a Baton Rouge native have anything to do with that?

@@grandsalami3048 He played for LSU, LSU fans are fanatical.

All he needs is boudin. Boudin solves all your problems

@@bayoustate9481 Agreed.

Bauer isn’t tall

he’s going to dominate.

If this dude didn’t pitch well enough to get called up in your opinion, then nobody pitches well enough to get called up. The kid has more than earned his spot.

What’s the point of keeping a pitcher that’s doing well in the minors? There isn’t much for him to do more in AAA

BS

When I blow up you get to say you were here early. I appreciate your support more than you know. Thank you👊❤️

Your not concerned about the Pirates lack of run support? Or are you playing dynasty in which case kudos

Jared is a dawg. that so cal duo gonna feed families

@@pancakejonzze dynasty. Grabbed Mason Miller from waivers too

@@ryancarroll1697 Nice I grabbed Miller too, I have Jared Jones. Looks like Pitts bats are waking up

@@ryancarroll1697 Nice, I also grabbed Miller, I hope he gets traded to the O's. Jared Jones I picked up en lieu of Skenes and I am glad to see the Pirates bats showed up today, especially Oneil Cruz. I was starting to worry about him

Gee what would I rather do, throw as hard as I can and accumulate generational wealth for me and my family or understand biomechanics and human limits and become a Walmart greeter

Anish?

@@MiggerPlease damn, I hate that for you…..I have children, you should try it, it’s a blast!

Cautiously, yes. At least for me since it's so inevitable now

What does it matter if he throws a 100 in the minors vs the majors

@@teddyj5187 minors is where you build up a pitcher's reps, let him adjust and get deeper into games. Skenes has only gone to the 6th once usually only going 3 innings, now imagine going 3 innings on average, then telling them to go 5-6 every outing. Its a recipe for disaster

@@slaymyface1357 dude he was throwing over a 100 pitches a game in the minors.

@@slaymyface1357 college

@@slaymyface1357 135 innings last year between college and the minors. He was working on his secondaries has nothing to do with innings. Some people can throw a 100 pitches before the 5th inning.

No

Brings back memories bro 😢

Haha add that to the list of endless people I've been told I look like

You must be old then

@@InUteroKDC if 30 is old then its old IG 🤷🏽‍♂️

@@TyranoTortoise well, you’re a lot younger than I am at least 😆

Yeah, because it is annoying. And it's bringing weird stuff into another male hobby. I don't know if y'all have seen what happened to Star Wars, Marvel, and tons of other guy hobbies. I'm not saying that it's happening in pro sports, but this is the same first step. Bring in some women under mild pretenses, and criticize everyone who complains. Next is to start censoring and changing things to make it better for women. It's a corpo greed thing where they think they can spurn the target audience for a large casual audience by changing the product in a way that negates what once made it popular. And then no one likes it.

I would like to see him in that role, but the value that he (potentially) offers as a starter is impossible for the Pirates to not capitalize upon. Also, being a closer does not necessarily save one from future arm troubles (see: Felix Bautista).

​@@gusbensinger6345or soon , Mason Miller

@@gusbensinger6345 Starting pitching is definitely more valuable but a good closer is is harder to come by & could potentially benefit him later on, especially with most pitchers not going past the 7th anymore. I agree with you regarding potential future injuries, no matter if he’s a starter or closer. I know the Pirates already thought of those options anyway. I think little league needs to train pitchers to throw better pitches, not necessarily the fastest.

Finally a sane person

never wish that on someone ever stupid dodger fan

Exceptions do not disprove the rule

That doesn't even make sense
