Wow. I didn't watch until the end, but his control must've been awful with 6 walks and only 2 Ks. First career complete game too.

Good for him! His first complete game also. 6BB's though and over 120 pitches which is never good for an injury prone youngster but I'm glad he got it.Comment

I don't know about that. I had an offer where I got him and I'm no more inclined to take it right now than I was earlier today. He obviously just quelled the Slowey replacing him talk, but he I'm not ready to become president of his fanclub just yet. As no hitters go, that one didn't inspire a great deal of confidence that he is back to dominating.Originally posted by TopChuckie View PostComment

they all count as "no hitters" though...."You know what's wrong with America? If I lovingly tongue a woman's nipple in a movie, it gets an "NC-17" rating, if I chop it off with a machete, it's an "R". That's what's wrong with America, man...."--Dennis Hopper

Right. I would think the ones that would suck would be if your team lost the game. Otherwise, a no-hitter is pretty cool.Originally posted by Fresno Bob View Post"Jesus said to them, 'Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you.'"Comment

Guy in my non-RJ league benched him this week in favor of Leake. No surprise he's in dead last by a significant margin.If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

Is benching Liriano with the way he had been pitching an indicator of a no-nothing bottom feeder? Given how horrid he was prior to the no hitter, I don't see the correlation.Originally posted by DMT View PostComment

I think there is a big difference between the guy receiving Liriano and the guy giving him up. The owner who has Liriano was a believer in him when he obtained him and no one wants to sell low, but sometimes one can take advantage of another owner's frustration. Last night went a long way towards reassuring Liriano's current owners that they were right all along, whether that is actually correct or not.Originally posted by Sour Masher View Post
If you were a doubter there is plenty of reason to still be a doubter, but if you were a Liriano owner searching for something to justify your faith, you just got it.Some people say winning isn't everything. I say those people never won anything.
Quitters never win, winners never quit, but those who never win AND never quit are idiots.
