Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire MLB observations so far

Scherzer is a classic drop and drive pitcher who reminds me a lot of how Tom Seaver used to pitch. Great follow-through.

Go Astros, I wish they would change the name back to Colt 45's

Yeah Scherzer is a first class no nonsense special pitcher. Could not believe Detroit let him go. Fister as well but he's moved on.

I love the way Max shakes off the unwanted sign and then okay's the next during his windup. All in the same motion. When he really gets going and stalks the mound he's unbeatable. Nats are lucky to have both Strasburg and Max!! AND both can hit.

Oakland this weekend and then onto the Dodgers, which will be the real test.

Nats are just crushing it on this West coast swing. 19 hits in 8 games games and it ain't over yet. Plus the big taters just keep on coming!!!

Tonight....13-2 Nats top of the 8th. Strasburg with less than a full hand of hits and a bunch of K's.

Just keeps getting better!!!

Been a 'Stros fan since I was a kid in the late 60's. Just watched on TV Springer go deep against the Rangers.

As for your question about Beltran earlier about the HOF. I really hope not. And this is my opinion...I hate to see them start putting rent-a-players in there. His regular season stats are good, but not great. I just hate to see the HOF cheapened which it seems to be doing in some ways.

And if anyone is still paying attention to this thread, I'd like to ask you gentlemen a question and not trying to start a fight. Why is it that so many players during the PED era are getting shunned for the HOF vote, even if they have had no known connection to PED's and yet it seems that Pujols has never been mentioned and everyone is quite anxious to put him in the hall? And the dude is big! Just curious to the thoughts of others. What am I missing? Or has he been the face of baseball and no one wants to tarnish it?

I'm just glad to see the Twins being competitiveafter their horrific season last year. Middle relief for them is an adventure though.

Royals still suck, Mo. river sewage water!!!!! hahahhha

Okay, so what's with the drums, horns, cowbells, tick tocks etc in OAK that go well into opposing batters at the plate?

Don't watch many American League games so never really noticed it before. Is this part of money ball?

Nats - Dodgers play big boy baseball this week. I know there are no tribal drums there!!
