Considering my original reply to you had nothing to do with Max Scherzer and you keep talking about him then yes, I am trying to figure out what you are rambling about.

My whole point was that sticky stuff turned an average pitcher elite, which is exactly what steroids do, so steroids do not necessarily have the bigger impact on performance.

BCR OUT!

Top 3rd of their LU goes 0-13.

They still put up 7 runs in a win.

Embarrassment of riches.

Meh. Padres will be better in the two hole when Ohtani joins the team next season.

Goes 0-5 and still gets an article from SI about the great play. Yeah, nobody cares about Tatis. He's washed up.

Pretty lame, it’s like writing because you need to write something and what usually turns into a shitty and unnecessary article.

SI hasn’t been relevant in almost 20 years

We’ve also seen an uptick in homers. Is it the juiced balls or pitchers no longer getting away with an advantage?

No but I was expecting the catcher to slowly turn his head around.

SI’s sole purpose, as with ESPN, is to highlight polarizing players to increase viewer traffic.

Isn't that the truth. That was literally the last time I even thought about SI. It was "relevant" news at the time, but had an actual longterm negative impact on their business.

Their hitting coach has about a week left before he’s canned. A bottom three offense from this group is unbelievable. Only thing keeping them from being the worst is Boegarts. Everyone else is terrible.

Fixed it for you. They have two. Maybe that's the problem.
