Trevor Hoffman managed 600 saves mainly on the back of his changeup.

91?

Didnt Mariano Rivera's cutter top out around that and that's pretty much all he threw for the last 7 years of his career.

How about Koji Uehara. Short run, but effing guy was nails in 2013 topping out at around 88.

Wouldn’t consider Rivera to be a flamethrower by any means.

I have no illusions about this team, but damn it was fun just to watch baseball. Reminds me of the 70’s and 90’s.

It’s 16 of the 30 teams that make it each year and the last time someone under .500 made it was 14/15 season when the east was really shitty.

I wonder if more playoff teams makes it more interesting in a short season or just further increases randomness of it.

Lord knows that the best answer to a 162 game season is MORE playoffs and MORE randomness and each regular season game meaning even less.

What a stupid ****ing idea.

I get this, like DJ explained earlier, a week off the roster and we keep a year of control. This is a no-brainer. It’s just business. Hope he doesn't hold a grudge.
——————————————————————-

Dean and Carlson performed well throughout “Summer Camp,” but Dean had the edge of being on the 40-man roster. As a result the Cardinals can avoid losing a year of control by keeping Carlson off the roster for as little as a week in this shortened 60-game season.

Carlson was assigned to the alternate-site camp in Springfield, Mo., where he was Class AA Texas League’s player of the year in 2019.

“Honestly, I’m disappointed,” Carlson said. “I know this is a business and it’s a decision that was out of my control. I love everyone in that clubhouse and want to see them succeed. I am confident my time will come and in the meantime, I’ll be down in Springfield doing everything in my power to stay ready.”
