With his second strikeout Tuesday, he surpassed the Phillies’ José Alvarado for the most strikeouts in a row by a pitcher since at least 1961. (Play-by-play data isn’t fully available before then, so it’s impossible to know the all-time record.) Estrada finished the night by tacking on a 13th straight, for good measure.
Estrada was at his own birthday dinner in early November when he received a call from his agent letting him know he’d been placed on outright waivers by the Cubs. His 2023 season, in no uncertain terms, was a rough one. Between Triple-A and the Majors, Estrada walked an unsightly 38 batters across 39 1/3 innings. A few days later, he was claimed by the Padres.
“We knew the stuff was there,” pitching coach Ruben Niebla said. “It was just a matter of how consistent he can be in the zone.”
Now? It feels like Estrada lives in the strike zone, with a 7-1 strikeout-to-walk ratio this season. All it took was a mechanical overhaul and a complete reinvention of his two offspeed pitches. No biggie.
While I do agree that Tolkien’s work is exceptional, The Wheel of Time shows us that studios have no problems with fucking up good source material. So it can probably go either way
Sure, but results in the past give no guarantees about how successful a future endeavour can be.
I’m not trying to take a side here, but just reserving judgement.
Same here. But sadly too many people were swayed by the populist parties and their ‘this one trick will fix everything’ rhetoric.
That’s one of the busiest intersections in Utrecht, especially in the weekend with buses, cyclists, pedestrians and some cars. It’s pretty easy to navigate too
Like others have said, usually there’s a bolt on the underside, but I have trouble seeing it in this picture. In some faucets (also some Grohe) there’s an Allen inside the faucet. Remove the spout by loosening the ring around the spout and there should be a threaded rod in which fits an Allen key.
I thought it was, but did a quick search and turns out it isn’t. Might rethink and look for a different app in general
Yes, it does. But it would be handy if there was also a cross-post button in connect, instead of copying everything or going to the desktop site
That’s ridiculous. Baseball should always come before work. Someone should get a firm talking to.
I don’t really see the point in using the helmet anyway, besides that it’s funny. Maybe you get a little more extension, but it just seems risky
At least they’ve got furry balls coming towards them
I hope so too for you guys, When does he become a free agent?
Doesn’t that only count for stopping live balls in play? And it seems to me that he intended a shuffle
Probably, but he has dialed his rhetoric down a bit in an effort to seem more reasonable and stay in the talks to form a coalition. But I don’t trust it one bit, if he had enough right-wing support, he would still spout the same bullshit. Luckily our democracy is well designed enough that he can’t just tear it down, even if he had a majority.
If he becomes anything like Rizzo then you guys are in a good spot the next couple of years
He hit 4. 16 would be awesome though! But I see it now, I’ll edit the title
Or at least get rid of Angel. I don’t know if they’ll move on to robo-umps, but a challenge system would be an improvement
Well, I’m Dutch and English is not my first language. Anyway, i’ve seen it used in a couple sports headlines in a positive manner, so I figured it was a thing
The transfer into proton is indeed very easy and with their family pack you also get Mail, Drive, VPN, Calendar and they keep working on adding more. Very happy with proton and their fight for privacy
