His MiLB results weren't that overwhelming either. He is incredibly inexperienced to be where he is, so it's unfair to expect more than he is doing, which is keeping them in almost all the games he starts. I think people have gotten their expectations skewed after watching Skenes, but Skenes is a true unicorn. Almost anyone else needs 500+ IP at least at college and/or MiLB to figure out what they are doing - Jobe is just starting to get there at 300 IP total as a pro. Edited May 28 by gehringer_2 Quote
Sports_Freak Posted May 28 Posted May 28 Tigers with a lead after 6 innings? Yeah, they usually win. Quote

I'm just wondering if a more experienced catcher would be able to help guide him a little more. Might be time to call in a "Crash" Davis type situation. Quote

IdahoBert Posted May 28 Posted May 28 I’m trying to decide if it’s safe for me to start following this game again. When I’m not paying attention all the good stuff happens. Quote

Sports_Freak Posted May 28 Posted May 28 Lol...Riley didn't stand a chance. That guy is unorthodox. Quote

slothfacekilla Posted May 28 Posted May 28 Did they say what happened with the grounds crew person? I don't have any volume on for the game sadly. Quote
oblong Posted May 28 Posted May 28 wounded grounds crew member. Person is awake and all of that but both teams trainers are out there along with an EMT. Wonder why they can't just lift him up? It's not a spinal thing as he's sitting up and talking and moving his arms around. Looks like a leg or foot thing. Quote
IdahoBert Posted May 28 Posted May 28 I wonder if the grounds crew guy wrenched his knee or something. Quote

IdahoBert Posted May 28 Posted May 28 These guys have to work real quick and you could make just one strange move and hurt yourself. Quote
