He's not a rookie. He's been doing this for years. He was the guy the Nats kept around to make Rick Ankiel look like a winner.

0:26, what the fuck is going on with that thing to the right. Philly fans are such fucking disasters.
In his last outing with the Nationals, against first batter, he threw four pitches... 100 mph, 101 mph, 102 mph, 102 mph. Pretty fantastic for the 9th inninng. Except they were all balls.
What an oddly specific concern. I'd just leave it at: "God the hotel maids probably have a real mess to clean up after he checks out."
Why? South Florida sucks? It adds nothing to the country and the insistence that we put sports teams there really just wastes every one's time and money.
You worked too hard on that one.
I'm willing to bet it's not an uncommon story.
Yeah, never mind, dude. You clearly didn't bother to read any of my posts, so I really don't give a shit what you think.
So Doc, with your extensive medical knowledge and experience any other procedures you would regard as acceptable? You are known to be an expert in this field.
Why bring up equality? Because if you don't have a level playing field you don't have true competition. We don't have a level playing field, but it kind of resembles one. It's not a totally steep hill at this point.
If you turn off all rules, it will quickly become a farce. It will turn into the WWE. Vince McMahon will run it and everyone will be a jacked up monster and it will be boring and stupid.
True, you can't guarantee anything, but when you're dealing with top level athletes seeking any advantage to help them win, they will do ANYTHING. Sports Illustrated did a really great expose on steroids at the Olympics awhile back and they did a poll where they asked athletes the question: if there was something you…
It's like NASCAR. Most people aren't going to be able to put up the cash to field a NASCAR team. Some people can put up a team, but it will never, ever be competitive, and that just sucks for them. Sucks for the bottom. As for the top... it's highly competitive, so there's always going to be envelope pushing — you can…
So, are you going to guarantee that everyone gets equal access to the same advanced treatement techniques? This guy has way more resources (his own and the team's invested in him) than a single A player — why should that kid be disadvantaged? And this guy isn't going to have the resources that Stephen Strasburg has to…
Only if the MLB would let batters use artillery weapons instead of bats. There's a fine line between a field artillery shell and a wooden bat. WHY WON'T THE MLB BE REASONABLE ABOUT THIS?
Why not just have his arm replaced with a laser-sighted firing mechanism specifically designed to shoot baseballs? If science has the answer, why not consider it?
My grandfather did this on a regular basis with my father. It's kind of funny when he tells the stories, but mostly sad.
Luntz's real talent is renaming things to make them more palatable.
Better question is how many idiots are buying 3-d content?
Yes.
