Nobody Cares Now Recap:
I knew it was a loser from the first pitch. Neither guy on the mound had it tonight. I really loved the stats too. Barria and Giolito couldn’t stop throwing it down the middle. Maybe I shouldn’t put trust in a closer and a pitcher struggling this year. Fuck. I have to get right. I need to get some wins because this juice is killing me too. It is shocking MLB NRFI are still favored the way they are. It should really be toss up at this point. This has made me think of taking a tie in the first but I can’t now. I have to avoid these run mines and find shutouts. I have to. On to the next.
Lock: Royals/Guardians NRFI
Groundbreaking Analysis:
Going for a redemption. Greinke played great for me last time but the other pitcher who shall not be named fucked it for me. He gets me a win today. Bieber has also been lights out in the first inning. These pitchers make a perfect combo for a nrfi. I don’t like that the series hasn’t had a run yet in the first but that is not how stats work. They work with averages and these pitchers have great first inning shutout averages. I just need a clean 6. I am in love with the stats today. They are perfect. It’s time for a run. Please send some PLP.
