Throwback to Miguel Castro vs. Ketel Marte:
The Greatest Sword of All Time. 🐐⚔️
The Greatest Sword of All Time. 🐐⚔️
I laughed at this much harder and much longer than I probably should have 😂
I know he has a high walk rate and got lucky with the amount of runners stranded and unearned runs… but, why are people so down on @DylanCease when he’s amongst the best at avoiding hard contact and maintains such high k upside?! @PitchingNinja make it make sense!
.@MLBNow counted down their top 10 starting pitchers, so we brought @PitchingNinja in to give his #Top10RightNow heading into next season.

Hey @PitchingNinja what do you got on the spin on that slider, my friend? Love to know!!
I could listen to @PitchingNinja and @CodifyBaseball talk pitching all day. If you have the time, watching this Mt Rushmore of Pitching video. So happy JR Richard was mentioned. So underrated.

Gallen has been a snub on everyone’s list.
What’s up with Fried? I’m fine not top 10, as you said too 10s are hard, but he’s certainly better and more proven than some of these guys you mentioned here. Was he in consideration at all?
31.6 percent of Emmanuel Clase's career pitches have been for 100+ mph.
does Spencer Strider have the best stuff in the MLB??
If I didn’t see people actually do it, I would certainly be convinced that hitting a major league pitcher is impossible.
The K rate is one area that Max lags behind, but for a guy who finished 2nd in Cy Young voting for the NL to not even crack the top 10 of "right now" pitchers was shocking to me. But love the love for Strider, he's a fan favorite around here taking 99 as his number this season pic.twitter.com/CNWuPjTsZG
I understand why you have Verlander however in the most crucial games he could not get the job done. Make the list with this in mind, who do you want on the mound in a winner take all game 7?
