He sucks. I love betting against him.
I also love setting piles of money on fire, and throwing away winning lottery tickets.

helps when Rob Drake is giving him 6 inches off the outside corner
91 falling off the table is pretty tough to hit, though

Even if this ends as a 1-0 shutout, TB was still a good value pick at +120 while on a 7 out of 8 streak.

I know the MLB gamecast on ESPN isn't super accurate, but they just put a red circle several inches off the plate and marked it "Strike (Looking)", which made me laugh.
I hope someone bunts their way on.

Yeah, this ump is giving King Felix everything. He shouldn't be calling those pitches strikes, the guy clearly swung at a ball out of the zone. It should thus be a free swing!

that's why Maddon got ejected.
Drake was giving him pitches three balls off the outside edge on the K-cam. Completely changed ABs to Joyce and Rodriguez, but the 91mph "change-up" as the Seattle booth was calling it just dropped off the table all game.
He was fantastic
