Erik Estrada

[bricks]

Folks, I don't know what to say about this guy to determine whether or not he is good? You know, his last two outings were damn impressive. He pitched two consecutive outings where he took no hitters into the 8th inning. No bluejay pitcher has done that since Dave Steib.

Here are a few of Marco Estrada stats for this season:

5 wins, 3 losses, 3.45 era, 77IP, 63 SO, and a Whip of 1.096. That's pretty impressive. Now if you look at his stats from years past, they're pretty average. But, remember this is a guy who isn't a consistent starter year in and year out. He alternated a lot between being a long middle inning reliever and a spot starter. This year he looks like he could start and has been more than what the bluejays have asked for. Could he be a pitcher on the rise? Maybe. Maybe he is one of those guys that's like a fine wine and gets better with age. Maybe he is the hidden gem? I hope he is bros. Royals fans beware. You should keep your eyes on him. He might be tough for you guys to play against? Just a heads up homies

You want good beer? You know who has their sh*t down when it comes to beer? The ****ing Germans.

I'm tellin ya. They got Spaten, Becks, Lowerbrau, Wernesgruner. Drink that sh*t with Prezels and man were talking some good combos there.

And none of this baby stuff you know drinking out of a 341ml bottle, naw man were talking some ****in 500ml stuff. Tall mugs or cans. Drink that sh*t cold, and I think it's sometimes better than sex. Depending on my mood.

If I don't have sex or women, at least I got German beer. **** yeah!

You know what Estrada means in English?

Street.

So the guy who is pointing at his glasses is kinda like saying, "that's the word on the street!"

Estrada is the word on the street Royals fans.

I LOVE THE MOD ABUSE ON THIS ONE!

I was at the Rays and Blue Jays game on Wednesday in St. Pete that Estrada pitched. Most impressive was the catch by the 3rd basement for Toronto falling into the stands, it was on SportCenter. Also, I think it was in the ninth, the Rays had men on 1st and 2nd and they were both running, and the batter hit a line drive back to the pitcher. He threw to first, but threw the ball away. Evan Longoria was all the way down to third, and he had to run back to 2nd to tag, and dove in, only to see the ball go past the first basement, so Longoria took off for third again. So he went down to third, back to second, down to third. It was something to see.

If Estrada were a baseball stock...

And this is legal, no? I clicked under a headline that says other sports and this is a place where one could talk about anything and it's America too! Freedom of speech. Plus, hey I figured it's always good to be openminded when it comes to sports.

Just think about how good this can really be? If Marco Estrada turns out to be a superstar pitcher and beats the Royals, then maybe one could pull up this thread for future references and if he stinks it up, then shame on me for talking too soon lol

But hey I don't care. This is all in fun. Settle down bro. Come on man you're better than this. You have thicker skin than this.

eh, doode, this is a football site k'
and the only baseball anybody gives a fook aboot is the Royals?
get a molsons and chill
or go out to the shed
eh, take off hoser


you need to talk to them in their own language
