What is happening. Welcome to the Plus Pitch Podcast. More pitching podcast from PitcherList.com. My name is Nick Pollack. Today is Friday, August 9th, and yes, we are going to talk about baseball. Nestor Cortez. He was singled out in this game with 4.2 innings of 6-100 runs, one walk and 2Ks. Thing is, that fifth inning, he could have gotten out of it with just 200 runs. It didn't go his way. And then he was removed at four and runs with two men on base who of course scored. It's unfortunate. However, this was the seventh start in eight games for Nester Cortez where he's allowed at least three earned runs. That is just

one game under three earned runs in his last eight now, which is ridiculous. 625 ERA 144 whip

in the seven games before this one in 36 innings.

And now, of course, I got worse.

He gets the White Sox next.

You're going to go with that one, but yeah, this is not fun.

Brian Sammons was open for against the Mariners for the Tigers.

So remember that when he realized it was 4.1 innings of one-odd-run. He would have gotten a win if not for late-ending heroics by the Mariners. Still, Brian Sammons is not a guy you want to finagle and go,

oh man, I'm going to get some Volter wins with this. It's going to be great. No, no, no,

don't deal with this. Teller Anderson against the Yankees. He's been so good this year. three it's one walking seven strikeouts got to win 14 whiffs change was we're down it's an amazing change up it's a better change up the last year four seamers got a

ton of vert 19 inches worth it's really cool seeing that even though it's at low

velocity it pairs so well with the change up they make each other better and then

of course the cutter is a really good strike pitch it's like the best

relationship you know they make each other better separate they're happy but then bring them together and they

just add to each other's lives don't make it just different anyway Tyler

Anderson's really good you should feel really good about him moving forward

David Peterson was PL bots stream pick of the day I said that's silly this isn't

course David Peterson isn't that great what do you know got the win five innings one-ed-run for its three walks five k's 16 whiffs for a gallows pole his blake stone blueprint was

amazing change-ups and sliders are down four seamers were upstairs eight whiffs on that four seamer is pretty

cool too huge props for this he gets the athletics next I guess that's fine I don't really love

Peterson overall here but that is the most impressive. I've seen him.

And I gotta say, Peelbot is kicking my butt right now, and it's really annoying.
