Guys: Kershaw can go 140 tonight, he's a stud! Truly, he may be the best ever. Oh, he's given up four so far (through four). He's clearly hurt, otherwise he'd be dominating these guys like we talked about earlier.

I hate the whole, "he's young, he doesn't understand that he's supposed to be nervous" sentiment. Players are young, not stupid.

 

Building on it, the young guys have less experience to lean on in these situations.

Theoretically, a young team can't do this.

Buck, just because it wasn't measured back in the day I'm sure pitchers preferred soft hit balls to hard hit balls

[The Other One]

Think they pull Kershaw soon to save him for tomorrow?

[Billy_Buck]

Smoltz tonight: Kershaw is a horse who they'll ride as long as needed, even if it takes 140 pitches. But we have to recognize he might be hurt and not 100%, so this beating doesn't count. =D>

 

And Kyle Hendricks should be lucky to be on the same mound as him for his maximum of 5 innings where he just tries to give his team a chance.

Kyle is the fittest man alive, so it's not a fair comparison. Kershaw is at maybe 5%, 10% tops.

Nobody has more stamina than Clayton Kershaw.

[Careless]

Why would you pull Hendricks while he's cruising like this, Smoltz?

[Bull]

Kyle can't be trusted with a 4 run lead to go more than 6. Idiots.

Faced the minimum number of batters and talking about unloading the bullpen.

outside of the obvious nothing would make me happier with this than Kyle going all 9

[Thusly Boned]

Why would you pull Hendricks while he's cruising like this, Smoltz?

 

Because he desperately wants to be right about something.

[MarkR]

12 more to go. Oh my god, its happening.

[USSoccer]

Smoltz up there with Silky Johnston for Hater of the Year

[minnesotacubsfan]

Smoltz: they might pull him after 5

 

 

Less then55 pitches and he's dominating? Really John?
