    I cant believe no one has picked up on it (networks). We (or I:D) was discussing it on the Cards-Mets thread.

    no hitter!!!

    125 pitches
  • Lovejoy1984
    Can't believe no where was streaming it online
  • Ironman92
    anyone that unhittable should be in the minors until they get their control down


    6 walks is ridiculous.....probably needs another 30-40 stats in the minors
  • Laley23
    Man, the wildness probably helped him tremendously! That is just incredible to have a no-no with so many walks. lol.
  • Quint
    125th pitch was 97 mph.

    That's absolute bull shit.
  • Ironman92
    Throws 99 mph...has control issues and is in the majors?????


    THAT'S absolute bullshit!

    11-3 since the All-Star break(tops in ML) and a 15 game winner last year, not to mention 3-0 this year and he should be in the Minors? SMH.

    E-knowing Ironman as I do, I'm guessing he's being really sarcastic due to how whatshisname (Chapman, Chatman) that the Reds signed to HUGE headlines is in AAA despite having amazing stuff...even though the only starter who's been performing particularly well for them is a rookie with no minor league experience.

    If thats the case his posts being sarcastic make sense.

    eh.....



    Ubaldo is awesome.

    IMO...IF you can throw different pitches and 95+ and hit spots well enough not too walk too many to give you a chance to win....YOU SHOULD BE IN THE MAJORS.

    Please enlighten me on what Aaron Harang, Homer Bailey and Johnny Cueto are bringing to the Reds. They are either completely hittable or throw so many darn pitches they can't go more than 5......but we have a guy in triple A that can hardly be hit? It's stupid and over-managing.

    Dewon Brazelton almost had one a couple years ago in a game where he had something like 11 walks.

    The best pitcher with no control would be Steve Dalkowski, who was the basis of Nuke LaLoosh in "Bull Durham". Consider these:
    - He threw a no-hitter in high school with 18 K's....and 18 walks
    - He threw a one-hitter in the minor leagues and lost 9-8
    - He struck out 24 hitters in a game in the minors and lost 8-4 (18 walks, 4 HBP, 6 WPs)
    - He once had 262 Ks in a season, which nicely paralleled his 262 walks
