The 2025 season was a disaster for Jake Irvin pretty much from start to finish. Really, Irvin has not been the same guy since that insane July 4th start against the Mets in 2024. He showed so much promise in the first half of 2024, but has really pitched his way out of the Nationals […]

Regardless of what was said out loud, the expectations that the Dodgers would go through once up 3-0 in the NLCS were much greater than your run-of-the-mill team leading three-zip in a best-of-seven. Beyond the simple but essential final punch of making good on that promise as early as possible, the Dodgers had one primary […]

He did not allow a hit on any of the 64 four-seam fastballs he threw and just four hits on his sinker, with both of those pitches averaging 95.8 mph. But the standout pitch was his curveball, which completely missed […]
