In a word, yes. Instagram ramblings from Juliette Lewis.
People have called it a meltdown. She says she was being funny. As IBM would say, “You make the call.”
Once again, I am skeptical that there is anything of importance here. It’s all based on what Stone claimed.
Sure, if you believe all the things that Stone claimed over the past years – his contacts with Trump, Assange, Guccifer – he might be the greatest traitor since Julius Rosenberg, but I’ve never seen any reason to believe a single word that guy ever uttered. He’s just a major bullshit artist who likes to make himself seem important. It is not illegal to be a total bullshitter, as evidenced by the fact that Donald Trump is in the White House rather than Leavenworth.
59 Republican judges were up for re-election in Houston – every single one lost!
29 of the 30 voters chose de Grom, and I’m OK with that choice, but …
He finished the season with a 10-9 record. No starting pitcher has ever previously won a Cy Young with fewer than 13 wins.
If we could look back upon this from 20 years hence, I don’t think this would be viewed as an exception, but rather as the start of a new trend. As I’ve noted previously, the pitchers’ W statistic is becoming increasingly irrelevant as starting pitchers face ever fewer batters.
Meanwhile Blake Snell won in the American League with 180 innings pitched. No starter had ever won with fewer than 198 innings, but there’s no question Snell was the right choice. Innings or no innings, he had one of the greatest seasons in modern history.
* He was 21-5 with a mediocre team. They Rays were 68-63 in games not started by Snell.
* His ERA was 1.89. Only four American League pitchers have gone below 2.00 in the DH era. I think you have heard of the others: Roger Clemens, Pedro Martinez and Ron Guidry.
* Get ready for this one, because it sounds like a misprint. Opponents batted .088 against him with runners in scoring position.
