I do agree with you though. Smoltz has sung it as well. Cubs not taking walks like they have much of the season. Cards/Royals seemed to live by going oppo every chance, rarely swinging for the 45 degrees playoff HR. Just stop mentioning Detroit lol.
I think against Syndergaard last year they made contact on something like 40 consecutive fastballs

Ok...Chapman is better than he used to be in cold weather but I would be looking for walks early this inning. No way his body will be as warm after sitting for 15 minutes and throwing 8 warm ups as he was warming up in pen.

Chapman is likely the fastest running pitcher in baseball but didn't have his fielding cap on
