Unfortunately he's gonna never see his potential or what people thought he could do. Corbin looking great tonight though so far.

One-hit complete game shutout...in under 100 pitches! That was a pretty amazing performance

Corbin - 9 IP, 0 ER, 1 H, 1 BB, 8 K

And to think we were one check-swing away from the shift to seeing a likely no hitter. Love what I'm seeing from Corbin so far this year! Playing for that big $$ contract.

Hoping Ray can right the ship tomorrow. Aspects of his game have gotten better with each start, but a rough start to the season for him, even though he's won his starts.

The velocity of his fastball appears to be going up with each start. It was hitting just 91-93 MPH on his first start of the season and tonight it's hitting 94-95. Hopefully by midseason we'll see him tossing 95-97 on a regular basis again.

Command of his slider still continues to be a problem but it seems like he can throw his fastball for strikes when needed. Couple walks & a hit batter so far but 8 strikeouts (thru 5 IP)

Hello, is this the lost and found? Have you seen the D-Backs offense? It appears to have gotten lost. It's been nearly a week since I have last seen it.

 

[death2redemptions]

Good thing I reported this to lost and found.

DBacks win 6-2

 

[death2redemptions]

Ohhhhh goodie, our ace (Corbin) is pitching!

It's not just his killer slider that's made Corbin such an improved pitcher this year. His fastball command has been consistently spot on all year & he's now got a quality third pitch that has kept batters guessing.

Patrick Corbin now has 8+ strikeouts in each of his first 5 starts. He's the only one in the majors to start with 8+ Ks in 4 starts or more and he joins Randy Johnson and Curt Schilling as the only #Dbacks with a streak of 5 or more starts with 8+ Ks.

14 straight scoreless innings pitched

 

[death2redemptions]

Patrick Corbin now has another double digit strikeout performance...and is tied with Scherzer for the major league lead in k's!

 

[death2redemptions]

Ahhh fudge! Corbin struck out the side but Myers reached base on a passed ball by the catcher...the inning should have been over...and then he gives up a 2-run HR

But on the bright side, he now leads the majors in strikeouts

Patrick Corbin now leads the league in 2 of the 3 pitchers triple crown categories (Wins, Strikeouts) & is 6th in ERA.
