It's been a good year for Big Man Baseball and that Donovan out is punishment for not respecting it

May may get better since it’s his first start back. Is Lugo ok? Given and Joely need to be better.

IKF isn't exactly regressing this year - this is the player he's always been. Why are Yankee fans so bent out of shape about him?

He can't even hit the ball out of the infield, and his defense hasn't been anything to write home about despite that being his calling card

While the Mariners are poised to lose another game to the Angels, I've been impressed with the way they've handled Ohtani this weekend.

the angels decided to go into seattle and knock them out of a wild card spot and they just might do it

They need to win tomorrow but Julio coming back is huge. He’s essentially been a 135-140 wRC+ bat and average/above average CF this year.

Really need to option Kyle Lewis back to AAA and bench Santana though. I’m afraid the team is going to make sentimental decisions and make this team worse than it should be in the short term (Mitch fielding too much, Santana plays too much, Kyle Lewis stays with the big club, Marco keeps his rotation spot, etc).

Johnny Bravo

yeah not having Julio is really unfortunate for Seattle. he was hitting on a whole other level in the week or two before he went down, since the end of june really.

angels pitching isn't a complete meme either, you didn't have to face ohtani but sandoval has been solid all year and detmers is having a really good stretch at the moment too. its mostly the bullpen that sucks and that just hasn't happened yet this weekend

Don't know if they'll play today because of all the rain, but it's weird that Contreras hasn't caught a game since the trade deadline.

I know Im just a casual fan and miss a lot of things, but am I wrong in thinking this year has been abnormally bad for ump calls? It doesnt even appear to be team biased, every game seems to have multiple real bad strikes that are miles outside the zone or balls that are right down the middle of the plate.

Let the burning of pants commence. These things drive me nuts.



Oswald Peraza was just taken out of the game in AAA because he got hit on the hand by a pitch. So I guess we're stuck with IKF for the rest of the season.

All I can do is laugh really.

When they hit, they can’t pitch. If they pitch well, they don’t hit. And the bullpen can blow it whenever they choose.

I Legit think the Yankees should fire Boone.

Manager doesn’t really matter but they can’t play .500 ball the rest of the way without any shakeup.

Jays need to make some trades over the offseason to build around the Pop-Outman bullpen.
