Verlander and Cole are having some great seasons but I'm afraid Mike Minor is the 2019 AL Cy Young Award Winner.

I feel pretty good about the Astros chances to get home field. The Yankees still have a series against the Rays, who are fighting for a playoff spot, but the Astros have nothing but the Rangers, Angels and Mariners and basically a two game lead on the Yankees since they won the head to head series But not gonna necessarily count on it just yet

On the one hand, Schwarber is being a bit salty bitch over a very mild celebration after a strikeout On the other, if Schwarber had hit a dong and made a similar display he probably eats a fastball his next AB

Here's a list of things a batter can do if they don't want the pitcher to celebrate on the mound in front of them: 1) Don't swing at dogshit.

GOOD TIMES ON METH posted:https://twitter.com/Reds/status/1174487817222856704 one thing I've always enjoyed is how champagne bottle sizes are named in terms of kings from the Bible that one looks to me like about a nebuchadnezzar, which you used to be able to pick up at Costco for around 1500 bucks (you can also see the comparatively tiny jeroboam bottles next to it) the biggest bottles produced (other than some gimmicky huge ones) are twice that size, and are melchizedeks

So yeah, the Astros, Athletics, and Braves have all had three straight 100 win seasons and 100 win losses, but only the Astros did it all in the same decade, as expected.
