It's true, I checked myself. Dylan Bundy is basically the best pitcher alive right now.

Trev may be about to set the all-time single season SP low for BABIP-against

Matter of fact he's pitching the greatest season in baseball history, crown him

Astros throw their hat back in the ring for the competition for worst bullpen, nearly blowing a 6-1 8th inning lead last night and blowing a 6-2 7th inning lead tonight

I'm a tall guy who crowds the plate and I love that feeling of hitting an outside pitch like it's right over the middle. Of course, when I really get the sweet spot on the baseball it goes about 200 feet.

Braves have been pretty great out of the pen, but the rotation is just Gwinetts bullpen, so I'm not sure if we qualify anymore.

Nah, he's way up there in terms of heinous billionaires. Laying everyone off when covid hit, then lobbying for too-early re-openings, and plenty of other stuff.

They're both poxes on Houston.

Dick Bremer who is usually very measured and reserved going off as much as he does is pretty wonderful to hear.

The Royals have been bad, but not because of the bullpen. Their WHIP is pretty pedestrian, but not bad. Same with their 3.00 ERA.

"If" is doing a lot of work in that statement.

The most Cardinals bullshit thing will be for them to win the WS this year despite only having played ~10 games, because playoff eligibility was entirely based on winning percentage to keep things "fair".

Since Mike Trout's baby was born, he has hit more home runs (7) than the St. Louis Cardinals have hit all season (6).

Charlie Blackmon has the same number of hits (34) as the St. Louis Cardinals.

Andrew Friedman performed some blood magic ritual and now the Dodgers will always have a top-5 farm system forever. What he did not realize however is that the monkey paw curl dictates the team will never win another championship.
