I'm not a baez guy, but I do think he's amazing on the bases.

And really a good defender.  And then 5 strikeouts today.  All Baez doing Baez things.

RIP JR Richard, Astros pitcher cut down in his prime due to a stroke, died on Aug 4 at age 71 from COVID complications

In person he was one of the scariest dominant pitchers to face. He was really just hitting his stride in the late 70s when the stroke cut short his career in 1980.

In tonight's telecast Astros compared his stats to Mets Jacob DeGrom
( who some posters here consider to be pretty good);

Over their respective last 30 starts, consider:

                             JR Richard              J. DeGrom
Innings                 225.2                      181.0

ERA                       1.44                        1.44

K's                         250                         274

Opponent Slug%   .210                        .262

    JR had an enviable streak from Aug 3 1979 to Sept 6 1979:

Date/Opponent /  Innings/     Runs

Aug 3 ATL           9.0            1
Aug 8 LA             9.0            1
Aug 13 MTL         9.0            1
Aug 18 Phi          9.0            1

(Then, he got serious..lol)

Aug 22 NY            9.0           0
Aug 27 Mtl            9.0           0
Sept 1 NY             9.0           0
Sept 6 SD             9.0           0 


He pitched 86 straight innings without relief during this stretch   

RIP, a great one   
I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.

Schwindel & Deichmann.

Cubs #4 &#5 hitters or a local law firm?  Inquiring minds want to know.

His suckage ran rampant today.

Brewers had a few chances to secure an impressive series victory but couldn't do it. Covid hurting the bullpen bad.

Dumbass.

Most mlb players got the J&J shot.  Not as effective at preventing getting it.  Brewers are still at 75% or higher.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Zach Davies ain't going the distance tonight.

Rockies mason name change coming?

Reason 1,642,863,325 why Twitter needs to be shut down.

ETA:  saw a moderately amusing post saying that they should just change the mascot's name to Dinga and the other mascots can call it that.

This isn't a hater message by any means, and I get the circumstances behind it, but in summer 2021, I never thought I'd see maybe 2,500 people only in attendance at Wrigley for a Cubs/Brewers game.

Its an unscheduled game, but I agree.

It's a rained out game from a Monday to a Tuesday at 1. I don't think it's crazy shocking at all

MVP chants for Adames coming through loud and clear on the radio.

TAMU, Knower of Ball

If I'm not mistaken, the Brewers can retake the all time series lead vs. the Cubs if they go 5-1 (or better) in the last 6 games. They would tie the all time series if they go 4-2. I believe the Brewers last lead the series in 2013.
