They should lower the pitching mound. Better yet, pitchers should have to pitch from an 18" deep divot.

The first big brick to fall in the run-up to the trading deadline. I like the deal for the Mariners, who desperately need bats.

They reportedly are going after Suarez, too, and people who know such things say they have the prospects to get him. It'll be interesting to see what the market really is, given that Suarez is in his walk year.

No team will give one of their top 6-8 prospects for a 2 month rental.

Glad the Yankees got Ryan McMahon before the Brewers were tempted.

I'm not all that impressed by McMahon, he's been on a downward production trend for a few years, even though he was an All Star last year.  But the Yankees didn't really give up much.  Only 1 top 20 prospect and neither pitcher is above Single A.

Self reporting that I not only tuned in to watch some of it, I cracked a smile. I am appalled and disgusted.

Too bad nobody could enjoy it because his team is 18 games under .500.

Shoot. Just saw that. They must be the worst team in the AL.

For what it's worth, Kurtz did tie the MLB record for total bases in a game with 19.

While the Tigers were losing 12 of 13 (before today's win), Javy Baez batted .172 with 0 XBH, 0 RBI and 0 walks.

The losing stretch wasn't his fault - he had plenty of company in the slump department - but it can't be good for Detroit's aspirations if he turns back into Helpless Javy.

The whole team forgot how to hit and how to pitch.  Particularly the bullpen.   Javy was simply part of a team wide kidney stone.

I would would choose going to a Brewers game over Wrigley 100/100 times. 

Can't account for taste.

Quote from: The Sultan on July 28, 2025, 05:25:46 AMWhy? Wrigley's a dump.

Just factually incorrect. Miller, however, is just a stadium in a parking lot. Boring.

Here's what factually correct: Wrigley is a dump. AFF is not a dump. Pretty simple.
