    If the utterly terrible Joey Gallo gets 500 ABs this year, he will have 250 Ks.

    What a terrible move getting this all-or-nothing (but mostly nothing) waste of a roster spot.

    Twins are starting to feast on their division. Seven in a row now. But now they travel to Tampa which will be less friendly.

    ^^ Six for the Yankees, who were total shit a week ago. They still have some shit, though. They have some very pricey liabilities in that lineup with the aforementioned Gallo and Josh Donaldson. The bottom third of their lineup is still pretty pitiful. There's too much talent in their system to be blocked by these bloated and ineffective contracts.

    Yankees have the best ERA in the AL. Before anyone gets too excited, they just beat CLE DET BAL who are a combined 19-34. As for Gallo, at least try with 2 strikes against a lefty to cut down on the swing meet the ball. Its tough to watch sometimes.

    Bot the O's scored 15 runs in their last three games. If they had pitching this would be a different story.

    It's okay! They'll be eliminating the shift next year to accommodate lesser talents like Gallo!

    They also took 2 out of three from Boston and Toronto when they weren't hitting. Their pitching has carried them.

    Perhaps, but yesterday, they brought a kid in to give the pen a rest and he coughed up three runs runs. And the O's did make five errors yesterday.

    How dumb will that be? Considering the number of Ks in the league and the paltry .231 league average, maybe they'll make a strikeout four strikes.

    Trevor Bauer has been suspended for two years.

    Bauer, who is due to lose $64 million, is appealing.

    O's were being no hit into the sixth but pull off a crushing come from behind tenth inning win over the Blowsox. The talent they have to pull off what they did in the tenth is just mind boggling.

    BoSox blew that one. I'll welcome that any day of the week.

    So, apparently after playing in Toronto, teams are taking the two-hour bus ride to Buffalo in order to avoid the chance of being blocked by positive COVID test results when traveling by air.

    The Mets have DFA'd Robinson Cano and are on the hook for the remaining $40.5M left on his contract.

    That's a big piece of pie to be swallowing. I wonder if he is going to go to the minors to try and straighten out his swing or is he done?

    How about those Reds with their 3-20 record? This could be a season for the ages. Did anyone see this coming?

    I mean, I realize it's baseball and the only safe thing to predict is the unpredictability. I certainly didn't expect the AL East to start this way.

    Last night Yankees/Jays game saw some pretty shaky umpiring. And the Jays really looked sloppy.

    Not really surprising, considering their off-season fire sale.

    Any league that actually cared about integrity would look into it, but this is Rob Mandel, so....

    I haven't looked at the NL standings as I really don't until the NHL playoffs are over. The Reds are making the 1962 Mets look like world beaters at the moment. They are on pace to win 20 games! Hitting .201 as a team I thought Votto must really be pissed, then I saw he's hitting .122 with no homers. Wow

    Didn't Votto just go on the IL, too?
