By saying he is no Machado do you mean after he catches the ball he does not read the label on the ball and gun the throw to first?

Texas has been streaky all year. Sadly we caught them in a hot streak.

There we go. I thought Mountcastle had a good first at bat

Didn't they print the box score from late games the next day? I lived in the Harrisburg PA area and the Harrisburg paper (Patriot News) printed a morning addition and an evening edition. Luckily my parents got the evening edition and i always got the box scores for all the games?

Really bad outfield play the first 2 games.

Great season!! Sad that our playoff chances are gone but for the first time in years i can look to the next season optimistically.

How many players a year does this impact? At most it would be about 1 per team and realistically much less than that number. There are 780 players on MLB rosters. 15 players would be 2%.

About 15 seconds or twice as fast as Machado.

"That is a disgusting act"

We should never pitch to Arozarena. This guy kills us year after year like nobody i remember. Yes there have been guys who did well against us in a given year but this guy is doing it every year.

22-22 since May 3rd. Not to shabby.

I listened to this duo (Garceau and Newman) for the first time on radio about a week ago. They are the worst combo i have ever heard broadcast a game of any kind with the only exception being possibly a high school game. We have gone from Chuck Thompson, Jon Miller and Joe Angel to this. Not sure you could have hired worse announcers if you tried. For a team struggling to get fan interest the choice to hire these announcers boggles the mind.

Ortiz was a DH. His only contributions to his teams was hitting. He had a career 56.7 OWAR. Bobby Grich had a career 62.6 OWAR. There is no way this guy is a first ballot HOFer. I dont care what the circumstances were that allowed him to go in on the first ballot.

The division is tough but the Rays have done ok. In the last 14 years (including 2021) they have been over .500 10 times and they had 2 seasons of 80-82. They were in the playoffs 6 times and about to be 7. We have been so far behind our division rivals for so long it is amazing we have any fans at all. We had 5 seasons of .500 or better in the last 24 years (including 2021). That is St. Louis Browns territory.
