    What they did in September without Yelich was pretty amazing.

    2019 New York Mets

    Calloway is fired.

    I don’t know if he gets more than that on the open market. Texas is opening a new park, so they may splurge to attract him to his home state.

    Betts, Rendon, Cole, and Strasburg. “Hey, it’s not my money!” ?

    Well, I obviously read something different. What I read was, from his wife’s tweet, was “your son is disappointed in you.” As far as family, I definitely remember the Memorial Stadium crowd taunt Wade Boggs with a “Margo” (his mistress) chant.

    Fans can be ugly. But what he and his wife are complaining about is super soft. And from what I saw on Twitter, the offending fan was wearing a Sox hat. It’s going to be a long 13 years if he can’t get his team to the playoffs.

    Only one of nine teams in baseball history to make the playoffs after being 12 games below .500. Scherzer wore googles with one blue eye and one brown eye.

    Harper has enough money to buy playoff tickets this year. His boys have been eliminated.

    2019 Minnesota Twins

    Seems like that will be tough to prove. He had five appearances between the Colorado series and the trade and he put up zeros in each. Sucks for Minnesota, but don’t see how they can and should be remedied.

    Oliver Drake has put together a really fine season for a winning team.

    Three teams still involved with two weeks left. The Cardinals are losing their grip on the lead. One WC team will likely come from the division with an outside possibility that two make it.

    Just noticed O’Day is pitching again. Think it’s his third appearance. Love that guy.

    Elias is the unnamed ex-Astro in the first article, right? If I was an owner, I would invest in a complex for my minor leaguers. Set up a dorm-like environment with a cafeteria and let them live there year round. If they aren’t going to get paid, provide their food and shelter so they can develop without the stress of trying to figure out how to live or eat.

    Max was really good in Atlanta this weekend. If he does similar tomorrow and his next turn, he should be the guy. But you’re right that they’ll likely clinch a WC spot without a chance to catch Atlanta with about a week to go. I’d actually pair Corbin with Scherzer to have a lefty/righty effect. As unreliable as their bullpen has been, I wonder if Martinez will lean on his starters in a one-game playoff. I see that they didn’t use Doolittle to close last night.

    Devastating loss for the Brewers as Yelich is out for the year.

    Last night was a dagger for them.

    2019 New York Mets

    What the Mets have been doing without Cano and a very poor bullpen has been impressive. They have moved ahead of MacPhail’s Phillies.

    Stroman to Mets

    Seems like a peach, this guy.

    Do you play it on your TV or on your phone/computer? Is it reliable and do you need VPN?

    How do you watch MASN for free? I too have sling.

    Tyler Skaggs dead.

    backwardsk replied to weams's topic in MLB

    Their first home game since his passing will give you goosebumps. Mom throws out the first pitch, Trout leads a seven run first, and they pitch a combined no-hitter.
  23. backwardsk
    ^^^ He had an immaculate inning last night. Twelve games under .500 in May, now holding a WC spot.
  24. backwardsk
    Reds are in last place and have a +40 run differential. Milwaukee is in second with a -6.
  25. backwardsk
    Brandon Snyder has been pitching in Fresno. Two outings, three innings so far. Don’t know if these are just blowouts.
