OAK looks unstoppable right now.

The Yankees took a 4-0 lead early and the game, and the Athletics scored 7 unanswered runs to complete the 3-game sweep.

Also, a little over 2 weeks ago, Detroit looked unstoppable. They have gone 4-12 over their last 16 games.

Very true, I hope we're the club to cool them off.

Would be nice if the Jays ran into an explosive offense that shells their pitchers. When a staff gets over-worked and shelled, it can take them a long time to recover. Especially the bullpen, since they have to pick up the slack when the starters fail. They need to be put to the test.

In June, after they finish with the Tigers, they run into the Cards, the Twins, us, the Yanks, the Reds, and the White Sox. Out of all those teams, I think we are the most likely team to rake them over the coals.

They face the Brewers later in the season, and as we learned, the Brewers are doing well. That could also be a turning point for them. Let's see.

Good post! Great to get a look at the Jays schedule. I keep expecting the Jays to start to falter but they keep going strong. Mighty impressive that they swept the A's and now have a chance to do the same to the Tigers.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if Soto or Judge get fitted for a first base glove very soon.

      Yea and it’s not only that he was recovering from the injury itself, he also didn’t get the ST reps in. I was never worried about him because of that.  That injury and time probably eliminated any chance he had at making the Ml roster late in the season but I would imagine he’s in AAA within a month or so and will get in 200ish PA at that level.

      Its natural right now to compare him with Spencer Jones on NYY AA Somerset. Jones got a lot of press in spring training with a few highlights illustrating his rare human ability to do the Judge-Giancarlo things, but AA pitching is giving him a hard time overall as June opens up. As Cashman maneuvers his big pieces, Judge, Soto, Jasson and Jones can't all be outfielders for them in 2 years.

      My guess is you run that same lineup out as yesterday but switch Rutchman with McCann. With so many games coming up a full day off for Adley wouldn’t hurt.

      Did the Rangers have elite pitching last year?

      It could be Mayo instead but big pieces wise, we're nearing the point there could be a joke that the Orioles defense of having the #1 prospect could be completed by Mayo or Basallo even though Jackson Holliday is still eligible for the list. The Ryans stand strong and list makers could see all of them side by side as Norfolk tries to defend its AAA championship. Nationals have a couple guys who I have a feeling their life mastery of the game of baseball competitiveness will correspond with them earning about 128 at-bats late this season.    They are precisely that good.       Futures Game is Saturday 7/13 a hair under 6 weeks away.     That highlight conjured a happy image of Juan Soto's head on Yordan Alvarez's body.    Soto's a middle of the field guy like Mountcastle, and it'll be fun to watch where Basallo ends up Pull%...I believe turn and burn flag court training basic to today's Oriole Way. MLB.com list this morning has Kjerstad with the three younger guys all in the top 25.
