Pat Connaughton has 8 points halfway through the 2nd quarter of Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semis.

He tipped a Giannis missed free throw back to his team 4th quarter late in the SportsCenter highlights I saw to help his team win in Brooklyn and make the East Finals.  

Bucks had a wing injury at outset of playoffs, and he is now 6th in rotation.   +10 was team best plus minus in the Game 7 road win.

Pat has carved out a nice career for himself in the NBA.  He is a very valuable member of their team and I was surprised to learn he has a 44" vertical.  Obviously he made the right choice choosing basketball over baseball.

Nats are calling up Gerardo Parra, who I believe spent a year in Japan after being a hero of their 2019 World Series run.   He'll be welcomed warmly in Washington and we'll hear the shark song again, over and over.

So maybe it's time to do something about the shift when you have Manny Machado shifting to RF.

Ian Kinsler and former Oriole Danny Valencia are going to play for the Israeli baseball team in the Olympics, and they have joined the Long Island Ducks independent minor league team to get in shape.

He caught one over the shoulder last year on a play like that.

Hanser Alberto has been playing mostly as a reserve, now at .674 OPS after sinking to .557 in mid-May.   Have to admit, I’d much rather have him than the parade of clowns we’ve had at 2B.

Henry Urrutia tearing it up in the Mexican League.

Kevin Gausman rocking a .209 BABIP as of right now for the season. Happy for him still.

Some interesting names on that list.   Is that the Adrian Gonzalez who played for the Dodgers and Red Sox?

I had no idea Yasiel Puig was down there.

Addison Russell continuing his career after domestic abuse derailed his career in the majors.  He's pretty young, still.

Former big Houston prospect Jon Singleton.

I'm guessing that's NOT the Pete O'Brien who played for the Rangers back in the 80s.

Erick Aybar -- his nephew Wander recently got called up by the Rays.

Dang, to even be that close to making that catch is amazing skill set.
