On the bright side, that fan got the coolest in-game souvenir possible, his glove.

"While López said something after the call, it wasn’t aggressive until De Jesus responded, at which point, it did escalate. Not to harp on it, but umpires: Stop making things worse on purpose.

I’m defending López, exactly. On his way off the mound, he threw his glove into the stands. Cool souvenir, but not exactly professional. After the game, he insisted he did not regret doing that, going on to say that either the Mets were the “worst team in the whole f—ing MLB” or he has looked like “the worst teammate, probably, in the whole f—ing MLB.” "

They are coming in pairs now.

Teammates Means and Wells elbow surgery announced in one press release.

A few days later, teammates Urquiddy and Javier elbow surgery announced in one press release.

And now the Brewers might be making a similar announcement.

Maybe the surgeons have a Groupon or something for 2-for-the-price-of-1 Tommy John surgery.

Mike Baumann came on for Seattle to save a 3-1 game in the ninth. Struck out the first two, then gave up a loud double and an absolute bomb to blow the save.

They brought on Austin Voth in the bottom of the 10th with a 6-3 lead and he immediately gave up a home run to Hunter Renfroe to make it 6-5, then he put the tying run on with a single. He did then get the next two out, including Bobby Witt, and gets the hold.

Hall (knee) will join Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday to resume his rehab assignment, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Hall experienced a setback with his sprained left knee during his second rehab appearance May 23. He's expected to eventually require a platelet-rich plasma injection or possibly surgery for the knee, but for now, he'll attempt to pitch through the injury. Given that he's been on the injured list since April 20 and hasn't made a rehab appearance in about three weeks, Hall will likely require multiple outings at Nashville to get fully stretched out before he's an option for the Milwaukee rotation.

I wish Hall a full and successful recovery, but Joey Ortiz has been doing so well that, considering Burnes was only going to be around for one more year, the Brewers might very well consider the trade a win anyway.

I doubt Ortiz will have an 800+ OPS all year but I guess its possible. Right now the trade looks like a win for both teams. Milwaukee of course gets 5 more years after this to fully reap the benefits.

    • BP profiled him today: Brandon Young, RHP, Baltimore Orioles Listed Height: 6-foot-6 Listed Weight: 210 pounds DOB (Age): August 19, 1998 (25) Pitch Velo Spin IVB HB Total % Whiff% 4-Seam Fastball 93.5 2124 18.0 -4.8 131 48.7 31.8 Changeup 85.5 1730 9.8 -13.3 64 23.8 22.9 Curveball 75.7 2723 -14.4 11.5 34 12.6 40.0 Slider 85.4 2048 5.4 5.5 26 9.7 12.5 Sweeper 79.5 2084 1.7 11.5 14 5.2 11.1 Injuries limited Young to just 53 1/3 innings between 2022 and 2023. Upon return to action last year, he flashed increased velocity. That velocity bump has carried over to 2024. Now, Young’s fastball has borderline-average velocity (previously below-average) but above-average carry and extension (6.6 feet). It is further aided by strong command. After his fastball, which is by no means a world beater, Young has a smattering of average secondaries. He primarily relies on a changeup–really his only secondary with above-average potential–that has solid velocity (8 mph), vertical movement (8+ inches), and horizontal movement (8+ inches) separation from his fastball. Both his breaking balls either lack enough power (curveball) or depth (slider/cutter) to be viable putaway pitches at the MLB level. His seldomly-used sweeper has potential, but it has had little success so far. Young adds to the depth of the deepest system in baseball, yet he very well may just be that–depth–likely without an above-average offering. Of course, he could become a viable fantasy arm even with mediocre stuff due to his command and control. 
    • You would theoretically make more money over time by best serving your employers.
    • They announced his rehab was over and that he would be back in AAA.
    • If I sell someone a house, I don’t advise them to buy the most expensive house because that means more money for me. I get to know the client, understand what’s important for them and advise them based off of that. That’s how you should always handle a job like that imo. Your wallet should not be part of the equation.
    • This goes back to a discussion I had before.     Since Stowers likely doesn’t have great trade value, do you keep him and trade Kjerstad instead?  Even if you think HK is better, can he get you a way better player and Stowers give you 80-90% of what HK can give you? It’s possible you have room for both too.  Just saying if you decide to trade an OFer, maybe this is the smart way to go?
    • What I thought was best for my client. Which would depend on what my client has told me he wants. If he wants to maximize earnings I tell him to test free agency.
