I like that his stuff seems different than some of our other guys.  Not just fastball and slider. 

I meant the 7th & 8th innings when I typed that. The 9th innings obviously belongs to King Felix.

Webb has very good movement on his pitches.

Man, come on LAA

Yeah, I can see how you would want to keep Cano involved in live game situations and keep him sharp. Especially if he's got a big lead like this, he can fine tune his delivery.

Cano’s velocity is ticking up as the season goes along

Crap...7-6 Tampa in the top of the 10th. No outs. Guys on 3rd and 1st.

Angels choke in the bottom of the 9th. Man on 2nd, 0 out, and can't score.

It’s so Angels. Get a triple play, table set perfectly in the 9th, then poop your pants. Run into two generational players in more or less the same generation…poop your pants.

[baltfan]

Cano should talk to Means. It seems harder isn’t necessarily better for him movement-wise.

California is crapping the bed and wont make the playoffs and will lose Ohtani.

Is the good Perez back?

Looks like the good Cano is

This was the Get Right game we were hoping for. Orioles win game 1.

I'm thinking he'll be on NYY. You?

No he wants more privacy than the New York media will give him. He doesn't want that spot light.

We needed that win bad.

Good!! I do not want to deal with that guy in the AL East.

Possible but I really think the Dodgers or Atlanta.   Is NY ready to win next year?  I think not.  Their team is old and station to station and injured oft.

Winning the games you’re supposed to win.

Great seeing what Webb, Pérez and Cano brought tonight.

Loved the sound of that second-deck shot by Gunnar.
