Impressive defeat of Camilo Doval by Juan Soto to key the sweep in San Francisco.

Doval is functionally near to Felix Bautista and Mason Miller as hairy as a relief pitcher can get, but Soto's the favorite over just about anybody in the hitter v. pitcher building block of the game.

Gerrit scheduled to pitch AA tomorrow as we start to see how their Bradish scenario this season does at minor league game intensity.

What's the square root of 50...something like 7.1?    Even if both Bradish and Cole are 70% to be in the clear today, odds still favor one of them being absent by season's end.

Szymborski's June update projected East 2nd place to beat Central 2nd place by 7 games and I believe if they beat them by even 1 game, BAL-NYY is locked to the 5-game setting if it occurs.

He said the other day that he mostly looks at RBI and Runs scored. He seems to be a throwback type. I'd also like to say that I am in favor of them having the #2 hitter bunt the leadoff guy

The last 164 times they have played, the Yankees are 120-44 against the Twins.

I thought Babe Ruth set that one.  Six barrels of beer in September 1927, while he was also hitting 17 homers.  Judge only has 25 hits this month, so it’s kind of amazing that he has 25 barrels.

Who had Juan Soto in the pool of who needs TJ first out of Kyle Bradish, Gerrit Cole and Juan Soto?

I hope Soto is good.     It is tricky dynamics between Boras Corp and NYY if anything is amiss.

I am merely guessing like Ohtani last year if need be he could DH indefinitely closing out an Arb-salaried season, though that might impact his start of 2025 availability for a FA-salaried season.

The Dodgers know his quality regardless of anything he does or doesn't do the next 4-5 months.

Luis Gil and Tyler Glasnow in the ESPN primetime Sunday night is pretty.

Last night on FOX I heard more than one instance of John Smoltz choosing "unfortunately" from his word book to describe ordinary baseball happenings to NYY.

Not that the networks and commissioner prefer one team over another, or would ever weight the tumbling dice, umpire scorecards or bouncing balls to create revenue positive situations.

With Soto missing time with his forearm issue, Judge seems to be taking on the frontrunner status for MVP.  His OPS is up to 1.137 and he just hit his 24th HR.  This season looks better than his MVP/62 HR season.  2nd would have to be a toss up between Cleveland's Ramirez and Soto, IMO.  I have Gunnar in 4th.  Just my personal ranking.

Olney reported Yankees consulted with Jeter and Sabathia on the Jazz Chisholm clubhouse fit.     He is wearing #13 same as A-Rod.    Five years ago, Jeter part of the Marlins leadership group that got him for Zac Gallen.

The Statcast crew had a great feature on Jarren Duran and Ceddanne Rafaela combining to cut down Juan Soto at the plate failing to go Second to Home on an Aaron Judge obliterated baseball that smashed high off the Monster.

Aaron Boone squeaked by his Grady Little-Pedro Martinez moment with Clay Holmes yesterday, but for me it was a comforting reminder Cashman didn't do as much as I believed he would in his only assured Juan Soto year.

Holmes-Weaver-Leiter-Kahnle vs. Seranthony-Cano-Coulombe-Kimbrel perhaps the best four relievers either club can muster if they see each other this fall apart from the regular season.

      Making some changes on the biz end of things.  Sounds like Bader is gone from his role too..which is great because he’s awful.

      I love the wall. Love it. I think every Major League ballpark should have dimensions like that. By and large teams build parks with much smaller dimensions than a century ago, despite the players being dramatically bigger, stronger, faster athletes. It makes no sense. The game would be improved with much larger outfields. It would emphasize speed and athleticism over endless lineups of slow sluggers.

      Hyde: No Idea if Suarez Will Be Back

      Yes, so hes a FA, the Discussion should now turn to what Elias or anybody else might offer next year. and it's tough because at 34 he's almost a one year wonder. But I do know this our season came back from trouble all year and Big Al was there to help many times.

      We all know you think you're passionate about your team and your ideas. but the way you continually insult people whose ideas you don't agree with, or who disagree with you, is incredibly childish.   It's a form of cyber-bullying.   I'd like to think you're better than that, and wonder why more people don't call you out on it.  Maybe they know it won't change anything? Is it not possible to disagree without having to insult either the person or their thoughts?  I know it's hard to self-reflect and realize that you constantly do this, and maybe make a change for the better, but I kind of expect some insults are now headed my way for trying to make this place a bit less hostile.

      We'll see Rubenstein talks a good game, but actions speak louder than words. Also it's on Elias to be willing to make a splash if the right (but also pricey) player become available and wants to be an Oriole. I was never big on an Adley extension even last year with the way catchers age. Gunnar is a player you absolutely lock up to an early contact extension assuming he is even open to it.

      I think for almost all owners payroll matters more than winning. Even teams like the Yankees are careful with how they go into penalty.

      For sure. That's why the Hyde quote implies he is a free agent.
