Because the pen has done okay to well in 36 games, this year.
-
Wacha v Syndergaard Gotta take one game at a time and keep the Angels reeling.
-
The day we get to .500 we also lead the last WC slot! +4.5 TOR +4.0 TBR - BOS -0.5 LAA -0.5 CLE -1.0 CWS -1.5 TEX
-
Lots of fun memories. Efin Machado!
-
The Rays & Jays both lost. Angels lost, too.
-
Good to see Wong and Downs heating up. RHern is, too. Maybe we'll get our back-up catcher for 2023 from Wong or RHern. VSantos pitched 5 shutout innings (3 H, 3BB, 4K). Hamilton had 3 hits in the 2-0 win. Greenville got a win as Rafaela went 2-4. Binelas had a solo blast (11th).

He was the original dirt dog, but he also seemed to make a lot of really spectacular defensive plays. Looked pretty athletic, to me. (Speed is not the only trait of an athlete.)
-
It's hard to know how good these guys are against opposite arms, as they hardly ever face them. Franchy has 12 PAs v LHPs and a higher OPS, before today (.750 to .721.) Dalbec only has 37 PAs vs LHPs (.711 before today) and 110 vs RHPs (.498)

Hill got his ERA down to 4.40. He's had 6 good to great starts: IP/ER 4.0/0 4.0/0 5.0/0 6.0/2 6.0/1 He's has 4 bad starts: 4.1/3 4.2/4 2.0/4 4.0/6
-
Some might take issue with the non athletic statement.
-
Agreed, and they should force a move, a new stadium and or owner upon them, if they won't spend more.
-
I still like the idea of Franchy playing in the OF on most of the days he's not at 1B. Verdugo or Kike can rest. Kike can play 2B or SS when Story or Bogey rest. You gotta find room for your hottest hitters, somehow. The good part of the problem is that just about every hitter is on a hot streak or beginning to warm up. 1.154 Story in last 81 PAs .930 JBJ in last 47 PAs (.809 in last 88) .900 Vaz in his last 80 PAs .868 Dalbec in his lat 26 PAs .836 Kike in last 70 PAs .779 Cordero in last 32 PAs (also .746 last 91 PAs) .759 Verduo in last 85 PAs .755 Arroyo in his last 35 PAs

Cordero is really making the Beni trade look more promising. Two more years left on his control. Beni's control years end after this year. Now, if Winckowski or one of the long shot prospects ever give us a plus, maybe we'll look back and praise the deal.
-
Tough out by Cordero. Man! 4 hits and just 1 run.

More insightful comments. case closed.

It's not sugar coating to point out the timing of when Pedey got hurt. DD was not handed a deadwood contract. Pedey did very well in DD's first year (2016). He turned into deadwood after 2016. When Bloom took over the team after 2019, Price and Sale we already deadwood. Neither gave Bloom any production worth note.
-
I'm also thinking Hill might do a fine job taking the long relief role from Houck as he transitions into a high leverage shorter inning Rp'er. We might see: 1. Eovaldi 2. Wacha 3. Whitlock 4. Sale 5. Pivetta Closer: Houck Set-up: Schreiber, Strahm Long Relief: Hill, Paxton Prayers: Taylor (IL), Barnes, Diekman, Robles, Brasier, Danish, Davis, Sawamura, Valdez Farm help? German, Kelly, Baszardo, Bello, Seabold, Winckowski, Mata

I'm talking about the evidence that are your posts. Try to keep up.

With so many teams having just about zero percent chance at even making .500, I do think this allows some teams' fans a chance to cheer for something, every now and again. a big part of me doesn't like it, either. The 162 game season is long enough to weed out the bad teams, and a ton of money is already made off those games, too, but it's always about making more and more money. It's the American Way. more, more, more. Big, bigger, biggest.
-
I guess .630 is no longer a black hole, these days. .600 is the new .700. His .267 BA ranks third on the Yanks, so maybe you have a point.

JD getting the day off. 1. Duran DH 2. Kike CF 3. Devers 3B 4. Bogey SS 5. Verdugo LF 6. Story 2B 7. Cordero RF 8. Vazquez C 9. Dalbec 1B Here is the A's line-up: 1. .246 2. .244 3. .220 4. .247 5. .227 6. .203 7. .230 8. .194 9. .170

Some thoughts on the Yankee offense: 1. 6 of their top 8 players by PAs in 2022 are 30 or older. (8 out of top 12, too.) 5 are 32 or over. (I'd add that Gallo-28- is playing like a 38 year old.) 2. Like many teams, they have their share of black holes in their line-up. PA rank Player OPS 4. Kiner-Falefa .630 8. Hicks .596 9. Gallo .577 11. Higgy .411 12. Marwin .626 13. Andujar .596 3. Like the Sox, the offense is pretty much carried by just 3 big bats: 1.075 Judge .860 Stanton .803 Rizzo 3. Like the Sox, they have 3 players in he 700's: .768 Torres .739 Donaldson .738 LeMahieu 4. Judge has 21 of the team's 79 HRs. Judge, Rizzo (13), Stanton (11) and Torres (10) have 55 of 79 HRs. 5. The Yanks are 6th in runs scored (253)- just behind the Sox (257). They are 10th in BA (.245). The Sox are 2nd at .260. 6. The Yanks are 1st in wRC+ at 118. (Sox are 9th at 109.)

I think when MLB expands to 32 teams, they will go to a 16 team playoffs.
-
Evidence says otherwise.

Really? I’ve never heard this before. So enlightening!
