just imagine what he could do with a torpedo bat!

it’s a rolling average

Thr most surprising development so far in this very young season: the White Sox rotation throwing 23 shut out innings to start the year.

In my fantasy league, the entire rotation went undrafted.

The Brewers have played 4 games.
Today they allowed 11 runs to the Royals.
It was only the 3rd most runs they’ve allowed in a game this season.

I wonder if Jake Bauers made his 3rd pitching appearance today? For those who don’t know Jake is their 1B and threw Saturday & Sunday.

It’s looking like it could be a long season for the Brew Crew. sigh

That’s what the giant twisty slide is for!

This just in: Torpedo bat handed 80-game suspension for steroid use.

Interesting storylines in the standings after a week (or so):

All 5 teams in the AL Central are 2-4, and the ChiSox are the only one with a positive Run Differential (+4).

The Padres are 7-0 behind great pitching (11 runs allowed), mostly under the radar as everyone is discussing how many wins the Dodgers will be break the record by.

The Giants are also quietly 5-1 in the NL West.

The Braves are the only team that hasn’t won a game yet (the Phillies fan gleefully reports)!

I forget the exact number and am not about to check, but sports radio guy claimed something like that in the past 45 games going back to last season, the Braves have a worse record than the White Sox.

Big payday for Vladdie.

He’s only 26? I guess that makes sense, but it feels like he’s been around longer.

Vlad Guerrero Sr. was a hall of famer who played for the Expos (RIP) and was (is) very popular in Canada as a result.

sorry, it was a joke

Jays first signed him when he was 16 so he has been with them a while.

Highly doubt the last couple years his body holds up… but Canadian dollars aren’t real money so it should be fine.

All MLB player contracts are in US$. Might have been better for Vladdie to get C$ as Trump wants US$ to devalue.
