If you had the Mets under the past couple games, you would be seen jumping off the nearest bridge…

I have their win total Under, it was looking good through May, since then they have the best record in MLB and have scored the most runs

Management hasn’t done much to help. Jed Hoyer may pay the price if they flounder much longer. The Cubs haven’t won three consecutive since April.

Neither have his players

It was a flawed team from the start, needed another big bat. Belinger is a singles hitter now. Swanson has been awful all season, Morel also.

If the Halos trade any of their main guys before the deadline for prospects, look for Trout to be gone over the winter.
Good indication they're in full rebuilding mode....if fans can still come out in droves after Ohtani, nothing will change
with Trout gone. Most are sick and tired of his constant injury issues.

I don't follow them enough to know what tradeable pieces they have, but I have to think Tyler Anderson won't end the season on their roster

Cubs with their first three game winning streak since April. Can’t get a break as it looks like Bellinger broke a finger last night.

Trout shared some exciting news, this guy needs to get out of the league.
Wow, jogging on the field, he's not 2 weeks away, by the way Djokavic is playing wimbleton with the same injury and his sport puts far more stress on the knee. i have trout penciled in for sept 1st. when that occurs he'll report twinges and they'll shut him down for the year.

I'd go with Sale, and if not him then the guy I want to see is Skenes, nothing against Imanaga, but Sale is more deserving and Skenes is must watch TV, the kid has electric stuff

That's what I posted, the funny thing is when I made my post I had no idea he was throwing a no hitter. When I was younger the All Star game was a must watch, nowadays I can take it or leave it, more than likely I won't watch it this year, but I will tune in if Skenes gets the start, him pitching against Judge is worth the price of admission

His knee gets better if he gets traded to Philly…lol

Of course it's sore, he's been babying it for months, they need to tell him there's no structural problem and to play through it. Tell him Novac Djokavic almost won wimbleton with the same injury, I'd be willing to bet Joker felt a few things too but didn't whine about it(he wrapped it)

I's like to hear more about what happened in those 2 innings, I assume he batted once - did he get a hit, did he run, did he get a single play in the outfield. Wouldn't surprise me if all he did was strike out and jog out to center a couple times, he might have even DH'd and not done that?
As time goes on, that Swanson contract looking like a real bad move.

Phillies have lost three straight series…hopefully they make some moves before the deadline…they desperately need a right handed bat in the outfield…also a RP who throws strikes…

Robbie Ray SP for SF let's out a faqee tennis grunt on every pitch.

Ha, he's always done that
i looked up what you said about skeenes and gooden...alot I agree.. IMO he is better than gooden.. but it is early
gooden had great first 2 years then tailed off with whiffs...was it the funny stuff ..who knows
Yes I think it was the funny stuff re: Gooden (and Strawberry).

Rays go to 8-1-1 their last 10 series, 4 games out of last playoff spot.
Best pitcher in baseball right now? Taj Bradley.

Why did the Rays just trade Arozerena to Seattle?

Not having a great season at all, and of course as always they don't want to pay him.
Think he has one more year on his deal.....
He is just the first to go, probably 2 or 3 more going, maybe Eflin to the Cards.
He's got a big contract coming (by TBR standards) next year.
Springs coming back he's expendable or close enough for government work,

Not quite the big bat they needed but acquiring Hayes from the Orioles is an upgrade….
Eflin goes in division, to Baltimore.
