Dove into the comments. Fun stuff

If we go 1-2 in the series, that seems like an in-between?

Doubleheader Saturday

Per transaction logs, Hurter up and Hanifee down.

Buuuuump.

Weird that his name was hyperlinked in my post when I just copied and pasted after I googled how to spell his name... anyways...

If their instinct is to yank access after a negative story, it makes you wonder what else doesn't get out. Sunlight is the best disinfectant.

The fact that he was rotating his shoulder to test something out... We'll see. Hopefully it's minor.

Looks like shoulder to me.

In which case a win would not clinch because the season series is up in the air. I agree that is the median scenario. Both Tigers and Guardians win 2 of 3 and split the first two.

The Tigers very likely clinch before this happens, but they could have a magic number of 3 with Cleveland before the third game of the series and clinch with a win. They would have had to win the first two games of the series and not have clinched already. This is because a sweep in the series next week clinches the tiebreaker.

One of the 9-10 games I am blacked out for...

The Marlins do.

Why is Sunday TBD? Is it a matter of if the division is too close, they want to save Mize for Tuesday against Cleveland?

Lange is not on the IL, and he has been getting roughed up since being sent back down.

Depends how many of the women who came forward are on the baseball side. I do know the woman who was in the analytics department, who had gotten some pub several years back, left the team sometime in 2023-24. Giblin getting bumped up to VP after being Menzin's subordinate is interesting to me as well. I don't agree that this is a New York hit job. To my original point, if there are rumblings about a woman being thrown down the stairs by a team employee, the local media needs to get on that and chase it down. There is clearly still a problem. They are retaliating against Stavenhagen, for example. Gustafson seems like a bad egg.

Why was I thinking there was some pedophilia there too?

Not to bleed things over from the forum people would be wise to avoid, but is somebody else going to have to start game threads for a bit? No way that post today doesn't warrant some time away...

Kinda what I was driving at. I noticed in The Athletic's follow up story, the team tried to ice them out of the media availability in the afternoon. Sports entities took the wrong lesson from Penn State/Baylor...

I am curious who throws the last two innings with TBD tomorrow.

Great job by the Yankees fortifying their bullpen at the deadline. A guarantee of success, the groupthink mafia told me.
