Soto passes his test. 4-2 W. Do the Jays bring one of our BP guys over before the end of the weekend?

Trader Jerry strikes...

Do they need Greene in the BP?

So if he doesn't go 2-4 with a walk and a homer every single game, he's a failure?

Fulmer passes his test tonight

It's the right thing to do, but he's been so solid these past few months. Even in his last outing he wasn't bad.

Soto scares me, but in general, I don't know that there's anyone bad in the bullpen at this moment...

Jimenez added to his trade value tonight... damn

Jason Foley's sinker has quietly become pretty nasty

Manoah not having the best night... damn

I know what AJ was trying to do, but he probably needed to call Garcia's day at the end of the 3rd inning

Its a very small sample size, but in general he was solid today. Didn't even think the pitch on the homer to Chapman was that bad tbh

Riley!!!

Can roboumps handle first base duty? That was BS

Listed as an elbow, so I assume a continuation of his issues last year. Rooting for him to recover, he seems like a good dude

Injured and out for the year, unfortunately

They brought back Norris to start... Greene isn't a starter

This may be a deke or a ploy to get Dems to spend more in Dem leaning races, but overall it's a piece of evidence that the Rs are pretty concerned that Oz and Walker could mess things up in GA and PA

We complain about Democratic unity a lot, but sometimes it isn't reflective of what actually happens in primaries... the expectation has been more internecine fighting with the Ds, but that largely hasn't played out.

Polling does matter this early on insofar that it guides the parties in terms of how they choose to spend campaign money. Pennsylvania is a great example... Josh Shapiro has a 10-1 cash advantage in the Govs race versus Mastriano. Thus far, the RGA (Republican Governor's Association) hasn't invested much, if at all, into the race. They probably have internal polls that are more accurate, but while the fact that they aren't weighing in has some to do with Mastriano being a morally awful candidate, some of it probably does reflect that he is doing poorly in H2H matchups as well. And the money thing matters... cash can have diminishing returns to a point, but a 10-1 cash advantage is hard to work at this early point when you are a relative unknown in a statewide race, it allows your opponent to define you. Oz, despite being a more well known figure, is in a similar boat as well... and both of them are at risk of not being able to recover from being defined early.

Fair point!

What would be good value for Andujar straight up? Plugging it into the website, Grossman or Pineda would bring more parity to the deal, although the Yankees need neither lol
