Robbie!

Its really nice to see them push Big Mouth Keuchel around some lol

Haasey!

Tork seems to be hitting everything o right.... I wonder if his approach (perhaps honing that right field swing) may be part of why his average is low. Just spitballing, could be off there. Either way, I'm not too concerned.

*Ahem*... they call it fun differential up there 🤣

Say what you want about Joe Manchin, but at least he's given a number on what he'll accept and appears to want to play ball. I have no clue what Sinema wants at all.

I would add, the polls undershot NO by a considerable amount in California, another state with a high level of college educated white voters. There are a lot of states where polling bias hides R strength (ie. Look at the Midwest), I just wonder whether Virginia is more like California or Oregon or Washington State where they more frequently to underestimate D strength.

I dont spend a lot of time in NoVa, but it appears on the surface like there is an expectation (at least from a lot of the political class) that there may be some snapback or reversion in voting patterns up there. If voting behavior is predicated more than anything else on education levels in today's politics, with a region like NoVa, I'll believe it when I see it. In other words, If Youngkin wins, he's probably going to have to do it by holding serve up there and making it ground in other parts of the state. I dont think it'll happen. But we'll see.

I watched for a while last night.... even if they don't make it this year, still get good vibes off of that franchise and the general direction they are headed.

The Senate races will be interesting this year, and not in a good way. Most of the competitive states have good GOP candidates who historically would have a glide path to the nomination, yet the energy is with the Herschel Walker types who would likely not be as strong in a general election environment. Its emblematic of the conundrum the GOP has at the moment... the strong general election candidates struggle to win the primary, the strong primary candidates will likely struggle relative to expectations in the general.

Not a specific instance, but rather that the results of the California Recall did not meet the absolute breathlessness of the mainstream media reporting about it. Almost like the political horserace version of Al Capone's Vault. And I have seen very little post-mortem or introspection since then

Beau Brieske gets onto MLB Pipeline's radar...

Schwarber would be great... they really need someone who can wear out the right field porch at our cavernous park.

Stanley wasn't terribly far off on the starting pitching either. Makes up for his prediction of 2021 being the Year of Vanman haha

Agree with this. To the extent that he's in the mix for next year, it shouldn't be as an everyday player.

Not the highest of the season, but with the 20 degree launch angle, it got out quick

Wow, what was the exit velocity on that bad boy? Damn

Interested

Man Lange looks rock solid...

Lions hit the XP

That makes more sense. I just remembered him being optioned. Again, I think he's been somewhat of a trendy darling pick of some national baseball media, which seems misplaced. But having said that, I doubt he is removed from the 40 and believe he will be competing for a roster spot next year, as a bench guy.

Its WAR night at Bally Sports lol

I dont recall Victor Reyes being DFA'd. But I'd have to go back and look at the transactions to be sure.

Schoop adding onto his 11 game hitting streak...

Sure. But what are the odds that someone is gonna give the right value for Mize? The price oughtta be very high.
