Roughned Odor did that today and connected to his face after a hard take out slide by Joey Bats today.

Big fight in the rangers game today
Two days later I get a text back that says I'm a basketball player and a businessman, not a Thundercat.

Cardinals have 18 losses, more than the phillies, but also have a +49 run differential

The pirates who are even with them in the nl central have a -2 diff

Maybe they can hack into the pirates system to figure out how they are doing it?

Baseball computers melting down all over the place.
Teams lie, sometimes for good reasons, sometimes for bad. They do it to get an advantage while they look at the trade market or just because they can

Braves GM is on the Jonah Keri podcast. Sounds 12. Sorts throws a lot of the previous GMs under the bus. Called it a process.

He was most proud of the Shelby Miller trade...the first one.

The Cubs are 27-9. That's one game behind their Pythagorean record of 28-8. Their third-order record is 29.5-6.5.

Really

538 has them as the favorite in every game for the rest of the season except for a game in San Francisco this weekend where Kyle Hendricks opposes Madison Bumgarner. They only have a 49% chance in that one...
