Feel a bit bad for Pittsburgh. “We’re 20-9 and awesome time to play some good teams on this home stand and prove ourself”. Then gets swept by Tampa and Toronto.

AL East is a different animal.

Totally. Have had a soft spot for the pirates since the Jason Bay days. And I would love to see a game at PNC(hard sell to the wife to go to Pittsburgh lol). So I was stoked that they were having a good start to the season. Their division sucks so maybe they can stay in it. But probably not lol.

Shocking how bad the cards are this year. Milwaukee will likely take the division.

Yeah I did not see the cards turning into a dumpster fire overnight like that. Pretty crazy

Was just at the Padres Dodgers game at Petco. What a fantastic ball park, just an incredible baseball experience.

Lets talk about the As. They're all world bad, they're on pace to have a run differential of -574. Only 1 team in the last 20 years has even hit -300 and most years the worst teams are only around -200.

They shouldn't be rewarding the owner by letting him move them to Vegas, they should make him forfeit the franchise for not even trying to put up a competitive team.

Vladdy looked safe at 2B there. Not sure why no challenge.

Yeah I think Vladdy was safe. I understand the need to speed up the game but It kind of defeats the purpose of challenges if teams don't have the time to make an appropriate decision. Make it 30 secs instead of 15. 15 extra seconds is not going to crater the sport.

Oh. Chapman struck out. Can’t challenge a stolen base when 3 outs already happened

Tiedemann is out week to week which is pretty disappointing. If Pearson can continue to make strides, that will dull some of the pain of seeing Tiedemann with arm troubles already.

It seems like Manoah is showing some of the red flags that we’ve seen from him in his rough starts.

Let’s hope he can grind through it.

Manoah has options right? Might be worth a little “rehab” stint to work on some issues.
