    You don’t hear much about the fall off of Sandy Alcontra unless you hear it from Nicky Pipes

    Anybody watching the college World Series? I have enjoyed watching it. I hope the Florida gators win but I enjoy watching all teams. Enjoyable to bet on

    I rarely watch the MLB I bet on except the Reds post Elly De La Cruz and hate-watching the Dodgers.

    The CWS is baseball for fun. It’s been fantastic. I was on the Oral Roberts bandwagon like most. I have a small Florida future too.

    Been meanings to ask you, where do you think Tampa Bay Rays will move to?

    MLB will never be the same

    Naylor scares me as a human


    Naylors together may have won this game from behind on the first night together …. damn

    MLB has to fix this catcher at home plate making a tag... and fix it fast, just happened again in the SF-SD game.... this is worse than the Rangers call at home plate

    from last night.....!!

    Speaking of prospect hype (or maybe lack-thereof) have you seen Royce Lewis killing it for the Twins? Everyone kinda forgot about him after he tore his ACL for the 2nd time last year, but he's back and basically the best hitter in the Twins lineup right now. Free-swinger who strikes out a bunch but thats really his only knock. Think Javier Baez with better contact.

    Bussing with the Boys really changed the game. These current athlete podcasts now are great. Mookie apparently has one now, here he is interviewing Trout.

    Elly De La Cruz hits for cycle in like his 15th game. Kid is fun as shit. They will eventually tell him to dial it back but I’m all in atm.

    Yankees Domingo German has a Perfect Game going vs Las Vegas A’s. German needs to complete bottom of 9th.

    Hopefully the NYY bats don’t make him wait too long - not kidding - just strike out and allow history. German may need to go to the bull pen to work

    Does it get an asterisk being that it was vs a AAA team?

    That’s certainly fair.

    The things is … success in the bottom of the 9th frankly had more to do with the Yankees and German’s “yips” or nerves than anything the Athletics were going to do.

    People are likely to choke in those spots - including umpires

    I had Padres & Mets ML parlay for +128.

    Padres/Pirates under 4.5 F5


    Padres are such the underachieving, uncoached prima donnas that cancelling the game and my bet would really be in the public interest.

    I never fail to get sucked in on the Padres potential. That’s me - Mr Sunshine

    Dodgers in Colorado tonight with their kid who has pitched all of 2 games on the mound against the pitcher who let up 80 runs is a fun spot too. The Todgers kid comes out of a high altitude league but they used tacky baseballs in that league

    Todgers used to be experts on sticky balls but that era is apparently over…. or is it? Dodgers pitching performance indicates they stopped using goo

    I just looked at the box score. As someone who generally is aware of the top 200ish prospects in MLB at any given time, I still had no idea what a "Jonah Bride" is who started at 3B for the A's last night.

    Their DH was the backup catcher with a career .591 OPS. Might as well have the pitcher bat.

    I spend more time on baseball than is healthy but you always crush me with knowledge, gut.

    Dodgers bullpen is back. Went from worst to pretty much first in 10 days.

    Any opinion on Ohtani to LAD gut? Mookie, Freddie, Ohtani?

    Imagine the pickle the Angels are in now. Trading Ohtani is like trying to gauge the value of an actual unicorn. Soto got Wash basically the top 4 prospects in the Padres system. What the hell would you have to give up for Shohei? He's almost untradeable.

    The Angels seriously have to make the world series this year for any chance of Ohtani staying. Dodgers, Giants, Mariners obvious suspects for defection. Sounds like he wants to stay west coast.

    Leaving a space here for Druff to claim once again Dodgers are frugal spenders.
