This weekend, we’ll be a quarter of the way through the season

The Yankees are in last place….

And still a game better than the Astros.

[Pato del Muerto 52,855]

Fun early numbers:

dodgers are +48 in run diff and are 23-15.

cubs are +48 in run diff and are 18-19. 
 

marlins are -54 in run diff and are 19-19.

that's a long list.

dusty baker's kid with a pretty unbelievable play to rob our own david hamilton of base hit:

 

[shadow_operative2.0 16,058]

Old man Matt Adams with the sick range to set that play up. 

[shadow_operative2.0 16,058]

Another Tampa SP gone.

In a massive blow to the Rays, right-hander Drew Rasmussen was placed on the 60-Day IL this afternoon with a flexor strain

Shutout for Bassitt & Tor over Atl. 

[shadow_operative2.0 16,058]

Rizzo 2-run yack in bot 8 for the lead over Tampa.

dante bichette seems like a great coach for young players.

 

[Beau Vine 54,837]

Even though I've bought a couple of CC jerseys, I know I'm not the target audience for these, but holy shit these are awful:

 

[UTexasFight 9,603]

I actually think they are one of the better ones 

 

 

although that doesn’t mean your comment and mine have to be mutually exclusive

that was the fastest, "FUCK!!!" i have ever seen from a pitcher who just gave up a bomb.

Judge heating up makes all the difference. Yanks finally starting to get rolling, while Tampa looks like they may not actually be the greatest team of all time. Should be a dogfight till October.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Not sure you can top this one (if you can see it):

Here are a couple more fun ones found while searching for that:

badass throw by renfroe, and lololol @ kwan:

Jesus, that may have been the worst draft in history:

 

[Post Oak 20,327]

I have a soft spot for Tony Gwynn stats

Me too.  My favorite non-Dodger.  It got to the point where if didn’t swing, the ump assumed it must have been a ball.

Little brother getting slapped around at Chavez Ravine.  Let’s sweep their uppity asses tomorrow.

Went to a Padres game at the Astrodome as a kid and took my baseball cards.  Got my Tony Gwynn card signed and he signed everybody that was lined up down the side of the field.  This was sometime shortly before he got 3,000 hits.

Pretty damn cool …

Whitley about to be 2024 RoY !

[shadow_operative2.0 16,058]

Not the most graceful play you’ll ever see. 

Foot contusion, he’ll live. 

[Bevoette 1,429]

Dear Red Sox,  what the actual fuck? Why, why would you put in a relief picture who just blew a game the day before? I'm beyond pissed off

turf toe. he's about to miss some time. seriously wouldn't surprise me if it hampers him for months.

Looks like Jazz will be singing the Blues.

 

[shadow_operative2.0 16,058]

Vlad murders two balls foul down the LF line, then goes oppo off RC wall, but doesn't bust it for a 2B. Down 1 in bot 9. 

 

Rays beat Yanks. 

Tigers beat M's.

Loaded with 2 outs now. 

[shadow_operative2.0 16,058]

2-run walkoff single by Jansen, ouch. 

[Beau Vine 54,837]

we've got a measurement on the Gallo HR:

I believe the previous longest was 505.  

[Beau Vine 54,837]

Look at @Helobious's boy!

and he hit another tank:

 

[shadow_operative 15,932]

he's no luke voit. 

[TonyTexas 10,567]

This would have been out last year with the Yankees’ special balls

 

[shadow_operative2.0 16,058]

I guess Triston Casas’ Twitter following is behind this mic choice? Arenado ran just to get away from him. 

[shadow_operative2.0 16,058]

That was because Knizner knows he loses his job again tomorrow.
