My coworker that looks like Pressly should make it through another Tuesday unpunched. Well done.

Thank God I don’t work with anybody that looks like Hader.

Maybe avoid drive thru’s tomorrow just to be safe.

In other news....blake snell threw a no hitter tonight

Damn.

Giants move back in front of us with their 18th no-hitter vs our 17.

(yes, they got a 79 year head start on us)

like all 9 innings?  That's more surprising than the no-hitter part.

After the kikuchi trade I’m scared what Dana would have given up for him, and I know @Scrapswould rather gouge his eyes out, but I wish we had taken a flyer on Bell.

this would have been nice to have seen in an Astros uniform Monday night in a tied game in the 8th against Chapman instead of watching Dubon K on three pitches after pinch-hitting for Singleton

 

Bell has 7 of his 16 HRs on the season in the last 12 days

The wrong pitcher reached the workload option vesting (if only because we aren’t paying if the other guy had done it)

Actually we still would have paid $17.5M if JV had gotten 140 IP. I still take $17.5M for 2025 JV vs $14M for 2025 Pressly
