@RT8785 @JGoldberg12 @DannyTetro It was clearly a ball from perdomo’s perspective 🤷

@JGoldberg12 @DannyTetro It’s “clearly a ball” to a someone staring at a graphic with a computer showing him where the pitch “was” Baseball been played since 1845 and missed strikes and balls has been part of the game for 200 years. It is what it is. Don’t let it come to the final pitch

I'm stunned by how many people are saying Perdomo should have swung at that pitch last night and that it was too close to take. So he swings and obliterates his bat on a weak grounder or swings and misses? How about just get the call right?

ITALY: Haha, we drink espresso in the dugout! DOMINICAN REPUBLIC: Haha, we’re having so much fun hyping each other up! TEAM USA: We’re listening to a man describe in detail the raid to kill Osama Bin Laden to prepare us to play Canada in baseball.

Mariners clubhouse next season might be worse than the Mets clubhouse last season.

Brandon Valenzuela has the sauce man. Incredible baseball IQ behind the dish. Fantastic framing abilities, bazooka of an arm. This is a sure fire big leaguer.

I will be popping champagne if Raleigh is a main reason for the Mariners having clubhouse issues and end up missing the playoffs next season because of him.

@MLB @IanBloss @Topps Yes plsss

I am getting hyped for varsho this season, he’s been raking

@warblingdorado @bnicholsonsmith ? They pitched to ohtani and got the out.

@bnicholsonsmith Gave the wrong answer apparently

John Schneider told a story I’d never heard before today. Game 7 of the World Series. Bottom of the eighth. Jays up by one. Ohtani due up third. Do you pitch to him? Schneider looked around for Scherzer. “Hey," he said. "What do you got?” sportsnet.ca/mlb/article/tr…

@StlllWest Lmao

Excited for regular season baseball to be back soon and more reactions like this against the Blue Jays.

@DownToBlack Appreciate the content you’ve provided over time chris.

A Friday News Dump: I've decided to take a break from this site. I think I'm done offering free content to promote something I don't own/cannot monetize. Appreciate all the thoughtful conversation that's come from the work I've posted. Thanks for reading. Enjoy the weekend.

Over last 2 MLB seasons (where Dodgers have won both World Series titles), 162 pitchers have made >25 starts in a season. Only one pitched for the Dodgers (Yoshinobu Yamamoto in 2025). This idea of 5 guys making 30+ starts is outdated and doesn't lead to playoff success.

Tkachuk bros are the neighborhood kids who use your pool without invite when you're away for vaca. The Hughes bros are the neighborhood kids who mow your lawn without you asking.

Whoa

LOL. So on Feb 4th, Depth Charts projected the Jays to 48.1 WAR, second in MLB. Since then they've adjusted Santander from 567 PA down to 84, Bieber from 138 IP to 118, small bumps up for Ponce and Yesavage, and added Jésus Sánchez. Their new projection: 48.2 WAR.
