I remember defending Kimbrel in some random thread earlier this season, he had been doing really well and somebody had said how bad he was. Literally that night he began his spiral down into uselessness lol. I guess I jinxed him.

That's like Jake Bauer's entire season.

He's as good as Barry Bonds on steroids but does need the steroids.

He tried to leg out a triple but was called out. If he had made it, he would have hit for the cycle as well.

Just extraordinary.

It just warms my little heart when the underdog Dodgers can use their baseball expertise to take a chance on a relative unknown like Shohei and it pays off for them.  Truly special...

They only paid him 2 million this year! Brewers could have afforded that! Cue Turbo and his picture…

Everyone thinks Chourio is good with a 20/20 season and he is but ... Ohtani Looking at a 60-60 season. Almost hard to even imagine.  With a .297 batting average.

Honestly worth paying attention to as he would be a great trade candidate for the Brewers to replace Willy in the infield, though I wouldn't put him at SS.

Blackmon retiring

So, should the White Sox bring in a member of the '62 Mets to throw out the first pitch this week because, well, you know...........

I've appreciated what Christopher Russo has been saying lately on his show about how the '62 Mets were a loveable expansion franchise. He talks about how the New York market just appreciated having National League baseball again.

This White Sox franchise... where to begin? where to end? They really need to clean house and fumigate. How does that happen in Chicago?

...and this is his rehab season. I often forget that he also is (was?) a top 30 pitcher in baseball. Uncomparable..

[Brewcrew82]

And we have a Brewers to the World Series pick, with some major upsets sprinkled in there....
