i dont know. Part of Murph's effectiveness is having the guys playing with some looseness and fun, not so uptight. He seems harder on the rookies. Everyone knew the situation that the white flag had been raised. Doesnt require the brewers to let up but im sure Murph saw what was going down and let it play. And after he smoked that ball it made me wonder if he could switch hit in the future without seeing his current splits.

I can't believe how crappy the NL West is this year.  Outside of the Dodgers, every team is .500 or below.  The Giants and Rockies are especially crappy.  The AL West is in a similar situation and the AL Central isn't much better.  Strange year overall so far.

It's crazy too because I don't think the Padres, Diamondbacks, and even Giants are that bad on paper.

Tristan Peters hit for the cycle yesterday, was named to the AL All-Star team and has a 3 WAR so far for the White Sox this season.

For those who aren’t familiar, we traded him in 2022 for an injured Trevor Rosenthal who never threw a pitch for us.

We have have made some truly awful trades for relievers at the deadline the past few years, not to mention the Zerpa trade in the offseason.

Ouch. At the same time, San Francisco and Tampa both gave up on him too.
