He was awful in September. 8.24 ERA, same number of walks as strikeouts. Maybe they saw those 4 starts and were like we'll use him in game 3 if we have to but we have to actually get to game 3 first.

They really need to completely overhaul the bracket. The Guardians have a bye with 85 wins and will get to play either the 81 win Astros or 84 win White Sox. Meanwhile the 98 win Rays will have to play either the 93 win Yankees or 87 win Red Sox. And people can say this year is an anomaly and the bracket isn't normally this bad but a bracket like this should never happen, even once every 100 years is too much.

I mean, it is kind of embarrassing. It literally just seems like longest tenured player = captain. The most embarrassing part is the timing of it. If you want to do this in spring training or whatever, fine. I still think it's stupid but whatever. Doing it right before the end of the regular season? Weird and embarrassing.

What is the role of the captain? We're only the third MLB team to have one so obviously it can't be that important of a role if 27 teams manage to go without one.

But what is the achievement? His career OPS as a Brewer is just slightly higher than Geoff Jenkins. To do this at the end of the year when he's been terrible this year is embarrassing. There's no reason to do it.

Kinda like the thought of a team loading up righties against Gasser and we pull him after a few innings and go with Patrick/May as a counter.

I think Arizona has the tiebreaker, although if Arizona wins tonight San Diego will have the 4 seed to play for tomorrow.

BADGERS!

I actually took the summer off for the first time since I used to work at a local summer camp and I have to say, it was nice in a way but I also missed the interactions and the fun (and the money.) 😂

Still not sure if you can trust him enough to put him on the roster but Harrison has looked a lot better his last few outings.

They are 95+ and classified as hard hit, so yes? You can hit a 100 mph ground ball right to the SS and it still counts as hard hit.

Anything over 95 is hard hit. Again, weird how September is a busy month for a teacher!

Technically 3. 4 if you want say the 0.1 mph off of a hard hit ball is close enough.

Since it's National Pancake Day, can we say crepes sake?
