    there's so much to unpack from today, so i'll just start listing them. tuesday was devastating for oakland, today was twice as devastating for the yankees.  they had just started to play better.

    The boy and I were at the last ALCS clincher - we were walking on air for days after Altuve’s walkoff. Today, the boy is 5,000 miles and 7 hours away, with no way to watch. So we did a video chat, w

  • Enjoy it. Old Altuve, no more Correa means this is the very end of the road for your tainted dynasty.

I’m SHOCKED that MLB cut the Yankees a break by postponing a game for them to deal with COVID issues.

because you touch yourself 


“The Houston Astros will be the only team in Major League Baseball with zero representation at the 2021 All-Star Game after all four of their All-Stars: Carlos Correa, Jose Altuve, Michael Brantley, and Ryan Pressly opted out of the Midsummer Classic for various reasons.”

Karma is catching up with Manfred and the Yankees.

It would take multiple team deaths, stadium falling into sinkhole, and 30 years of 100loss seasons for karma to ever catch up with the Yankees.

Could be a lot of moves today. Names possibly involved: Greinke, Correa, Raley, Pruitt, James, bottom of bullpen. 



Was listening to sports radio earlier in the week, and one of the hosts brought up the fact that technically Carlos wouldn’t be allowed to miss the ASG without his wife’s delivery being imminent (which it isn’t.) Not to get too conspiracy theorist, and I know I jumped on someone else in this thread for accusing him of faking it, but the sickness did provide him a convenient reason to be allowed to skip the game.

Even if that's the case, it's not any different than DeGrom, Betts, or Molina except for the front of the jersey.

There is less than 1% chance Correa faked a sickness and missed the Yankees series.

Correct.

Thankfully he was not at the ASG because just imagine how the response would have been if he was considered the spreader who gave it to other players.

Suspected as much… I didn’t read it and sounds like I’m glad I didn’t.

was just looking for a headline about Astros missing the all star game so I could make my covid joke and that was the first that popped up.


I’m pretty amped about this second half. 
next couple of weeks may be a bit ho-hum but series at Giants and Dodgers at end of month/trade deadline is going to be outstanding 

Think this years trade deadline will be like 2017. Everyone on edge of seats.

Who else gets activated today? Raley back from IL, Pruitt, or James?

If the organization activates either James or Pruitt, a corresponding 40 man move has to happen, probably Ivey to the 60 day IL.

Raley is on the COVID IL so they can take a couple days on the 40 man but yeah I would suspect Ivey to the 60

Ah I forgot about that rule. Thought it was the same as the 10-day IL.

If he’s not getting activated then he must actually have the rona. He’s been out for 8 days.

I love Urquidy also.  I was at WS Game 4, and he does not give a fuck.  93 and straight, I'm pounding the zone, fuck you.

Any Bregman ETA yet?

I know he was hoping to play with the Skeeters in his hometown, Albuquerque. Those games are tonight through Tuesday but I’ve seen no announcement that it’s happening.

He's not in ABQ. Not sure of his timeline. 

Goddamn we better not have to suffer through a weather postponement. I need some Stros in my life tonight.

Not watching, is that one Toro should have made?

Actually no… brain fart on my part.   Uncle Mike was the lollygagger.  

Nice recovery, LMJ.  Just 9 total pitches after giving up a run in the first 2 pitches. 

I know they weren't gonna get Yuli on the throw, but they should both get an error for that play.  LOL

Is Uncle Mike such a pro hitter that a solo bomb gets no commentary?
