    Pretty perfect game to take a three year old to. Was over before he got too bored and got to see a couple homers. Thanks @UTPhil2006 for the suggestion about the first game certificate, had plenty of

The White Sox would murder Jeulks for him

Well with the bar set that high

But Dubon's wRC+ is at 105 now.  Maybe he'll hang on for his first ever above average season.

Bregman's at bat in the 8th was absolutely fantastic. Saw 3 pitches nowhere close and 4 that were dotted. Laces a 98 mph fastball on the black to right.

Bregman is best trying to be a .300 hitter with 15 bombs shooting the ball the other way

Jake at 775 ops and gold glove level defense. 5th outfielder. DFA! DFA! DFA!

Its hard to accept new Jake, he hit an Oppo bomb that I cheered then struck out on a ball in the other box that I cussed for two straight innings.

It’s not DFA and it’s not Wulaw. He’s a solid role player at this point and that’s all we need out of him

Top 3 best Wins of the year.

After leaving 14 LOBsters on the bases last night, and shitty defense costing multiple runs in both games, it was really nice to see us make them pay with bases juiced in 2-out situations. Dubon and Bregman with major redemption today.

Through the first 14 innings of this series, it was beginning to feel like the win streak and getting back to .500 was fools gold, and we were backsliding into old bad habits.

He sucks with 2 strikes 

most guys do

But he’s batting  .075 if the count gets to two strikes at any point 

(as I say that, in addition to the homer, he also singled with 2 strikes today).

That's a good stat, now I think of it most of his hits are first pitch fastballs.

trade him straight up for Julio Rodriguez or Luis Robert.

Are you under the impression someone said he's better than those guys?  Or that we have the option to get one of them?

That .333 slugging and .072 ISO.  He's slappier than Dubon this year.

But Julio is 5 years younger and a Big Boy, so I'm pretty sure the M's will hold onto him.  And for all I know, his production may be more evenly distributed!

Oh and that graphic didn't include yesterday's games yet.  OPS is now .775 vs .628.

#11391

Dubin should be good for 6 Cy Young level innings today, but it will probably have to be a combined no hitter with King and Contreras.  If only we still had Nick Hernandez...

#11393

With this bullpen day shit it is gonna be a miracle if we win

(Last time i said it would be a miracle based on lineup we actually won so lets keep the miracles going)
