Or that you pitched 5 innings, did meh, and your offense wailed on the other pitcher. Wins are fun, and I'd like to see them mean something tangible again, but that time's behind us.

I don't think it puts added pressure on umps to call strikes within 1/10th of an inch. I think ABS is an added strategy dimension like time outs in football. The ABS zone isn't even the actual zone. The real zone is a 3-D space, and ABS is a 2-D snapshot. They're not even measuring the same thing. A ball shown to be 0.1 inch outside may have caught the back corner, and just shows how balls on a lot of these people really are.

If I was walking around with a 10-year sentence in my pocket, I'd probably keep a lower profile.

2024 aside, even in lopsided years, it's really hard for one team to sweep the 6 game season series.

St. Louis appears to be playing Pereira as a straight platoon. His batting line looks good, but he's striking out almost a third of his low number of at-bats. I wish him well. Getz was right about him, he just couldn't stay healthy, and the Sox felt better about Doyle. The people who railed on about another 100-loss season now believe their negativity somehow created this first place team, and Getz/Venable can only mess up their commenting work. I still don't think Getz could have gotten 2 front line starters without emptying the farm, and maybe not even then. Nobody really thinks what it means to complain how Doyle is a worthless bum, but he still cost Adams and Vielma on the market. If Adams and Vielma was the price for a worthless bum, they don't seem to be able to explain how Adams and Vielma would have brought back Detmers or better.

Don't forget the Grady Sizemore fling. I think Will is doing fine. He will fully deserve whatever accolades he collects after the season.

Although, streaking in 1906 was like running on the field without your hat and overcoat.

If he's pitching like this, he's definitely top 5 right now.

Bleacher style fist-fights breaking out everywhere. The Orange Line, taking the written test at the DMV, under the Bean

And yet, they played to a 3-3 tie overall.

The Cub dude with the baby blue hat was wailing on the big boy cub fan moments earlier.

I don't have a problem with either. Maybe reset challenges back to 2 each every 3 innings so they don't run out early?

Okay, this calls for something stronger

But of course, the White Sox should just DFA him to show that Chris Getz is his own man.

Yeah, that's why you have Rogers in the lineup.

13 for 27, 3 doubles, 6/5 BB/K. I hate to break it to you, but anybody Getz's organization develops is going to dominate anywhere they go. Getzie's boys are taught to win.

Video or it didn't happen.

That ground out was the Cubs' World Series.

6 players with double digit home runs.

I hope that kid finds a younger kid to give that ball to.
