Only concern with Skenes is his velocity is down this year, which seems to be making his offspeed ineffective so he's getting hit harder. He's pitching more like a #2 or #3 this year (at least by ERA). If Pittsburgh is worried about his health then they might be open to trading him, otherwise it'd be unlikely IMO they'd trade him during a down year. Baseball Savant for the comparison between 2025 and 2026

It's smart to do so. Peters has zero track record and his Savant data does not support this performance. He's more like a .700 OPS guy, which is just fine with his defense in a platoon.

If the Angels didn't blow we'd be up 4.5 on them

Finally, a mostly easy one

Nice sweeper there

They are really good at challenges

55 pitches in not even two innings

Ohh yeah. I forgot about that whole saga.

And Keaschall is not a CF, so Oakland gets the lead

Oakland with a real good chance to tie or take the lead against Minnesota

NO! NO MORE CANNON!

Diaz was sitting fastball that entire at bat. One good offspeed was gonna get him. Thank goodness Cannon threw a decent sweeper.

Wait he walked Nicky Lopez? Immediate DFA while on the mound.

I kind of get getting Cannon a couple innings of work with a big lead and save the bullpen, but BOY does he suck.

Cannon sucks

No, single game results are gospel

Your Church of Getz membership and tshirt are in the mail

Vargas in "fine I'll do it all myself" mode

I thought Burger got that one.

Tristan "Barry Bonds" Peters

They've been a bad offense and I don't see how. They battle like crazy and put good swings on the ball.

Sigh. More baserunners.

Boy I was sure he was out by a mile at home lol. Throw was awful.

Should be bases loaded.
