Comfortable at bats for these hitters.

Ok, Rodon. Let’s try to keep the pitch count down, huh?

I know he works for the Chicago Sun Times, but we're on daylight time, not standard.

Bad call ump. Dick.

Cease, ya ever been to beautiful Schaumburg, Illinois?

Maybe my opinion will change, but I'm feeling like I can't enjoy this season anymore. I'm glad they tried. I'm glad they had summer camp to do baseball activities and be in the public view for a month. But after seeing this for 4-5 days, and especially with the Marlins situation, it's not an enjoyable thing right now. It's just a little too uncomfortable to witness what's going on. Hope things get better though, and nobody gets hurt/sick. Vent over,

Eh. Scoreless inning. 21 pitches, 11 strikes. Smash ground out to 1B. A walk, A K. He looked like same guy with bad body language on the mound.

I guess, but he made the team, and it's a little aggressive to DFA a guy that's been a part of your team that long.

Foltynewicz DFA. Say what?

Really hope they bring up Madrigal on Friday in KC. They drafted him 4th to be the future 2B. He's the best defensive 2B they have and he was hitting in AA and AAA last year. This season is a little wacky, granted. But just play him. Bat him 9th. Let him make all of the plays, and see what he does for 50 games.

Renteria tested negative

Fulmer is in...if you give a shit.

He’s warming up in the pen. Royals are going to crush Gio on Saturday, by the way.

Michael Fulmer out of the game early, and Carson is on the Tigers active roster. Might get in there.

...and that’s why we don’t need to see him elbow bumping with players before the game. Hope he’s negative though.

Most likely on Saturday in KC. Maybe one and done.

The rain looks like it’s going through now. Some of the future radar models look ok for later tonight.

The A’s had a walk off homer over the weekend. Party at home plate (maybe a little lighter than normal), water thrown in the face. The whole bit. How was this not talked about and absolutely forbidden before the season started?

This is strike one for MLB. I’m glad they’re continuing, but once they get to strike three, they’re done. It’s going to take a lot of luck and diligence to get these nine weeks completed.

Ok, maybe it’s how the Marlins still played yesterday.

So what’s David Price’s solution? No season, no pay...see ya next year?

We’ll see. Again, hopefully they can play through this with taxi squad players, and the rest of the league sees this as a warning to do everything in their power to protect themselves and others.

I got a hankering for a meatball sandwich.

Hopefully they can get past this, but have it be a warning not to get in each other’s faces. Be miserable for 9 weeks...it may make you millions of dollars someday. No hugs, no fist bumps, no high fives, don’t spit near anyone, wear a mask where they tell you to, stay in your hotel room and get spankovision, whatever you have to do to lessen the possibility of getting and spreading it.

Funny, but they played. It counts.
