Rutherford starting against a lefty

Spit my beer

If they add a pitcher, Minaya would be a good guess. Covey is listed as the probable starter on Monday, so maybe they aren’t inserting a spot start yet.

http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?cid=&lid=&org=145&sc=&sid=milb&t=affiliate&ymd=20180616 Adams AAA debut Winston-Salem at 5pm on NBCSCH

First 100 interleague games: NL leads AL 57-43 AL East vs NL East 14-18 AL Central vs NL Central 18-27 AL West vs NL West 11-12

Four team divisions wouldn’t work in baseball. There would be under.500 teams making the playoffs. That can’t happen. If they do it, 16-team leagues, close to a balanced schedule, 1 and 2 seeds get a bye, 3 hosts 6 and 4 hosts 5 in a best of 3. If the 6-seed is under .500, they don’t make the playoffs...3-seed gets a bye too. Then best of 5’s until the World Series. Only the World Series is best of 7.

I’d be pissed if they went to radical realignment with the Cubs and Sox playing each other every month. And the 4-team division idea is stupid. Won’t work in baseball. If they go to 32, it would have to be 4 divisions of 8 teams.

40-man at 39. 34 games in 34 days. Could be a starter coming up not on the 40-man soon...like Monday (Donn Roach).

Dunning is probably ready for AAA, but no rush.

Eloy in Charlotte a week from tonight, I would think.

Wake up, Grudz.

It would be abuse if he goes out for the 4th.

Kopech being close to the majors is laughable...other than he’s in AAA.

Not a good start for Kopech.

Great!

Cabera The more you know...

Daniel is our big toe

Robert got a pinch hit single. Was hoping he was moving apartments today.

2 out of 3 without a homerun. I’ll take it!

Good, even though it may backfire. He needs this experience.

Collins striking out looking a few times in the last couple games.

Winston-Salem home tomorrow. Maybe he’s moving up.

Covey turns 27 in August. Look at this guy's stats around the same age, and since... https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/k/klubeco01.shtml You just never know.

Big separation from 5 to 7- 5.5 games. Five teams still on pace to lose 104+ games, but Fangraphs only has the Sox and Marlins losing 99. 100 games left. 40-60 will have the Sox finish 61-101. I'd take that...and it would be watchable if they win 40% of their remaining games.
