Astros calling up Derek Fisher. Dude was hitting very well in the minors. Want(ed) him in a deal for Q as a third piece.

 

Showcase for pitching trade?

There was no structural damage in Julio Urias's shoulder, Dave Roberts said. He was shut down with inflammation. No timetable.

 

I know some posters, including myself, wanted Urias if we traded Sale/Q to the Dodgers. He's having shoulder problems apparently.

Yankees’ CC Sabathia diagnosed with Grade 2 hamstring strain:

Sale facing the Phillies tonight. Over/under 13.5 K?

Sale 8 k in 4 innings. 54 pitches.

Still scoreless going into bottom of 8th...Phillies up.

 

Ty Kelly unties it with a double.

 

Sale follows it with three 98 mph fastballs, despite over 100 pitches already, lol. Red Sox 0/27 when trailing after 8.

LP- Sale

 

Looked funny legging out a double.

Moving Machado to SS for the short term makes sense since they don't have the prospects to get someone like Cozart but that would put them firmly in the Todd Frazier sweepstakes with the Red Sox and Yankees.

Only out 4-6 weeks so probably not.

Can the Dodgers give up Bellinger for Q? :)

21 homers in less than 200 at bats. His dad was lucky to hit that many his entire career.

Why is it in the last 2 years NY amd LA have got the HR mashing rookies ? No wonder the Sox drafted a bunch of guys with power potential. Watching Bellinger swing the bat makes my back hurt. That is one violent yet awesome swing.

Kenley Jansen has a K/BB that is undefined.

A's DFA Stephen Vogt.

I've heard and read in different places recently that "the ball is juiced" this year. Heard radio show hosts suggest it. Have read it on message boards and in the comments below articles.

 

Are we falling for this again? Aren't people suspicious of PEDs again? I am. I don't know that I'll ever trust athletic accomplishments again.

The reason people are suggesting juiced balls is because the homerun rate leaguewide spiked literally overnight in 2015. If PEDs were the main cause the change would have been more gradual rather than immediate and also would not only affect the hitters.

I think it's both. The Sox are averaging over 4.6 runs a game. That just doesn't happen by chance. And it's League wide.

Until they start doing baseline blood serum levels, you always need to be suspicious of new designer PEDs.
