September 1, 20187 yr It's simply amazing to me that with all the moves that the Dodgers made, they are still 2.5 games away from a playoff spot. The NL is so deep. Phillies are 4 GB from the wild card. Rockies 3 GB. Just amazing how many good teams in the NL.

September 2, 20187 yr Dbacks and Dodgers in the 9th inning, but there is currently a 3-way tie in the NL West with 26 games left. Once in a while there’s a decent division race. This could be a good one. (Dodgers win, and they the easiest remaining schedule. Dbacks have the toughest.) Edited September 2, 20187 yr by flavum
September 4, 20187 yr Speaking of Dodgers, don't know if anyone saw this. There was a tweet out over the weekend that I caught where Machado said he'd be willing to move back to 3rd base next year depending on the needs of the team he signs with.
September 5, 20187 yr A fan was kicked out of the stadium in Houston for having a sign with a domestic abuse hotline phone number on it. Don’t want to make your wifebeater closer uncomfortable.
September 6, 20187 yr He really needs to just give up on the pitching dream. He can still be a hell of a position player.

The popular opinion is his splitter is what is causing his elbow issues. Maybe he ditches it when he is able to pitch again. And now maybe we see why he jumped to the US even though he wouldn't get paid. He probably figured this was around the corner and would have suppressed his contract anyway.

He did have an injury history including the elbow.
