That isn't exactly a big stretch Throw out their records against the White Sox, KC, Minnesota and Detroit are all below .500. This happens another year or 2 some teams will start complaining about the White Sox.

September 23, 20241 yr Hopefully when this all washes out, we’re left with the Yankees, Orioles, Astros, and Guardians playing in the Division Series. Same in the NL- give me Dodgers, Padres, Brewers, and Phillies. Let’s have the chalk battle it out this October.

The Rockies made it more difficult for the D'Backs and put the Cubs out of it. You play to win every game because sucking in April and May my look even worse Sept. "Plenty of baseball left" is the wrong attitude coming from a manager.
September 27, 20241 yr Jeffers the poster child for everything that went wrong down the stretch. Royce Lewis went into a huge skid too. Mariners and Twins both choked. Braves just had too many injuries to overcome....but they could still make it if KC relaxes now.
September 27, 20241 yr Tigers magic number is 1. Can clinch their spot with a win tonight on the field.

November 8, 20241 yr How Cole Ragans Built On His Breakout Season October 14th, 2024 at 9:38pm CST • By Mark Polishuk "Ragans turns 27 in December, and still has another full season remaining before reaching salary arbitration. Locking up Ragans to a contract extension would help the Royals get some cost certainty over a pitcher whose ceiling only seems to be rising, plus the rotation could use some solidification since Wacha will surely exercise his opt-out clause and test free agency again. On the flip side, since Ragans is under team control through his age-30 season and already has two Tommy John surgeries on his resume, the Royals might well hold off on any serious extension talks and just go year-by-year with Ragans for now. Deciding how to best deal with the unexpected windfall of a frontline pitcher is a nice problem for the Royals to have, and in hindsight the Ragans trade was the first sign that K.C. was going to able to rebound from its 106-loss disaster. An inability to develop homegrown pitching prospects stalled the Royals’ rebuild for years, so there is some irony in the fact that the team’s emergence has now been led in part by another team’s seemingly stalled prospect." https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/10/how-cole-ragans-built-on-his-breakout-season.html Edited November 8, 20241 yr by caulfield12
November 23, 20241 yr The Royals just traded Sox killer Brady Singer for Jonathan India and Joey Wiemer. Should help Witt Jr some on offense.

April 21, 2025Apr 21 “When you want to do something so bad, it gets harder to do. We can’t worry about what happened last week or what happened yesterday,” Baldelli preached after the Atlanta Braves finished off their sweep of the Twins on Sunday. “You can’t play the game worried. You can’t play the game concerned you didn’t get it done the last time. This is a forward-looking game.” “Frustration can build sometimes. I can’t say that’s why we’re not getting it done … but this series, we didn’t have any balls find any grass when we needed it,” Baldelli said, citing the Twins’ 10 baserunners but zero run-scoring hits behind them Sunday. “Listen, this has not been an easy go of it by any means, and we’re going to have to continue to fight offensively, to find ourselves and work through it, to figure it out.” https://www.startribune.com/minnesota-twins-atlanta-braves-rocco-baldelli-justin-topa-opener-christian-vazquez-14-pitch-at-bat/601335234
