Saw Wacha shove against us a few months ago. Would have loved him at the deadline

Could have had Lugo…probably didn’t want to pay him too as well as Castillo

Why the Royals Didn’t Trade Michael Wacha?

The Kansas City Royals chose to keep Michael Wacha after the 2026 trade deadline because they saw him as a core piece of their 2027 rebuilding plan and didn’t want to replace him with another deal.

1. Strategic focus on core and stability
General Manager J.J. Picollo and the front office emphasized sticking with their core to compete in 2027, especially given the Royals’ pitching injuries this season MLB. Wacha was viewed as one of their most dependable starters, with a 3.51 ERA in 22 starts in 2026 and multiple quality starts royalskeep.com. Trading him would have meant replacing him, which they didn’t want to do.

A certain Bears’ defensive back two years ago at the end of the game?

This act

Yeah. But Allison was still this calendar year lol

Two different fly balls off the wall by Phillies with bad base running cost them that game

Today shaping up to be worst case scenario

Yep, if Toronto wins that would certainly make it so.

Hoping Sacramento can walk off the Jays again....or the Athletics can score a bunch late....I'm not picky.

I am not sure I can handle this division race to be honest. I am getting stressed out, can't stop thinking about every game lol

Those who still believe that the sox still have a chance to win this division have to be miserable by now. Those of us who came to the realization that this team wasn’t winning their division, several weeks ago, don’t have that burden.

Good news??

I just looked it up and now it seems like our Sox have the easiest remaining schedule followed by Toronto and then Cleveland.

Based on winning % of remaining opponents

Hear what you are writing of course you still have to actually win those games.

Cool. I'm glad you are preparing to sit out of celebrations when we win the division.

Get a little help from Sacramento....Blue Jays are shut out 2-0 by the Athletics

Toronto 5 GB in the loss column with just 15 games remaining for them to make it up.

Makes me feel a bit better knowing that just cause their schedule is easy doesn't mean they'll actually win.

Think the Jays are who we are in 2022. Everyone waiting for the run that just doesn't come.

They even have Dylan Cease finishing 2nd in Cy Young.

and CLE already up 2-0. they are 13-6 in the last 19 games

DeLauter is really coming into his own recently

Bazzana has fallen back a bit

Rangers lost so they are -2, Toronto -1

They are 6-6 since completing their nine game stretch against the three worst teams in baseball. I’ve said before they get credit for taking advantage of said schedule but don’t let that fool anyone into thinking they’re some red hot, great team.

Nice rebuild, O’s. Dickheads.
