John from Cincinnati Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 In the first game of a double header against the Tigers today, Ohtani pitched a CGSO allowing only one hit. In the second game, he hit his league-leading 37th and 38th home runs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobra Commander Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 early "fun" in St. Louis with Ian Happ's backswing hitting Cardinals scapegoat Willson Contreras, knocking him out of the game, then Miles Mikolas hits Happ (on the second try) and gets ejected, and now the Cubs are putting the boots to the Cardinals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobra Commander Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 the Royals trading Nicky Lopez to the Braves trade is getting panned because the Royals got an older player who had only pitched once for the Braves and was available last week Nicky Lopez had a super-fluky 2021 but outside of 2021, he's an infielder who doesn't hit but amasses value through defense The Royals have a clusterfuck of random pitchers that they can't seem to coherently sort through because they have 13 spots and 23 pitchers on their 40 man.

I mean, the NL Central sucks and the Cubs are hot, relatively speaking. They think they have a shot at the division and honestly, they probably do, but they also need a lot of help in the pitching department. Of course this is the Cubs and this going to blow up spectacularly in their faces by missing the playoffs and getting nothing for Belli, nothing from Stro, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolfan in NYC Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 The Metropolitans continue to blow things up as Mark Canha was just sent to Milwaukee. The fun part is, the guy they got in return, Justin Jarvis, was the Brewers' 30th best prospect. He now ranks as New York's 13th best. And it looks like Justin Verlander is gonna be dealt very soon. Houston, LA, and a "mystery team~" (maybe Baltimore?) are vying for his services. JV has a full no-trade so he'll have to approve any move, but it sounds like he's cool with it.
