MLB - JULY 2017


RIPPA

I've seen claims he doesn't have vitiligo and is just being weird, so who knows. That's from black or Dominican folks who think he's ashamed of himself on twitter of course. Who knows the real reason.

This Red Sox/Yanks game will never end

Thankfully, it ended with a Yankee win. If it went any longer, CC Sabathia was the next pitcher in line for the Yankees. 

They have a double-header to look forward to tomorrow.

This Bellinger kid is out of this world. First Dodger to hit for the cycle since Orlando Hudson in the 2009 home opener, and only the third in the LA years, Wes Parker did it in 1970.

LAD is unconscious right now, tonight makes it 8 in a row and 28 of their last 32.

The Nationals made their long-awaited strike for bullpen help, acquiring relievers Sean Doolittle and Ryan Madson from the Athletics, FOX Sports’ Ken Rosenthal reports (Twitter links).  Right-hander Blake Treinen, minor league left-hander Jesus Luzardo and minor league third baseman Sheldon Neuse,  The Nats have officially announced the move, adding that Joe Ross has been transferred to the 60-day DL to create roster space.

I hadn't had much of a chance to watch him pitch, but I definitely see where the comparisons to Jon Lester come from.  Moves the ball around the plate, changes speeds.  Really good stuff.

Nice to see the Cubs offense return, too, even if it was against the pitching machines the Orioles call a rotation.

In one of those "today we are acknowledging our Expos past" moments - Ryan Zimmerman hit a HR today to pass Vlad as the franchise's all-time leader in HR

Zim has 235

Vlad has 234

Andre Dawson had 225

(For the record - Bryce Harper is already 6th on the list)

Michael Pineda elected to have TJ surgery

Figuring he is going to have to sign a one year prove it deal this offseason

He may get a two year deal like Nathan Eovaldi did with Tampa. This year for Eovaldi is spent rehabbing, see what you have next year.

Exactly the reception he deserves

The Yankees have re-acquired David Robertson, along with 3B/1B Todd Frazier, and reliever Tommy Kahnle from the White Sox in exchange for OF prospect Blake Rutherford (2016 1st round pick), pitching prospect Ian Clarkin, reliever Tyler Clippard, and OF prospect Tito Polo. Polo was acquired from Pittsburgh last year in the Ivan Nova trade.
