    Blackburn slides right into a regular spot in the rotation. He'll stay there because, once you've had Blackburn you can't go back. Later

    I miss Senga already. Later

    MLB announced that increased drag on the baseballs has caused fly balls to travel 4 feet less this year than they did last year. The confirmation from MLB responded to a report by The Athletic, which reviewed fly ball and drag information available to the public. The review found that there has been more drag on the ball in 2025 than in any of the previous nine seasons during which MLB has tracked this data. Those results would appear to indicate that the ball used this season is different. Yet no cause for the increase in drag has been determined. https://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/article/mlb-acknowledges-that-increased-drag-on-baseballs-has-led-to-fly-balls-traveling-4-feet-less-this-year-181553140.htmlhttps://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/article/mlb-acknowledges-that-increased-drag-on-baseballs-has-led-to-fly-balls-traveling-4-feet-less-this-year-181553140.html Later

    Tonight, he didn't. 5.1IP 5H 3R 3ER 2BB 3K his ERA is now 5.31 Later

    Max Kranick has been called up to replace Senga. Later

    He's now 0-24, but I doubt if he will break the string with a homer off Warren Spahn. Later

And, wait! He's getting Tommy John surgery and his name is Jobe?!? How did the Tigers not see this coming? They didn't draft the guy named DeBakey. Later

    Is it too superstitious to wish that Francisco Alvarez' wife has a baby every day? Later

    Edgy MD wrote: It's that lineup with Baty at second and Mauricio at third, and Nimmo in left and McNittens in center. It's counter-intuitive, but I suppose Mendoza has his reasons. That's the kind of defense you send out there behind a strikeout pitcher, and I'm not sure Davis is that kind of guy. He pitches more "to contact". This could be interesting. Later

    Thank you, Neil Degrasse Tysons for predicting the risk of that cataclysmic event. Later

    They've also played former #1 Jett Williams in center when he isn't playing shortstop. He's currently hitting around .280 in Binghamton. But the regular Bingy center fielder, Nick Morabito is also hitting around .285 with about 20 steals. I'm not sure if either will be ready for the majors this year. Later

    Pena is now 0-21. Later

    I kinda' like that announcing duo. True enthusiasm. not manufactured, like Suzyn and (name the partner). Later

    If anyone else got it, there should be an investigation. Later

    Judging prospects too early (like they did with Crow-Armstrong and Allen) can be tricky. For example, Elian Peña, the 17-year-old with five-tool potential at shortstop from the Dominican Republic who earned a franchise record $5 million international signing bonus this year, is still looking for his first hit after 17 AB. Will he be good? Nobody knows. But they're betting big money that he will. Later

    Edgy MD wrote: Not giving designated hitters a negative score for defense would give them an overall defensive rating that is higher than many players who play defense, and would advantage them unfairly. That makes numerical sense. Later
  20. MFS62
    That's a silly to me as putting ingredient labels on spring water. They should not have any defensive rating for someone who doesn't play defense. It should be shown as 'N/A". Later

    Sub optimal is one thing, but Ohtani's should logically be non-existent. How do the numbers folks explain something like that? Later

    Edgy MD wrote: Your point is not lost on me, but his elite defense has contributed beaucoup points to his value. That made me curious, so I looked up the DWar for each of them: PCA +1.2 Alonso - .6 Ohtani -.6 The first two seem reasonable. Yes, PCA is a good defender and we've seen Pete play good (at times excellent) defense this year, and for some reason, first basemen start out with a negative defensive score, BUT How does Ohtani even have a defensive score when he hasn't played one inning in the field this year? Doesn't make sense. Later

    ... until the first time the data tells him to expect a breaking ball on the outside half of the plate and he gets a fastball in the cup instead. But as long as it works, I hope he keeps it up. Later

    Yabbutt, they left 9 on base. Later
