"With each passing day, each line drive to left, each six-run game, it becomes harder to assign the performance of those teams to their cheating. The Astros’ numbers can’t just be a product of TV monitors and trash cans, not when in the absence of those they’re even better."

Which was lunhow’s point and the only thing that rang true to me- they did a study and it wasn’t particularly helpful which is what hey stopped half way through 18.

Maybe it’s because I’ve been following him since Corpus, but I swear Urquidy is a ~5 year veteran…and then realize he’s 9-5 in his career with 25 starts.

 

of course that doesn’t include 8 postseason appearances and 4 starts in October, which is pretty impressive considering he hasn’t even hit the 2 year anniversary of his MLB debut

Everyone at MLB and ESPN can kiss both sides of my ballbag.

Rest of the league: maybe it wasn’t the height of their cheating…

 

 

Go Astros.  Pour it the fuck on.

Altuve off today, Straw hitting leadoff

Not surprising and well deserved. A cursory glance tells me he hasn’t had a game day off since May 14.

Who gets the day off today in the Baker Bingo lineup?

Altuve hasn't had a day off since May 14th. Is today the day? If so, would you put Correa in the leadoff spot?

I still think I'd rather Correa hit leadoff
