Dbacks beat Cubs 1-0, ChC up 2 in the 2nd/3rd WC chase. 

Mia is 1 back, they lost Alacantara & Soler. 

[Scraps 13461]

Did not see Chicago making a run at it.....well actually it was more of me giving the Reds way too much credit and didn't think they would collapse

He knows he sucks after 75 pitches. Servais should know it too.

Admittedly, Dominguez has looked pretty good so far. Now do the other youngsters that are on the roster.

Not a doubt in my mind she talks like Rowena from Biloxi.

I hate the pitchers batting, until this back and forth occurs.

I too was surprised at Acuna's reaction over that particular pitch.  really, that's the one that bugged you?

Yankees rookie Dominguez, The Martian; is likely out for rest of 2023 and 1st half of 2024 with torn UCL in elbow.

Yeah, that blows.   I can’t even muster up a dig at Helo.

[Helobious 9394]

That makes him the 3rd non-pitcher Yankee to tear his UCL since 2019 I think. There’s something wildly horribly wrong with our strength and conditioning staff. Hopefully he gets the surgery now and takes his time coming back. I know Harper returned in like 5 months when he tore his but it took him a couple more months after to get his power back

[Scraps 13461]

This Toronto/Rangers game is full on dumbassery. Mainly by Bassitt at the moment. Dude needs a chill pill lol

[shadow_operative2.0 15669]

Idiot rookie for the Angels fails to tag as the go-ahead run in top 9. 

Does anyone in that organization know how to play the sport correctly? 

[shadow_operative2.0 15669]

Drury did not appreciate that post. 

[Beau Vine 53625]

This Julio fellow might turn out to be pretty good.

[shadow_operative2.0 15669]

Julio dead center to tie it in bot 10. 

[Scraps 13461]

Xander just pegged a kid with a homer in LA

I laughed

I think the Greinke 3000 Ks dream is over.

He is 34 away. 1-15 on the season with almost 5.50 ERA. Can barely make it 4 innings on a "good" day. Has probably only 3 more starts left and has been getting like at most 4 Ks a start.

Probably come up about 20 short.

Not sure he will get signed anywhere next year to reach 3000.

Maybe Kansas City will bring him back when he’s 58.

Angels lose on a walk-off CS.  Lulz.

Bummer, the boy is like a 10 min walk to Fenway.  Northeastern has a deal where you can get a limited number of student tix for $9.  Gets them to Yanks v Sox tonight, and it’s rained out and rescheduled for tomorrow.  He can’t go tomorrow.  

[Scraps 13461]

Chaim Bloom fired lol

[WBT 20132]

That didn't take long but I guess he already outlasted Click by a year

Any other shitty tampa GMs still out there?

Yankee pitcher just took one off the noggin from a line drive, looked nasty.

[VirginiaLonghorn 4717]

O’s took it off their collective noggins .. it was nasty.

[UTexasFight 9288]

Just looked at the standings for the NL wild card race, which will get even tighter after the D-Backs finish the Cubs tonight (where Stroman is on for the first time since end of July)

Gil, don’t die yet. We need more updates when a fucking P catches a popup, you goddamn fucking mongoloid. 

Quote

Anthony Rendon, speaking publicly for the first time in two months, revealed Friday that he has been diagnosed with a fractured tibia by doctors outside the purview of the Los Angeles Angels. The Angels have consistently described Rendon's injury as a deep bone bruise.

Asked why the Angels didn't initially announce his injury as a fractured tibia, Rendon said, "You got to ask them."

Angels general manager Perry Minasian didn't respond to a request for comment. A source close to the team told ESPN that Rendon initially saw four doctors -- two chosen by the Angels, two chosen by Rendon's side -- that diagnosed him with a deep bone bruise. A fifth doctor diagnosed him with the fractured tibia. Rendon, who didn't provide details on the process, said the fracture diagnosis occurred while the team visited his hometown to play the Houston Astros during the second week of August.

In retrospect, that play where Ohtani caught the popup was metaphorically the defining play of his career so far
