With Andujar's injury, do they maybe become a landing spot for Rendon if we break things up at the deadline?

I wonder how many times the shift helped him get outs. I'm sure he didn't nag about that.

I was looking at the standing and I can’t believe how well the Twins are doing. Best record in baseball and a run differential of +111. That’s sick. They are the anti Nationals

Yazstremski's grandson had his first MLB hit for the Giants and was promptly picked off afterwards.

Tampa set a new low attendance record last night - 5,786.  Miami beat them with an announced attendance of 6,407

Kind of wish they'd post the actual turnstile attendance... I figure Tampa must still have some sort of season ticket base, no matter how low.

And Tampa is good!! How long can MLB let that team languish in an area that clearly couldn't care less about them?

As long as their lease with St. Pete keeps them there.

If Mike Yaz's first homer since his debut with SF was against Andrew Cashner, does it count as his first major league homer?

The whole story is worth a read, but the anecdote about Pressly makes me wonder about all the guys who’ve pitched so much better since leaving here

also about not stagnating after the 1/1 picks dried up.

thanks for sharing. depressing to read considering our organizational makeup, but a great look at how the best do it.

with pressly, the yankees did a very similar thing with brandon mccarthy, telling him to throw more cutters, less fastballs. he was great for them. with nathan eovaldi, they taught him a splitter, and then they tweaked his grip to get a different look at the splitter/have it drop more, then he took off (and got hurt). stuff like that is super interesting because organizations approach coaching so differently. we aren't the only team who has DFA'd or traded a guy who then gets tweaked and turns into a stud.

Quote
With the Astros’ edge in the draft shrinking, the front office refocused its efforts on an area where the frontier wasn’t so settled. “Working for Jeff, there is always a culture of innovation and searching for the next thing that could perhaps improve us,” Mejdal says. “There’s no problem with bad ideas and false alarms. And so that culture probably led us to focus on player development.”

This is what I feel this organization lacks.

David Ortiz hospitalized after being shot in Dominican Republic. I think he’s going to be OK though.
