Niekro averaged 40 starts and 305 innings pitched over a 7 year period from 1974-1980. He had more innings pitched over that stretch than Chris Sale has for his entire 15 year career…

I don't care -- I still believe in Joe Milton.

He definitely has the easiest path to becoming a starting QB based on his skill set. Unfortunately he has never learned to be consistent so I don’t think he will ever be anything more than a spot starter for injuries.

Well this isn’t very lady-like…

Sounds like Old Tennessee athletics are starting to creep back in. We have an idiot receiver that was driving on a suspended license due to failure to appear in court in August of 2024 and now we have a women’s basketball player thinking they are a Billy Badass kicking in doors getting into fights. These players want to get paid, well if they get into trouble they should be put on NIL probation and all paychecks put on hold until they are back in good standing. Treat it like financial aid in that if you aren’t in good academic standing then you can’t have the aid until you are back in good standing.

Got his ERA down to 4.25 now. If you start to look at the numbers, he was actually worse last year for Houston.

Hunter Greene will be returning for the Reds on Wednesday. Only trail the Mets by 2.5 games for the last WC spot. That’s the equivalent of picking up an ace at the trade deadline.

No matter how we spin it, he’s had a rough last couple of seasons.

The Yankees are about to fall out of the last spot as well.

Brewers are on

With the way the postseason is setup now, I really don’t understand why anyone would be sellers unless you have a great opportunity to win the draft lottery. Even with the Twins having a season not up to expectations, they are only 5.5 games out of a wildcard spot. I would take my chances and ride out the season and see what happens.

Are we sure about this...

Brewers are on

The Brewers are damn good at playing baseball.
We’ll see how their style translates to a playoff scenario.

There is something brewing in the beer, brats, snd cheese up there.

Cal Raleigh hits another homer. I think that’s three straight games now and up to 45 on the season. On pace for 63 dongs now.
