I know you’re disappointed we let him go, but you’ll just have to get used to the idea that Trayce Thompson is gone for good and he’s never coming back.

I'm not disappointed.  Water will find its level.  There's a reason he was so readily available last year.

Water always does find its level. And then guys retire. Rinse and repeat.

Paredes and The Rays are 8-0. You can only beat who you play, but they opened with Det, Wash, Oakland, so that helped.

And we opened against the Rays, Astros, and Red Sox, and will face the Blue Jays, Giants, Guardians, Orioles, Brewers, and then Orioles again to wind up the month. No rest for the weary.

Not only are the Rays 8-0 but they won every game by 4 or more runs, that is just insane. I have to believe there haven't been many instances in MLB history where a team has won that many games in a row by that much runs.

A very good team playing against 3 shitty teams.  Perfect storm

Rays 9-0 now, after 11-0 win, Red Sox up next.

[RandyMarsh]

 

[RatkoVarda]

Rays up 9-3, so unless AJ Hinch is hired as their manager for the 9th inning, they will be 13-0.

[casimir]

Pretty soon the Rays are going to have a winning streak that is larger than their paid attendance.

[RandyMarsh]

I know the Rays schedule has been easy but still not only starting 13-0 but winning by the margins they have is absolutely remarkable,they are outscoring teams by almost 6 runs a game!  That may literally be unheard of in MLB history for a 13-0 stretch.

Oakland A's pitchers last night: 17 R, 11 H, 17 BB, 7 K

I was going to say stay classy White Sox fans, but when have White Sox fans ever been classy 

 

[Tiger337]

Imagine bringing your family to a game and sitting next to trash like that.  

[RandyMarsh]

White Sox fans are just the worst! I know every fan base has bad apples but they seem to have more than everybody else, been to probably a dozen games there and every time I witnessed some sorta incident. Stopped wearing Tigers gear when I went just to try to avoid any said incidents.

The use of “women throwing haymakers” made me laugh audibly

Don't want this to turn into a political debate about our Healthcare system, just wanted to post this cause I thought it was an awesome gesture by the Dodgers and I hope Toles gets the help he needs. I remember back when there were talks of us trading Kinsler to the Dodgers his name was one of the prospects that was speculated.

Only kind of baseball-related Anthony Bass is getting roasted because he is mad United wouldn't clean up after his kids and his 22 Week pregnant wife had to do it.

Can’t watch Tigers tonight…

I saw yesterday that Tatis Jr. hit 6 HRs in 12PAs on his AAA rehab assignment, yeah I say he is ready.
