They have a 2 game series that starts tomorrow and ends saturday

Yankees & Mets only play each other 4 times but it's split home & away. I guess that's the formula if two teams play in the same vicinity but are in different leagues. It starting on a Friday is odd b/c these kinds of series are always in the middle of the week.

Marcus Stroman is having a good season so far.

But this is Fool’s Gold.

I would not want to offer a lot in a trade for him.

I don’t think he will necessarily be bad. But I would be cautious with offering top minor leaguers or a long term contract.

If a team does want him, it should be a team that plays in a fairly large park. Stroman doesn’t have swing-and-miss stuff so I’d prefer to see him in Seattle or someplace like that, where the HR is slightly less of a threat.

To be fair, Stroman is fantastic at keeping the ball on the ground. I’m just saying though.

This is the most baseball I ever watched. The sport is doing damn well. The only 2 blips are the Angels being the Angels and SD shytting the bed. Other than that the talent level is better than it’s ever been

3 total hits thru 10 innings between the Jays & White Sox

Henderson has arrived.

This upcoming Padres/Mets series should feel like October in July. Both teams fighting for their postseason lives.

I still remember him popping up on Unsung to talk about Johnny Gill thinking "TVOne really managed to get him to talk? "

It was interesting hearing what Barry had to say about the game

 

[TrillaMonsoon]

One of the things I really appreciate about my dad was making me go through the history of the game. Read many books on the Negro Leagues and Satchel Paige is easily my favorite athlete I never got to see play. Legendary stories.

“A lot of times a problem I have is because I’m so up on this level, they think anything I say is like God said something, which doesn’t work that way because I always gotta explain to them that it took 22 years to get to where I got to. So we got 22 years if you want to do what I did.”
