I gave it a half-hearted try on Friday…but Hill got moved to Thursday (that at least kept me away from Ray’s -21 day vs the Yankees), Greinke’s start against the As got changed to a rehab start in AAA instead, and Kershaw only lasted 1.2 innings. Only Ranger Suarez (and a couple RPs) worked out. It could have been worse, right?

So close and neither of you loaded up SPs for an overage day!
-
I’m sure Reid Detmers is a nice guy and I hope he goes on to have a great career. So I feel a little bad also hoping he out-underperforms yesterdays Jordan Montgomery today. Also SF-LA and TOR-SEA games 163 would be nice.

You also have I think the best SP matchup left: Castillo@PIT. It would be funny (in a sad way, for me) if Castillo does make the difference—just like Hitch told us he would back before the trade deadline. I didn’t buy it at the time—I was sure Trout and DeGrom would be back some time in August, and Acuña would not, so I thought I was just playing for 2nd anyway.

Not all: Young Max had a good night (I can’t complain about that). I watched the first few innings of the Dodgers game, saw Old Max’s disgusted, WTF? look at Caratini’s cheap HR and thought: that’s Charles right now. (Old Max giving up HRs is no surprise but the lack of early Ks was…promising.) Still I’d rather be in first and have more innings left. Good luck the rest of the way.

Getting extremely easy to set my line up these days
-
Last two out on to Waveland ave.
-
O'Neil again, 3 hr in 3 games. he likes Wrigley and or that AAA staff
-
Luis Robert is an exciting guy to watch though , freaky athlete ,almost bo Jackson like
-
True that , I despise cards neutral about white Sox . its a sad state I'm.in
-
It’s a little sad hearing a Cubs fan talk up White Sox and, especially, Cardinals. These mlb rebuilds suck. Don’t despair Brew, 2027 will be here before you know it!

Hey Charles, starting Cole—after his last start—at Boston, that’s taking a chance. I’m sorry that I hope it doesn’t work out!

Does Idaho have hop fields at all ?

Eastern Washington is where hops come from and I am always happy to trade.

John Hook is the guy to trade with , his beers are so dank and fresh like liquid sod

The Furious is so good I sent two

I am most proud that I owe no one on this earth, nor does anyone have to hound me for money for things like entry fees . Like Big Enos Burnett, my word is gold

I'd try the nitro stout first , its an oh my beer https://www.3sheepsbrewing.com/beer/view/cashmere-hammer

Fred, your package has arrived! Thanks! Dustin May’s loss was my gain. I’m really looking forward to the Furious but I’m sure it will all be great. It’s all going into the chiller now to settle down from its long trip.

Hmm....the same gm made 8 prospect nominations between 11:13 and 11:18 cst am, which is lunch hour on east coast. Seeing as he is locked into 3rd , it must be Henry

Hey Brew, I’m wondering who you think are the top 5 guys—because I can think of about 10 who I think of as “obviously top 5 guys” (Soto, Trout, Acuña, Betts, Vlad, Tatis, Harper, TTurner, Devers, J Ramirez…so I don’t even get to Ohtani or Semien or Olson or Freeman or any Ps, and Mullins is out scoring all these guys x Vlad, Harper, Soto, and Semien)? (And okay, I just included Devers to annoy you…and remind you that Henry didn’t just start fleecing you *this* year.)

Cross checking where Trout, Blackman, Riley, and Bregman ended up, I found the following:
1. Traded MIKE TROUT and Aaron Judge for Rafael Devers, Gleybar Torres, Bobby Dalbec, Louis Campusano, and Akil Baddoo (kept Devers, traded Torres, cut Dalbec, cut Baddoo, cut Campusano)
2. Cut CHARLES BLACKMON at $33 (later resigned him at $23)
3. Traded AUSTIN RILEY, Joely Rodriguez, and Luke Weaver for Trey Mancini, Kyle Lewis, and Jose Miranda
4. Kept ALEX BREGMAN

Henry you moved up the rankings this year in my eyes for savy trading, upper tier.
-
It would have been a major coup for you to have aquired 2 of the games top 5 players and 3 of the top 10 contracts and leave me with only one keeper in Riley . Would have put me in the long game saga rebuild again which is horrible. I dont mind a one year tweak retool, but 3 to 4 year rebuild i never wish to go through again. Was humiation enough trading two Rileys for one Mckinstry .
-
The fact that I beat Charles on a dubious trade offer is a feather in my cap.

I was ready to offer more warm bodies to that trade offer. I think it was after Lou Bob looked done for most of the season and before Trout was injured.

If you are bored, and or pretty much locked into your finishing place, its fun to go back to look at trades you rejected this year . Some of the real stinkers fermented and look even worse now . Henry wins dubious honor offering me Trout, Blackman ,Riley, and Bregman for Tatis ,Guerrero , and Robert. Offer was made on May 15th , so I assume it was a next year for this year offer...but still wow. Also that's when Robert tore his hip and no one knew he would come back so soon and hit .350.

I had Aquino the year he went off for 8 weeks like Schwin
-
Hopefully the Cubs can keep this ridiculous game close enough that another Schwindel home run could still matter. Looking like it’ll have to be a slam though.

Speaking of amazing out-of-nowhere seasons, Schwindel homered again today, and now has gone 30 consecutive ABs without striking out. He’s averaging a hilarious 8.5ppg. I don’t know how he’s doing it, but it continues.
