Bautista outplays his contract by more than $70 million over the next four seasons (2013-2016).

Ray has recovered after a bad start to the year, and is a bit of a different pitcher this year than last: fewer strikeouts, a shade more walks, but also doing a much better job of limiting hard contact. Mostly because the Mariners have him throwing his sinker much more than in 2021...it isn't a particularly effective pitch on its own, but seems to keep people off the high four-seamer.

Would it be better to have the Dome open?

It still doesn't make sense to me that MLB gets to decide whether or not that the dome can be opened.

Wow!

I'm pretty despondent after yesterday but this is baseball where two game winning streaks are as common as wet water.

This Rays/Cleveland game might be the most offensively futile spectacle I've ever witnessed. Through 11 innings of this game and 20 IP in this series as a whole, the two teams are hitting a combined .132/.176/.178.

Kelenic starting over Dylan Moore simply because he's left-handed is big Charlie Montoyo energy.
