It's been a particularly ugly 6 game stretch, but also, you're right. It's June and they're still in first (or maybe tied).
Bill Clinton slept with an intern. A consenting adult and he got impeached and nearly disbarred as a result. Donald Trump went to parties showcasing underaged women brought in as basically prostitutes, and he says it's nothing.

It's nice to have that losing streak over. Solid win tonight.

And in the minors, Jonah Tong pitched a gem. He looks too good for AA.

They've won just 2 of their last 12 (I think), but they looked good tonight. The pen, outside of the new guy Pintaro, looked good. 2 homers by Soto and a homer by Mauricio, who deserves a look. Not bad.

They just need a few more games like tonight. Also, Montas wasn't bad last night.

This is just so bad. Another pitcher on the IL... This team isn't winning anything this year without major deadline deals.

Canning might be out for the year, but I haven't heard an official announcement yet. Injuries happen in baseball. Hopefully the depth and maybe a trade deadline deal will be sufficient.

It's a long season and it's still early.

Major moves need to be made. The lineup is top heavy and the pitching is in shambles. Time to trade some of the youth.

He's definitely out for the year. Just had the surgery to repair the Achilles a few days ago. At this point it's unknown if he'll be ready for spring training next season.

Yup.

It's a long season, but it feels like they went from the best team in the league to one of the worst, at least, the worst over the last 15 games or so. Yikes.

I remember you thought they should sign him. I listened to the stat nerds at Amazin Ave who said he was due for a decline based on closer examination of his stuff and how hard he was hit.

I guess nerds don't know everything.

He pitched well tonight. Those three bleeders in the 6th hurt him.

Nice to take a series. But who starts tomorrow? My buddy told me that Blackburn is hurt now too.

I'd only be guessing. Butto? Waddel? Hagenmen? Hamel, if they do a 40 man move, or maybe McLean if they want to be bold and start his clock early.

At least we're going up against Stroman tomorrow. He's been awful this year.
