2024 MLB Thread; RIP Willie Mays & Pete Rose. Dodgers win #8!

And the Rangers my God.
Their record over the last 10games has been between 1-9 and 3-7 for the last several weeks.
3rd now, they were 6games up not very long ago.

Man Rangers suck now. I remember when Chapman defected but now it’s time to exit the league.

Hit a pretty rough patch in the season and got guys coming out of the woodwork like their teams aren’t bottom 5-10 teams in the league

Really funny considering the Rangers have been a season or two ahead of schedule all year

Braves refuse to lose. Rangers refuse to win

Now THAT is the Chapman I know.

By 1 game. It's not that dramatic.

True. Still notable that they had led the division since April 29 and at some point in June had a 6 game lead. It'll be a fun September for sure.

On the Rangers, I thought Leiter was a sure thing when they drafted him in ‘21. Seattle drafted Bryce Miller and Bryan Woo in the later rounds of the same draft and they’ve been key for Seattle this year…

About time

They've been down their best two starting pitchers and some rotation of 2-3 starting position players for effectively three months now.

It's not really all that surprising.

Wonder where the Mets will play him

Gives me a reason to tune in at least

2B/LF mostly
SS whenever Lindor needs a break

He got reps at 3B too

Please forgive the shade towards your Rangers.
With that being said they still couldn’t hit water right now if they fell off a moving boat.

Get it together Rangers.

Possible NLCS preview the next 4 days. Both red hot. Both got their MVPs. Gonna be a fun one

ATL could get knocked off by PHILLIES yet again.
They’re built to do it.

 

[steeeeeeven]

This playoff race got the excitement back way earlier than normal lol

I prefer this version of the “2nd deadline” than the old one. I think we’ll see more of these types of waivers/claims involving impending free agents that you don’t want to re-sign anyway.

Braves pitching is built for a first round exit. Phillies or Dodgers are most likely coming out of the National League. Brewers are a possibility too.

 

[HIM]

Would have preferred to try to keep Lopez/Moor out of all those guys. Probably too late for the Guardians to make the postseason but if they get the good version of Giolito, they might could make a run. Moore was great for us and Lopez throws 103mph. Always worth a flyer.

Darius Vines had a great debut yesterday. Strider, Fried, Elder, and Morton can hold their own too.

 

[DsLee]

Yeah I think ATL’s rotation is more than good enough as long as they keep out-raking folks…
