Didn't realize the Reds were playing some nice baseball lately....I would not mind at all if they got that 2nd wildcard instead of the Padres.  Cardinals also surging interestingly. 

Boy, it would be something if the Padres missed the playoffs….

  1. 39 New York Mets
  2. 38 Arizona Diamondbacks
  3. 37 Toronto Blue Jays & Chicago Cubs
  4. 36 Tampa Bay Rays & Milwaukee Brewers

Haven't heard much about the greatness of the Padres recently from Caufield!

Starters injured:

Clevinger, Morejon, Paddack, Darvish, Lamet, Arrieta (well, that doesn’t matter so much)

They would have been better off this season just holding onto Quantrill.

On fumes right now.  Gore hasn’t progressed as expected and Snell the rare example of a pitcher getting worse in the NL.

Weathers got hurt as well and not the same pitcher since return, plus running into new territory with IP.

Nola 18 up 18 down vs Padres. 63 pitches.

Would be sad or cool if his brother broke it up.

Went down to the final batter in the 9th (Cronenworth), Girardi just pushed him too hard...

 

The way things have worked out with the Padres this year, can easily make the argument they would have been better off holding onto Quantrill and Patino.  Hindsight of course being 20/20.

Gettin' Miggy with it. 

138 HRs in five seasons with the Marilins

362 HRs in his fourteenth season with the Tigers.

 

Miggy, among other accomplishments, won the Batting Title 4 times.  Stud.  Hawk loved him.  He was fun to watch.  I still remember his rookie year at Miami in World Series playing right field.  He looked like he was 12.  But he could hit, and he made it look easy.

I don't follow the NBA, but saw the video of Giannis buying 50 chicken nuggets after winning the championship. He seems like a cool guy.

He just became the first new part owner of the Brewers since Selig's 2005 sale to Attanasio.

the two-time NBA MVP said he wanted to team up with the Brewers to show his support to the city of Milwaukee.

''Milwaukee made me who I am today,'' said Antetokounmpo, who signed a supermax contract extension with the Bucks in December. ''It made me a better person. This is basically my home. I've become a father here. I've become a leader here. I've become a champion here, and I want to be involved. I want to be involved in the community as much as possible. I know Milwaukee invested a lot in me, and I want to invest a lot of me back into the city of Milwaukee.''
