The last place Cincinnati Reds are limping towards the August 3rd trade deadline at just 51-57, still buried in the busy National League Wild Card standings 5.5 games back of the final spot. That comes with the caveat that there are six NL clubs they’d have to jump to earn their way into that spot […]

Dodgers welcome Red Sox for three game set

After taking two of three from the Seattle Mariners, the Los Angeles Dodgers now welcome the surging Boston Red Sox. Boston now sits in third place in the AL East, seven games behind the Tampa Bay Rays. Their record in 57-51, which oddly has been their record after 108 games each of the last four […]

Rockies series preview: Coors Field is not a pitcher’s friend

Building a roster in the thin air of the Rocky Mountains is difficult. The Rockies made the playoffs in just their third year with the “Blake Street Bombers” and they did win the pennant in 2007, falling to the Red Sox.

Who's here and who's not - Make your guesses

I'll go with NEARLY everyone gone. Garcia and Griffin sure. I'll say Williams for scraps. And hell Chaparro and Crews for some random arms because they need random arms and not random bats.  I'll say though when the smoke clears Abrams is still here. I think they are looking to get blown away for CJ.  They won't be because the market doesn't look at an out of position guy having possibly a career year the same way they look at a Sot. Not that THAT'S the benchmark for the de...

Can’t Wait for the 1986 Reunion

By Jay Horwitz Can’t wait to see my old friends on Saturday when we hold the 40th anniversary celebration of our 1986 World Championship team.

Wild Trades, Clay Holmes, and Revisiting 2022

The Connelly Early for Curtis Mead trade between the Boston Red Sox and Washington Nationals is still pretty wild. Mead now has a left wrist fracture, which probably takes him out of the lineup for at least a month and completely ruins the best argument for this trade for Boston, a better short term push […]

Elephant Rumblings: A’s Welcome Tigers To Town

We made it everyone. Happy Friday! The club wrapped up its series with the Boston Red Sox last night with another close loss. It was a competitive series and if some things had gone a bit differently they could have been the ones to take three of four instead of being the ones losing three […]
