Yankees and Royals are apparently like zombies. You need to cut and burn their heads to kill them.

I seem to be having a negative effect on the Nationals and Indians, but not the Cubs. Time to switch up the faves a bit for this coming week

 

[Clayton]

Every single team in the NL is 6-4, 5-5 or 4-6 in their last 10 games. Nobody streaking and that seems really weird this time of year.

The home run rate in MLB currently sits at 1.17, tied with 2000 for the highest of all-time. It was 1.01 in 2015 and 0.86 in 2014. Still far fewer runs scored though (5.14 R/G in 2000 vs. 4.49 in 2016).

That Tigers/Royals series this weekend should be good and could determine which 1 of those 2 stays in playoff contention.

Sox need to call up Kelly.....


I can't believe I just typed that.

But taz needed more time off than his DL stint anyway. Give him one more to get to September
