I have now watched 3 no nos in my life. One was Clay Buchholz against the Orioles for the Red Sox. The other two were Houston throwing a combined no no against the Yankees.

Hopefully I never watch one of these live again.

I have watched Don Larsen, David Cone, and David Wells games on tape.

I was at Cone's perfect game. It was Yogi Berra day and Yogi's first trip to the Stadium in 20 years after George fired him. Don Larsen threw the first pitch to Yogi that day.

BROCKTON, Mass. -- As outfielder Pedro Martinez Jr., first baseman Manny Ramirez Jr., third baseman D'Angelo Ortiz, outfielder Jaden Sheffield and pitcher Kade Foulke chat in the batting cages, general manager Tom Tracey shoos away fans loitering outside Campanelli Stadium, hoping to get a glimpse of the players known collectively as "The Sons."

Want to feel old? Your favorite 2004 Red Sox player's son is playing for the Brockton Rox this summer

The Red Sox-Yankees rivalry goes next-gen as Jaden Sheffield, Manny Ramirez Jr., Pedro Martinez Jr., D'Angelo Ortiz and Kade Foulke join forces.

Well we already had Robles haha

But yeah, sadly both would be an improvement. Majorly when you look at FIP.

Huge game from Franchy last night, going 4-5 with a double and two stolen bases. The overall numbers aren't quite impressive (.252/.331/.413, 109 wRC+), but they're still leaps and bounds better than last year and his Statcast numbers suggest he's still been very unlucky.

Franchy's percentile rankings:

xWOBA: 89%
xBA: 87%
xSLG: 87%
xISO: 81%
xOBP: 87%
Barrel%: 78%
EV: 87%
Max Exit Velocity: 99%
HardHit: 94%

Still K's, but he's gone from having a K% above 35% every year to 25.8% this year, which is far more manageable.
