Mariners as a team are under the Mendoza Line.
That's not ideal.

I fully accepted the fact the Pirates won't be there for the next decade.
I knew the Orioles were going to be bad, that theoretically next year is supposed to be their huge improvement year, but I was hoping for some signs of improvement. I have to shake my head at some things. Why does a rebuilding team have a 35 year old closer?

Yeah no clue what the Pirates are doing. They literally only have 3 position players under the age of 27 currently.

How is the farm system? The Orioles always had a terrible farm system. For the first time I can ever remember the Orioles are getting good grades for their farm system now.

Lots of 26+ players on the Orioles too.

Around the middle of the road for ranking the farm system (depending on the site it goes from #8 to #15) with four players in the top 100. Outside of KeBryan Hayes the other 3 are still years away though.

@thedddd, Bucs far exceeded my expectations in those 20 games we discussed. I said no more than 3-17. Bastards actually managed to go 6-14...a whopping .300 winning percentage. not bad by Pirates standards.

Wow, I forgot Al Oliver played for Montreal.

And as a 14 year old I thought it was cool Warren Cromartie’s name was on Rush’ Signals album cover.

Yeah, he was a fine player for the Expos, terrific hitter and excellent defensive 1st baseman.

I think it is another mercy rule night for the Pirates.

As great of a player that he was in Pittsburgh, his best offensive season was in Montreal in his mid 30’s!

Must be nice to field an actual MLB team.

Is this a modern MLB record?

I'm amazed they got 1 run.
