    • When I lived in NYC during the 70's, Scooter Rizzuto was good for the Yankees.

        "Haywood is a convicted felon, isn't he Monte?"

        "Uh, it doesn't really say that here...."

        "Well, he should be!"

        • Harry Doyle is pretty good for the Brewers.

          • Says more about the rest of the division than about us but the KinderGuardians are now tied for 1st place

            • Biebs dealt the moribund Tigers some harsh justice last night.

              The Tribe is looking modestly good for the future. They're trying out some decent young kids in lots of spots. And, for reasons unbeknownst to nearly all, Jose really likes Cleveland and gave them a huge discount to stay. They actually may have a really strong core lineup in a year or two. I doubt they can re-sign Biebs, but the pitching should be ok, too.

              And, as noted, the Central is hot fucking garbage. There's zero way any Central team can beat both the Astros and Yankees and I'm fairly certain they're looking at extremely long odds to even beat one of them in a best of 5. Hell, any of the Central teams is likely to lose the WC to whatever East team they have to play.

              • Yeah they are set up nicely for the future at least...if anything's been consistent over the past nearly-20 years they've developed good pitching so losing Biebs isn't a disaster either. We've lost so many Cy Young winners since 2005 I've lost count. And other than Sabathia I don't think very many of them went on to do very much for their bigger market teams.

                • Tigers owner Chris Ilitch fired GM Al Avila on Wednesday.

                  It was about 2 years later than it should have been. Avila was a nice enough guy, but it was apparent long before this season that his team building skills are not among the better minds in MLB baseball.

                  It'd be nice if Ilitch would make an effort to grab Theo Epstein. If they're serious about contending again, that's the kind of guy they need.

                        • MLB released its schedule for 2023 and a lot of people will probably hate it. They are increasing interleague play by a LOT at the expense of divisional play. Every team will supposedly play at least one series against all the other 29 teams.

                          • I was never a fan of the unbalanced schedule but we will have to see how this plays out.

                              I do.

                              Screw the National League. We'll should only see you in spring training, the All-Star Game and W.S.
                              How about visiting the teams in the other divisions of your league more than once a season?

                                Yeah, I'm more with you. If they were going to reduce the number of divisional games they should have given us more games against AL East and AL West opponents. Instead they're actually cutting back on those a little too. I really don't need or care to see the Padres and Phillies every single year.
