Rain delay #3 in Yankees/Rays game.

Unlike the first 2 this one might last a while.

A rain which should knock out Betances with Brad Miller up as the tying run...

I'm hoping they call the game.

Astros had a shot to get within 1.5 of the Orioles/Tigers, but they couldn't get to Lester (who's been maybe the best pitcher in baseball since the break if you look at the stats) and the Cubs played spoiler for the Wild Card race.

The division races other than the AL East aren't anything epic this year, but the Wild Card races are a doozy.

Cubs magic number =7

Kris Bryant locking up MVP. Such a pleasure.

Watching the AL East, Jays get clown pounded when it matters. Hopefully the Red Sox didnt brand them a failure by inflicting their will upon them. But, imo, the Jays have been playing over their skill set all year. I wouldnt be suprised if the O's and Yanks get hot and over take them.

I dont know the math, but even if the Cubs lost every game for the rest of the season, they would still have the best record in their division. First to 90 wins.

Betances back on the mound.

Betances back on the mound.

He's gonna load the bases lol.

Clearly you don't know math since these two statements are contradictory. The fact that they still have a magic number means the 2nd part is not necessarily true.

So, Rick Porcello and Jon Lester, two of the more high-profile free-agent pitcher signings in the winter of 2014.

Combined 2015 record: 20-28

So far this season: 36-7

1 game behind the Tigers and Orioles. 2 games behind the Red sox.

Need all the wins they can get now. The next two series will be hell.

Which means the Cardinals couldnt lose seven games......

Impressive about Trea. Speaking of 440+, Buxton! http://m.mlb.com/video/topic/135272728/v1153443483/clemin-buxton-blasts-443ft-homer-at-1085-mph

it wouldn't be a Rick Porcello start if the Sox were not scoring 10 runs a game for him.

 

[JWK]

Casilla blows another one

I'm giving credit to anyone who is the first 20 game winner in the bigs.

Why do you post terrible things?

 

[c9777666]

One thing I would like to say about Kris Bryant- considering that the sophomore slump is a real thing and that we've seen a lot of Rookies of Year take a step back the next year, it is impressive what I've seen Bryant do this season

 

[ChiGuySez]

Thank you Houston.

 

[Elvis P]

This post is not referring to Kurtosis. Yeah, this is the worst month of the season to make posts such as that. If you absolutely have to, make them in March.

oh absolutely. he has pitched very well even getting all the runs per game.
20 wins is a hell of a accomplishment.
