Matt Olson has now played in 896 consecutive games, passing Stan Musial for sole possession of 8th place on Major League Baseball’s all-time consecutive games played list!

One time, Don Sutton said he had only made four pitches that disappointed him in a particularly great start. I've been thinking about that quote for a long time, so: pebblehunting.substack.com/p/this-could...

This Could Be A Miz Take

How many deliveries disappoint?

Before tonight Freddy Peralta, in his career, had allowed the fourth-lowest batting average in live ball history. After one game as a Ray, he's now ninth.

And yet not a single team tried to trade for them at the deadline. This is what's known as a market inefficiency.

Guys at basketball (casual baseball fans) asked me why teams are all hitting Ohtani on purpose. Their algo seems to keep feeding them the same one Robert Suárez video from 2025, but to them it looks like a constant stream of fresh conflict. Interesting.

My theory is that they forgot to tell ownership that they failed to re-sign Jayson Werth, and they've been running a dupe campaign ever since

i just noticed the other day that the 2025 Phillies' BB-Ref page was set up to make you realize Matt Strahm was a vessel for all the leftover DNA that didn't go into Brandon Marsh. I would have kept it to myself if he'd just spiked the 0-2 slider. Oh, well.

"To punch out 12 of 13, that's pretty impressive," Brewers manager Pat Murphy said after the win. "There's nothing more impressive than that, I don't think.

Jacob Misiorowski dismisses the notion that a pitcher can enter a zone in which his powers mystically reach a supreme level.

You wanna see the most beautiful thing I've ever filmed? This bag was just dancing. With me. Like a little kid begging me to play with it.

Miz in a probably-limited-pitch start is hilarious. Six batters, six Ks, seven FBs over 104 and none under 102.
