For everybody stashing Robbie Snelling, I hate to inform you that Braxton Garrett is on the 40-man roster and just gave up 1 ER in 8 hitless innings in AAA. He now has a 0.77 ERA in 23.1 IP w 23 Ks this year

Have to wonder if the baseball is any different this year. MLB offenses are averaging 3.76 walks per game coming into today. That’s the most per game since 1950. It’s early but something to monitor

It may be too early to pay much attention to bat speed and Statcast data, but what about hitters who made clear changes to their stance and their swing path? I looked at a few of those hitters who may actually be in for a breakout season @rotoworld-bb.bsky.social www.nbcsports.com/mlb/news/col...

Colt Keith, Cam Smith, and hitters who could break out due to swing or approach changes

So on Tuesday alone we had: - Bam’s ridiculous 83 point game where they fouled up 30 to get him shots - Team USA thinking they clinched a bracket spot when they didn’t - Ravens backing out of a trade to immediately sign another DE Fun day for sports

People keep saying “I don’t like Trevor Story at his price” or “Can he stay healthy two years in a row?” But Story’s injuries are a fractured wrist from a HBP, Tommy John surgery, and a dislocated shoulder from a diving play. Those are not recurring injuries for a hitter

WILD sequence in this Australia-Korea game. Australia needs one run to advance by run differential. Pinch runner falls on a sac bunt & the pitcher doesn’t see. Next batter is Travis Bazzana, who rips an RBI single. Now Australia just needs to put up a zero in Top 9 to advance
