So you don't think he should be the MVP because of something having nothing to do with baseball?

Albert Belle lost out on the MVP to Mo Vaughn for non-baseball stuff in 1995

Okay now I'm just sad about this whole Twins situation. Like forreal. Please stop it.

Leading the league in actual attendance is like leading RP in wins... #'s are meant to be put in context

 

[Teagz]

JD Martinez is a gawd

So is Mike Napoli.

Sale is being wasted and it's sad. So filthy. I'm surprised the Tigers have stayed competitive this long, didn't think they had the pitching

 

[Mexi]

Coors field
Still the worst

They probably don't have the juice to make it all the way to the playoffs, but they are a pretty fun team to watch.
 
 
If they're gonna make a move, August is the month to do it. Nineteen games at home, where they've been lights out since mid-May.

I agree it's sad he's not getting better support offensively.  The White Sox need just 4 runs a game.  That's it.  And their awful offense can't even get them that.  It's also the reason why the team doesn't start a rebuild by dealing their pitchers for specs.  Just an average offense and the White Sox are right there with any team in baseball.  Sad really.

To play in? Or you talking the actual stadium? I've always wanted to go there

I honestly don't understand how the Sox offense struggles. Seems to me guys just underachieve year after year. On paper it should be pretty solid. It's probably time to dump Ventura and see if they can turn things around before the season ends. That'd give them a better idea of where they stand moving forward.

I am a huge O's fan. It is great to see them competing for another division title this season. Their rotation has looked dismal at times, and I swear if they stick Jimenez out there to start again then I will burn that place to the ground, but Dylan Bundy has looked promising since being labeled a starter. I have never been a huge fan of Gausman, he would be a key trade piece to net us a solid starter yet the O's won't consider involving him in a trade. Our line up is sick from top to bottom mostly raw power.

Somehow, the Indians managed to win a game against the Twins.

if your team played 9 games a year there youd freaking hate it
Worst stadium ever

Wasn't a fan when jays played there earlier this season. Was some of the sloppiest games I've ever watched.

Kershaw moved to 60 day dl. Shame. He has been unreal this season.
