    In the last "full season" of games, I'm pretty sure Khris Davis leads MLB in just about every power number...

    I wasn't completely serious, he's definitely not the top. Just crazy how hot he's been for being an average player.

    Man I hope Heyward is ok. Gutsiest catch of the season

    Thought BHam's was way better.

    BHam was likely the only CF to catch that ball he caught. It was incredible. I've seen Billy just miss a couple of difficult catches near the wall (balls that will carry you to dangerous plays against the wall if you go all out for)...the wall is a huge factor in completing those plays. The ball Billy caught didn't have the wall factor that Heyward's did, or the other two the Billy didn't quite finish.

    Billy probably catches the ball Heyward did and takes a step and jumps against the wall to brace/protect. I highly doubt Heyward catches the ball Billy did.

    Given their speed and abilities the Heyward catch was better because the wall and the danger of the after catch. The Hamilton catch is underplayed. It was incredible.

    Red Sox offense has been incredible. That team is raking.

    Sox are ridiculous. That offense is just insane. Team to beat in AL IMO, unfortunately.

    I'm skeptical as hell. Oldest player in the league doesn't lead MLB in OPS and wouldn't be surprised if Bradley or others weren't. Feels Bondsian.

    Ah yes, "Drunk Ass Yells At Announcers While His Team Gets Swept". Good times.

    Kershaw is so damn good.

    I don't like taking him out here.

    Obvious mistake by Roberts is obvious

    105 K and only 5 walks on the season. Believe I saw the record ratio is 13/1.

    Rooting for this youngster to make it to the HR derby. Beautiful power I'll call it.

    White Sox acquire James Shields. SD to cover 29 million out of 56 million remaining on his contract.
  • Ironman92
    Everyone have Mark Trumbo as the first to 20 HR?
