Alex Cobb just took a heater off the pitching elbow.

Pitchers hitting is so exceptionally stupid.

Tigers broadcast team treated Joba Chamberlain's at bat in the 8th inning today as some sort of humorous expedition in a two run game. He struck out, laughs were had by everyone.

Stark was on 97.5 and stated they've told teams they would pay most of his remaining salary and no one wants him. Yeah, good times.

 

[Michael Brown]

Soria apparently traded to Tigers

4.5 inning games are a joke.

Especially with both teams in town tomorrow.

I think we've humored Jim Johnson long enough.

Watch "The Battered Bastards of Baseball" ASAP.

Even more fun if you don't know any of the backstory. Just do it.

DFA'ed.

Never liked that trade from the beginning. N

They gave up nothing of value. Jemile Weeks has played three games for the Orioles and the PTBNL was a 25 year old minor league catcher.

It obviously didn't work out but I think it was worth a shot. It didn't have any significant impact on the A's bullpen and redistributed $10M of Lew Wolff's wealth

 

[East Coast Bias]

Mariners trade for Morales.

 

[Raider Nation]

They really gave up on Nuno way too fast, esp for an OK-ish rental.

Are you new to the Yankees?

It's like you guys don't even know where the Yankees play. Nuno has given up 15 HRs this year. 13 of them came at Yankee Stadium.

Are you new to Brandon McCarthy?

Looking like a genius trade for the pinstripes so far.

A dominant bullpen and some very good luck with Chris Young can do a lot for a team.

Amazing that this offense is on a current playoff team.

Why would anybody want Kendrys Morales

 

[Eephus]

Why would anybody want Kendrys Morales

Because they hate Jesus Montero

twins gotta be sending some cash, right?

Why would anybody want Kendrys Morales

This is like when the Twins traded D. Young to the tigers, a sucker born every minute

Twins have like 110 wins since that trade, maybe he was the glue. Think Lester Oliveros will win 20 games this year?

McCarthy was mediocre against the Indians in his first start away and pitched well at home against two teams with AAA lineups. I wouldn't define that as "genius" just yet.

 

[Good Posting Judge]

Yeah, I kinda wanna see what Vidal Nuno is doing in 2018 before I hop on to my Jump to Conclusions Mat.

Come on Ingines, it's Danny ####### Duffy.

I think San Diego has scored more runs in this 6th inning, than they've scored in July. All on singles too, a clinic.

Speaking of good throws, Chuck Knoblauch was arrested for assaulting his wife. He looks...bloated

Surprised he didn't double-clutch and then sail a fist over her head.

This has to be for Jeter, right?

I mean it makes sense on some level, I guess. Playoffs are a crapshoot, might as well roll the dice.

This makes sense. Kennedy has been dominant this year and really has no business finishing out the year for one of the teams buried in the standings already. Clarkin is forever away, but those seem like 2 good prospects and they'll have to be considering Kennedy is a no-brainer qualifying offer after this year which would net the Padres a 1st rounder just holding him.

From a fantasy perspective, this is not where I would want Kennedy to go

[Doctor Detroit]

Who's going to take Ryan Howard if the Phillies are going to eat his salary? I guess the Mariners could use another 1B/DH type.

 

[Master of Past and Present]

Felix has 13 straight games of at least 7 innings and 2 runs or less.

But over the last 9 games of that stretch he has 3 wins, 5 no decisions, and a loss.
