First Vlad Junior, now Fernando Tatis, Jr., has dropped out of the Home Run Derby; in this case he's citing nagging shoulder issues and says he needs the rest.

Ohtani has a decent chance of winning that.

:lol:
 
Jacob deGrom has a 0.69 ERA (nice). It's legitimately possible that we might be witnessing the greatest season ever by a pitcher.
 
What's the point of a five-day suspension for a starting pitcher? Especially when it's for intentionally hitting a batter?

I specifically refer to Alek Manoah's beaning of Maikel Franco. All that suspension does is push back his next start by one day. It's less than a slap on the wrist.

It should be a five-GAME suspension, otherwise what's the point? What a fucking joke.

Pitcher suspensions have been a fucking joke ever since Selig was named acting commissioner to replace Fay Vincent.
 
God, the Cubs are making me guzzle so much Maalox that I should buy stock in Novartis.

April: Cubs already committed to selling at the trade deadline.
May: Maybe the Cubs don't suck?
June: The Cubs are good? Let's buy at the trade deadline.
July: Oh shit, they suck again, sell! Sell! Sell!
 
German Marquez pitched a one-hitter (three outs away from the no-hitter)...at Coors Field.

Has any pitcher thrown a no-hitter there?

Edit: Wikipedia isn't much help. It lists four no-hitters involving the Rockies but it doesn't list where the games took place.

Edit 2: Strike that. The Nomo game was at Coors Field.

I think management always assumed they would be selling in July, but the players had other ideas for a while.
 
Trevor Bauer in trouble?

https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2021/06/trevor-bauer-reportedly-under-investigation-for-assault.html

Bauer’s agent Jon Fetterolf released a statement denying the allegations (relayed by Jeff Passan of ESPN). Fetterolf claims the alleged assault was the result of a pair of consensual rough sexual encounters. TMZ reports that Bauer is cooperating with authorities and that the case is likely to be sent to the Los Angeles County District Attorney to determine whether charges are warranted.
 
Finally an end to the Cubs debacle. Up 7-0 after a half inning, they lose 15-7.

Arrieta is definitely washed up and the bullpen is looking like utter shit now.
