MLB 2022 Season Thread

I am surprised by that. There have been been teams that really sucked. How many starts does a pitcher have, 5? There are team that have lost 2/3 of their games in a month.

I’m also surprised. I mean, you’d expect a hopeless bottom feeder like the Bucs to have managed that ignominious feat, but the Red Sox were expected to contend for a playoff spot coming into the season. Talk about a crash and burn. With Boston in last place in AL East, nearly two games behind the Orioles for pity’s sake, I’m guessing there will be a fire sale come Tuesday’s trade deadline.

Red Sox already losing once again. This team is just really really bad. I am not sure what to say anymore.

Well, they can always trade a single A guy and some magic beans for Shohei, I'm pretty sure the Angels would go for that. Honestly, I just don't see him staying around there any longer than he has to; he wants to win and they evidently don't.

He might be given one of the biggest contracts in MLB history though and I am not sure the Red Sox are up to pay for that.

Don't worry, they can ask the Angels to take the hit and they probably will---they love doing that sort of thing. Now that Moreno's real goal is toast, he probably just wants to mess with fans.

Austin Riley just broke the Braves franchise record for most extra base hits in a month set by Hank Aaron by hitting a walk off double to sweep the Diamond Backs

Do they still count beating the D-Backs as a victory in the record books, or do they just score it as a day ending in the letter "y"?

I heard that today’s starter for Boston won, keeping the Red Sox from going this month without a win by a starter.

By the skin of his teeth. He went five innings and gave up 2 runs, but the Sox scored a 5 spot in the bottom of the fifth to put then ahead to qualify Winchowski for the win.

My Phillies completed a four game sweep of the Pirates with an 8-2 whupping today. Alec Bohm ended a hot hitting July with a flourish, going 4 of 5 with a homer while Kyle Schwarber hit his NL leading 33rd dinger and Aaron Nola threw six strong innings. Next up, a trip to Atlanta.

Angels starter Reid Detmers, who pitched a no-hitter against Tampa Bay on May 10, struck out three Texas hitters on nine pitches in the second inning for the 109th immaculate inning in baseball history.

Yeah, if he proves to be that good, the Angels will develop him, and then trade him for a can of shaving cream and a groundskeeper to be named later.

You know, even if I were a team that could meet both Soto's and the Nat's ask for Soto, I probably wouldn't. His numbers this year just don't justify the estimated $500 million he's expected to go for.

The Sox still suck. It is painful watching them.

I am paying attention to the NL and the Mets and Braves. I honestly believe one of those teams is winning it all. Ya the Yankees look like they could take it as well but ill believe that when I see them healthy in the post season.
