MLB Update:

• Goldy’s proved to be quite a jewel for the Redbirds, who continue to run roughshod over their competition in the NL East. It also helps that Wainwright’s fancy curve is dancing just right. #Brewers #Cardinals
• Cubs overjoyed to capitalize on the many faults of one Steven Brault, who is tagged and battered like few others in a nightmarish stint in that house of Pittsburgh horrors that is Wrigley. #Pirates #Cubs
• Oakland roughs up the Rangers behind the ultra athletic Khris Davis. #Athletics #Rangers

MLB Update:

• A’s continue to show they aren’t afraid of anyone, least of all the Astros. Watch out for this team in the playoffs; they’ve got just enough of everything, and that’s scary. #Athletics #Astros
• Nationals push back against the hard hitting Twins with their big meal ticket, the USS Strasburg, who steams ahead for his 17th win. #Naitonals #Twins
• After everything they’ve been through the resilient Mets whack the D-backs and find themselves smack dab in the middle of the playoff pack. #Mets #Diamondbacks
• More misery for the listless Red Sox, who are really starting to look like one of those out-of-the-October money teams mailing it in in September. #RedSox #BlueJays

MLB Update:

• Yankees blank the Red Sox behind the immortal James Paxton, and Boston’s playoff hopes fade into oblivion … I don’t care how many games we have left with Tampa Bay. And by the way, good riddance for Dumbrowski. #RedSox #Yankees
• Pirates put on their rally caps in the ninth inning … how often does that happen? Maybe they can loan some of this offensive mojo to the comatose Steelers… #Pirates #Giants
• Astros serve notice that their offense is just as potent as the Yankees’ by proceeding to set fire to Mike Fiers’ gaudy resume for 2019. This was one helluva a whupping … one that the A’s won’t soon forget, even if they happen to draw the wild card. #Athletics #Astros
• Cubs bulk up with some man-sized run production in Man Diego, with new guy Nico leading the way. #Cubs #Padres

MLB Update:

• Yes, the Mets’ bullpen is now undoubtedly the laughing stock of the league, and you can thank its titular head, Mickey Callaway, for giving us this non-stop comedic relief. Great choice to pull your best chance to get those last three outs (no a six-run lead in the bottom of the ninth is not safe), and then kudos for picking your nose while someone named “Sewald” gives up a near handful of hits … forcing you to bring in Doomsday Diaz for the final touches. If you’re a fan of the Amazins, this was absolutely hideous; if you’re a fan of anyone else, this was hilarious and priceless. #Mets #Nationals
• Pirate ship sinks to a new low as the Bucs give it up to the muddling Marlins with 2 outs in the ninth. Just when we thought there might be something left in this horrible second half to salvage … #Marlins #Pirates
• Chisox play the role of Scrooge to perfection by throwing rancid milk on Cookie’s homecoming party, and the once comfy Indians are lately retching. #WhiteSox #Indians
• Twins race to a big lead when Nelson goes into Cruz control mode, and Sano contributes to Minnesota’s home run insanity. #Twins #RedSox
• No new news here as Greinke leaves Miller Park cranky. #Astros #Brewers
• Inexplicably, Tampa Bay terminates its win streak with a loss to the moribund O’s; blame it on Rio. #Orioles #Rays

MLB Update:

• Jekyll and mostly Hyde Pirates continue to look like world beaters for a series, colonizing CO with a sweep of the finale; as for the Rockies, their recent collapse must be a bitter disappointment for a fan base that expected so much more after last year’s accomplishments. #Pirates #Rockies
• Poor Mets tap their farm team for a fireman and get burned badly in the 8th. #Mets #Phillies
• Boston does what it has to do and takes its series with the Angels. Have the Red Sox finally gotten serious about their wild card contender responsibilities? The hitting is there (like it’s been there all season), and the bullpen is starting to look solid. #RedSox #Angels
• Just when you thought they might be out of the picture, the Brewers get cooking … taking advantage of that predictably unreliable closer Kimbrel. Yelich seems to be heating up, and things are tightening again in the NL Central. #Brewers #Cubs
• Indians continue their tailspin … however temporary, despite the emotional return of Carrasco. They’ve not lost 3 in a row, and could be creating a wild card opening for none other than the Boston Red Sox. #Indians #Rays
• A’s let another win fall by the wayside with some sketchy relief pitching; this could be a blown opportunity for a series win they’ll seriously regret, come late Sept. #Athletics #Yankees

MLB Update:

• Pirates batters continue to hit their peak in the Rockies, treating CO fans to a very entertaining showing of Chi Chi bang bang with a huge 1st inning explosion. #Pirates #Rockies
• A’s build a bridge Profar to the playoffs, getting a huge game from Jurickson and holding on for a narrow victory over everyone’s object of ridicule, the Royals. #Athletics #Royals
• Manic/depressive Mets are really in the doldrums, playing like total mutts, while the creepy Cubbies have awoken once again, with exciting dreams of being best in their divisional show. #Cubs #Mets
• Tampa’s clearly overjoyed when Astro pitching gets hit with some double trouble from Choi. #Rays #Astros

MLB Update:

• Bosox set their sights on Tampa Bay by reducing the Rockies to rubble; JBJ hits the ball a very long way, and the visitors get a surprisingly strong pitching performance from that Porcello fellow. #RedSox #Rockies
• Astros pull the welcome mat out from under Morton’s toes, as floundering Rays can’t make the grade at Minute Maid. #Rays #Astros
• Cards lean on Molina and some serious dexterity from Dexter in center to knock off the stewing Brewers at Miller. #Cardinals #Brewers
• Phillie fan had no room for niceties, after watching Rhys flail at the plate and at first base. #Pirates #Phillies
• At least for one beautiful evening, the Birds pretend that they are the real beasts of the Beltway. #Orioles #Nationals
