Sitting here watching the Home Run Derby really got me thinking, where are the All-Star Jerseys? The ASG jerseys are ALL the talk when they get released. Everyone shits on them. They’re never good.

MLB Needs to Change Their Criteria for ASG Votes
I saw this tweet the other day and honestly, it made me sick. https://twitter.com/brwalkoff/status/1541493152443498497?s=21&t=_KBjHufioDNPiE2jb56yFA The fact that Tatis is even on the ballot is a disgrace. Don’t get me wrong, Nando is one of the faces of the league at this point in his career, especially with our younger generation of fans. The guy is … Continue reading MLB Needs to Change Their Criteria for ASG Votes

Josh Harrison Was Plunked Last Night… in the BACK ELBOW?
In the midst of the O’s shutting out a White Sox team that’s currently sitting 4.5 games out of first place in the central, Josh Harrison might have had one of the strangest and unlucky HBP situations ever.

I don’t care if it’s layered with grass or turf, well-manicured or full of geese poop, in the middle of a city with a warehouse as a left-field wall (shoutout to Carteret, NJ), or with a skyline of the … Continue reading This Might Be the Most Beautiful Baseball View I Have Ever Seen.
