    So I haven't paid a lot of attention to KC this year as I know they've been ravaged by injury, but why is Lorenzo Cain playing RF now that he's healthy?

      Great all around victory by the Jays tonight on a night that they really needed it as Baltimore is cruising and it looks like Boston is going to beat Tampa.

      Oh yeah, Joe Biagini had an AMAZING inning against Trout and Pujols. I can't remember the last rule 5 pick in recent years whose had the kind of impact that he's having with the Jays. He's definitely going to find himself on the postseason roster.

        Both Scott Kazmir and Brett Anderson placed on the DL by the Dodgers tonight. We've tied the Red Sox record with 27 different players on the DL this season. Pfffffft what a year.

            Ya, no doubt he's on postseason roster. I don't think there's a chance he won't be, but let's day for some messed up reason he's not. Does that count as rule 5 pick being returned to his team? Or does he become full Jays property after regular season ends?

            Lol,and Biagini is definitely one of weirder guys in baseball(in a good/comical way). Jays bullpen in general, everyone brings something unique to table on and off the field. Combination of vets, young relievers, locker room stars, ice water veins, funny,overexcited, serious guys among other traits.

              Dan and Buck were talking about this, He would still be Jays property.

                Good news then. This year at least, Biagini,Osuna,Grilli,Benoit have been great for Jays. Only black cloud has been lefty pitching,specifically Cecil(7 losses!). Don't get why they don't go after a lefty reliever. Still got a week to do it and get him on playoff roster.

                If Loup is your #2 option, you need help, literally. Would've been nice if there's a lefty Grilli/Benoit out there

                  Kris Bryant continues to put the ding in dinger. #33 tonight in San Diego. I feel like I make this same post every night, but it's impossible for me to get sick of. Bryant is steady as they come.

                  Bryant is already the Cubs franchise leader for HR in years 1 and 2 combined of a career. He's 10th, I believe, on the all-time list.

                    Good way for the Pirates to end a four game loosing streak.

                      In honor of the 27 men going to the DL, the Dodgers have scored 27 runs in the last two games.

                      Excited to see Rich Hill pitch tonight, hopefully no blister pops up between now and then.

                        Leonys Martin made a throw last night that didn't even hit me until this morning. It was from almost the warning track in center, and he threw a dart all the way home that got there maybe a second after Teixeira. Describing it probably doesn't do the throw justice, a sac fly from that distance shouldn't have been a close play at all, it was a great toss

                          That throw blew my mind, It almost overshadowed the run that scored. Tex, shouldn't have even had to slide on a long sac fly. But rocket arm out there made it way closer, then I ever expected.

                            Sanchez again? Is this real life?
