Would love to see Dodgers pass on this year’s big free agents and pursue Arenado next offseason. NA will be 29 for the 2020 szn (under the magic age of 30) and has produced at a 291/346/539/886 clip over 6 szns. 37+ HRs & 110RBI last 4 yrs eclipsing 130RBI last 3/4 szns

fwiw, Manny Machado has started following YES Network, the Yankees' station, on instagram. could be a sign. or could be nothing.

Miller is rated as one of the top 5 umpires who call pitches outside of the strike zone, strikes.

Under the old rules, Contreras probably wouldn't have made an athletic play. He may have been bulldozed like this: piped.video/watch?v=v9DU9Il-…

That was a terrible challenge by Girardi. Bird was dead to rights, even on the first look of the replay. Joe needs to pick his spots better.

3 outfielders in right field? Bold move Cotton. Good, light read showing how analytics are becoming even more key to @MLB teams' game plans.

I think we can agree Porcello will not be repeating as the Cy Young. His ERA sits at 4.45 bringing a 0.3 WAR with it. Last year it was 5.1
Chris Sale gave up 3 ER on 3 solo shots in loss to the Yanks. NY takes 3 of 4 in last regular season series and closes the gap to 3.5 games.
(2/3) Kershaw: 1.95 ERA 16-2 147 IP .862 WHIP 4.7 WAR (4th) 175K = 10.7 K/9IP (2nd) 6.3 H/9IP (2nd) 7.3 K/BB (1st) 214 ERA+ (1st) 1 CG
(1/3) Scherzer: 2.19 ERA 13-5 172 IP .853 WHIP (1st) 6.8 WAR (1st) 232K = 12K/9IP (1st) 5.4 H/9IP (1st) 5.4 K/BB (3rd) 200 ERA+ (2nd) 2 CG
Timely hitting has been @Dodgers strength this year, but a lack of it lately is causing the disconnect in the stats previously mentioned.
Since Aug 23, @Dodgers have left 112 on base and are in their worst streak of the year at 3-8 while only having a -14 RD in those 11 games.
Last 10 games the Royals are 3-7 with a (-45) run differential. They have dropped from a 2.5 game lead in the 2nd WC spot to 3.5 back.
Offensive Runs Created: 1. Blackmon 137 2. Votto - 131 3. Goldshmidt - 127 4. Stanton - 123 5. Altuve - 119
Dodgers down 7-6 to the DBacks with 2 out in the 9th. All three of the called strikes on Granderson should have been balls.
