86-47
9 games up in the division
.5 games back of the AL lead
On pace for 105 wins.
Looking at the numbers, as of now, we're potentially on pace for:
CY
ROY
2 top-5 MVP vote getters (And who knows how many in top-20)
Up to 5 Silver Sluggers (Brantley, Springer, Bregman, Altuve, Gurriel) - Although Altuve and Gurriel have tough competition.
Yarbrough vs. Cole
Let's see if the offense can stay hot against another very good pitcher. Yarbrough is another very quality young pitcher (semi-young) that has gone under the radar. In his first two seasons he is already 27-9 with a 3.65 ERA (118 ERA+). He doesn't strike out a ton but he has done an excellent job limiting baserunners with a WHIP under .900 and a low HR rate. He has only allowed 2 ERs in his last 24 IP.

Outside of a 2-game series with the Brewers and a 4-game series with Oakland, all the rest of our games are against sub-.500 teams.

What a horrible story. Prayers for Blake. What sometimes we as fans forget, these MLB players have a life outside of Baseball. |

Crazy world we live in. Millennials are a threat to all of us. Did you see the article where Ortiz is trying to hire Boston LEO's to investigate his shooting in the DR? How's that for a resounding endorsement of law enforcement in that hell hole? |

How's that for a resounding endorsement of law enforcement in that hell hole? I would never go on any vacation to any of those islands. If anyone is planning to go I would advise don't take any drinks out of the hotel room mini bar. |

Wonder who will be sitting more often than not once Tucker is up on Monday? Probably a combination of Reddick/Marisnick.
