Cubs walk off again. Too bad they're peaking early too.

Hell ya we are! See, we did not want to peak too early so we decided to lose a bunch of games. In about 2 weeks we will win 14 games in a row to get the second wild card spot.

Silly Cubs don't understand that winning games at this point in the season is a dumb thing to do.

Glad I kept the prices up on my tix for September. Time to make some money. Can probably get 5 hundo a seat for a wild card one-off game if they can overtake the Pirates.

I'm just waiting for the Padres to start peaking. They've played it conservatively all year. They're gonna peak at the right time, any minute now.

Matt Kemp is gonna peak the shit out of September

James Shields will use his Cy Young peak cheat code in September also. I think they've known the right time to win all along.

Dro fact of the day

The only two Japanese pitchers to throw no hitters in mlb did it vs the Orioles.

Yankees are in freefall.

Congrats, Blue Jays on taking first place. You've earned it.

The Yankees need Shields and Kimbrel. Or maybe Tyson Ross and Kimbrel. We'll happily take Aaron Judge and Greg Bird off your hands.

Sonny Gray scratched for today against the Jays!!!! Wooo, Ryan Goins with a 3 run blast up 4-0!

11 in a row!

<font color=goldenrod>Mets open up a 4 game lead in the division after a 4 game sweep of the Rockies. Love it.

Tough series vs. the Bucs coming up</font>

Yanks vs Jays this weekend. Price getting the start tomorrow.

Cubs and Jays would be a great World Series. Too bad they peaked already.

Poor Vito doesn't get the Mets are burning their peak factor too early while the Nationals wait in the wings.

<font color=goldenrod>If September 2007 has taught me anything, it's to not let my guard down until the final out to clinch the division is recorded.</font>

Watch the World Series be something fucking lame like LA Angels vs Cardinals

<font color=goldenrod>Would certainly fit the pattern.

2010: Giants
2011: Cardinals
2012: Giants
2013: Cardinals
2014: Giants

I've fully braced myself for one of those two teams making it again despite there being so many more interesting choices.</font>

I wouldn't mind the Angels in the BIG DANCE.

Mike Trout #1

For sure, love Trout

just seems like of all the "cool stories" in the AL this year that LA would just kinda be a meh choice. Though I would take LAA over KC 205672680724807x over. Fuck KC.

<font color=goldenrod>My World Series prediction before the year was Angels/Dodgers so that's still in play. Even though it would make the East Coast bias media weep themselves to sleep.</font>

Going to Jays vs Yanks tonight with Price pitching. Should be a RAGER.

Red Sox manager John Farrell diagnosed with stage 1 lymphoma. Taking medical leave to start chemo.

Ugh. Sucks. I take every chance I get to talk shit about the Red Fux. But cancer, no way.

Beat it, John.

I fucking hate cancer

That's awesome! I"m going to Jays vs Tigers in two weeks.

Lol Yankees getting shut out by the Jays again.

BOOP

What a game and a great Tulo at-bat to end it #startagain

Price shouldn't have even started the 7th

WHAT?! YANKS BEAT THE JAYS?! ENDED THE STEAK?!

WHAT'S NEXT, TRUMP'S GONNA BE PRESIDENT!?!?!?!?!

Matt Kemp becomes the first Padres player to hit for the cycle. A nice little gem of a night on what's been a shit bag season for both Kemp and the team.

EAT
SLEEP
BREAK
THE STREAK

Cubs rule Jays drool

What the hell got into the Red Sox

Team finally remembered they were built to score a lot of runs. Bullpen giving up 8 runs right at the end also proving what the biggest fear was going into the season.

<font color=goldenrod>Man, fuck Bob Davidson. Blatant strike 3 looking to McCutchen gets called ball 4 instead. Niese serves up a 2-run bomb to Aramis Ramirez on the next pitch. And then as Niese, understandably pissed off walks off the field angry...Davidson basically follows him to the dugout hoping for a confrontation.

Hate umps that actively look to throw someone out.</font>

2 Homers for Chris Davis, 9 in the last 2 weeks and 34 on the year.

Orioles are now .5 gb of the Angels for the 2nd Wild Card

<font color=goldenrod>Mets drop their second extra-inning game in a row to the Pirates.

Mets are 0-12 vs. the Cubs and Pirates this year. Gonna loom large if the Mets don't win the division and have no Wild Card to fall back on.</font>

4 innings and 9 strike outs for Chris Sale so far.
