In the White Sox record breaking season of 2024 after 50 games they were 15-35.

After 50 games in 2025 the Rockies are 8-42.

In the White Sox record breaking season of 2024 after 50 games they were 15-35.

After 50 games in 2025 the Rockies are 8-42.

Already 23 games behind the Dodgers and we're not even a third of the way into the season.

Though I am concerned that this will give Reinsdorf ideas...

Bobby Bonilla. Still going strong.

Clayton Kershaw becomes just the 20th pitcher in MLB history to record 3,000 strikeouts in his career, and only the second to do it on just one team.

A true Dodgers legend!

Edit: And the Dodgers walk it off against the ChiSox

Adelaide boy Curtis Mead traded to the White Sox.

Good for me to follow an SA boy in the MLB. Sucks for him going to a ratshit organization.

He had an awesome spring training this year, disappointed he couldn't continue with it this year with the Rays. Hopefully he gets a run at Chicago.

Curtis Mead is back in the Major Leagues but this time he’ll be wearing different colours.

Just four days after being traded from the Tampa Bay Rays to the Chicago White Sox, Curtis was called up to the MLB side.

It will be Curtis’ second MLB team this season.

He spent the weekend in Triple-A with the Charlotte Knights.

Mead, 24, went 4-for-7 (.571) with two doubles, three walks, two RBI and two runs scored in his two games with Charlotte since being acquired from Tampa Bay on Thursday in a four-player trade that sent right-handed pitcher Adrian Houser to the Rays.

He is batting .300/.391/.517 (18-for-60) with four doubles, three homers, nine RBI and 12 runs scored over 16 games between Charlotte and Class AAA Durham this season.

Mead will wear uniform No. 29 in Chicago.

Mead is hitting .226/.318/.339 (26-for-115) with three home runs, eight RBI and 14 runs scored in 49 games with Tampa Bay in 2025.

The Adelaide-native is a career .238/.307/.322 (76-320) hitter with five home runs, 20 RBI and 36 runs scored in 111 games over parts of three major-league seasons (2023-25), all with the Rays. He has appeared in 42 games at second base, 40 at third, 20 at first and one at shortstop.

1 at bat. 1 hit. 1 RBI.

Dude.

I love a good opposite field hit

Yankees making a late charge for the 1 seed in the AL with the Blue Jays floundering late. Odds on the Brewers choking in the NL?

[wenchbarwer]

Brewers have held up well so far, rolled the Padres today. AL East is such a wild ride!

Dodgers just unleashed Sasaki from the floundering bullpen after a long lay-off. Mixed 99+mph fastballs in with a 86mph splitter, 3 up, 3 down. Good luck with that noise!

[wenchbarwer]

...and then the next two clowns out of the bullpen have blown yet another lead. Aged like milk

[bertiebeatle1]

Hoping the Brewers don't choke but just can't trust a Wisconsin sporting team to not choke

[wenchbarwer]

Dodgers showing what they're gonna be rolling with come playoff time, Kershaw came out for the ninth

[wenchbarwer]

First games of the wild card series have been run and won

DET 2 - CLE 1
SD 1 - CHC 3
BOS 3 - NYY 1
CIN 5 - LAD 10

Skubal pitches a 14 strikeout gem for the Tiges
Lol, sucked in Padres
Yankees had bases loaded and none out in the last
Dodgers had far too much of a lead for their bullpen to blow it, Hernandez & Ohtani each having 2 HR games

Unfortunately I think it’s going to be a short post season for San Diego

Back to one-all today, they're still alive

Game two results for the WC series:

DET 1 - CLE 6 (series tied 1-1)
SD 3 - CHC 0 (1-1)
BOS 3 - NYY 4 (1-1)
CIN 4 - LAD 8 (LA win series)

Read a stat this morning that teams that win game 1 of the wild card series won the series 18 times out of 20 (now 19 out of 21 with the Dodgers winning).

[wenchbarwer]

Not going to lie, I can't believe this has never been done before

Yankees 4-0 up end of 4th
