Beltre is 13 away from 3,000 hits. MLB is astonishingly quiet about this

I assume they'll start hyping it when he's within 5. Alternately, baseball will continue to fail to publicize Beltre and his adorable romance with Andrus because they are absolutely terrible at capitalizing on good personalities.

In related news, Albert is 3-3 on the night, which puts him at 2911 for his career.

Back to back jacks for the Royals.

Also KC will probably have three 20 homer guys this year if they don't trade anyone, which seems rare for this dumb team.

Five in the game. Three in an inning. Two by Moose.

This has to be the best power hitting team in franchise history.

I kind of want the Jays to just lose nonstop until the end of the month so that maybe management does something drastic. I can't watch this poo poo anymore. It's not tanking, it's just bad-to-mediocre every single game, which is really boring and frustrating to watch.

Wait was that back to back to back?

3 in the inning at least.

e: oh no, Escobar grounded out in between #2 and 3.

Holy poo poo I wasn't watching but the Royals actually did this today. Merrifield/Bonifacio/Hosmer back to back to back.

Merrifield of all people has two homers today.

It ended a streak of 34 consecutive saves, loving hell Janesn is a monster. :stare:

Also lol the Cardinals gave up Adams for cash considerations and a lottery ticket.

Just a reminder we traded Kimbrel for two guys who are no longer on the team and Matt Wisler.

At the time he was tied with Baltimore's closer with the league lead at 50 saves.


Guess who that closer was?

Do the Cardinals even have good base runners? I thought the TOOTBLAN was their gimmick this year.
