"everyone is available except Yamamoto" is Dave for "Yamamoto is closing and I will reverse engineer a way to use him as such"
Dave Roberts in interview room in Toronto said tomorrow's starter is TBD. Glasnow will be available, "everyone is available" except Yamamoto, he said

Playoff hockey OT has the “snort cocaine riding a motorcycle out of a helicopter” quote, but playoff baseball extra innings is like playing Russian Roulette every fifteen seconds

Ryan Ruocco and Jay Bilas are convinced that Victor Wembanyama must be an alien.

Absolutely absurd stuff from Wemby in the Spurs-Mavericks game on ESPN. 🏀👽🎙️ #NBA

Runs allowed by Dodger starting pitchers this series:

Snell - 1
Yamamoto - 3
Glasnow - 3
Ohtani - 2

Sorry hang on that's *hits* allowed by Dodger starting pitchers this series.

Dodger starters also have three home runs this series, which is odd because pitchers no longer hit.

Paul Gervase in Triple-A Durham this season had a 3.12 ERA with 63 strikeouts and 12 walks in his 40 innings. His 31.7-percent K-BB rate is fifth-best among all minor league pitchers with at least 30 innings this season

Yes, the Red Sox salary-dumped a home-grown star for an underwhelming return. But the thing is, he didn't want to DH and refused to play first. If they ever had a home-grown star who played every position he was asked to, there's no way they'd salary-dump *that* guy for an underwhelming return.

Somebody on bluesky said “this is dawning of the age of Casparius” to me recently. So I suggested to Dodger organist Dieter Ruhle that he might play “Aquarius/Let the Sun Shine In” by the Fifth Dimension whenever Casparius pitches and he says he will do it.

Who is the genius who came up with this?
Ben Casparius will pitch in bulk tonight after Ohtani opens

Right folks. Feeling rather down at the moment so bringing back an oldie

Do you think that if Disney started a hotline to report crimes and offered toys as a reward, they would call it Snitches Get Stitches?

Good morning. The Dodgers could find themselves with a long-term problem at third base and a long-term problem at catcher; there could be a single solution in something teams stopped doing 40 years ago. My piece today for @baseballprospectus.com:

For now, this is just a slump, but it's never too early to make a disaster preparedness plan.
