This is crazy:
Since the Jays got swept by Texas (0-4), 10 of the 13 games important games went their:

Mariners got swept by Dodgers (0-3)
Astros lost the series to KC (1-2)
Texas got swept by Cleveland (0-3)
Rays split vs Orioles (2-2)

What a rollercoaster ride 😅

Not sure how to get this data but I’m curious to know how many players have grown beards after leaving the Yankees

Matt Olson currently leads the league in home runs and RBIs

He is also top 20 in ERA and hits.

He is NOT in the top 3 odds for NL MVP, according to DraftKings, FanDuel or Bet 365.

Such a crazy MLB season that a guy leading 2 stats and the only player with 50+ HRs is not a top 3 MVP candidate

🤯🤯

Future is bright in Seattle 🔱

In honor of the football season:

In 17 years and and 2,320 targets, Larry Fitzgerald has 29 drops. Yup.

He also has 41 tackles in his career, making it 1.4x likelier that you get tackled by Larry Fitzgerald than him dropping a pass.

Legendary.

Welp, the jays were in the playoffs for approximately 18 hours

🥲

At least Davis Schneider got his 7th home run in 20 games

Jose Altuve has 3 HRs in 3 ABs today… 🤯

He’s homered in 5/6 of his last ABs (and counting 🤞)

Ronald Acuña just became the first player in MLB HISTORY to have 30 Home Runs and 60 Stolen Bases in the same season.

And in Ronald Acuña fashion, his 30th Home Run was a Grand Slam

Last night, Alex Cobb threw 131 pitches in a complete game.

This was the most pitches thrown in a game since May 7th, 2019 when A’s pitcher Mike Fiers threw a no-hitter against the Reds. This was also the 300th* no-hitter in MLB history
