Al was one of my absolute favorite people to talk to while I was covering baseball. He always treated me with the utmost respect, and his kindness encouraged me when I felt like I couldn't do the game justice. You will be greatly missed, Mr. Kaline.

Justin Verlander, Beautiful 81mph Curveball. 🤩

100 or so free agents left unsigned. System is broken. They blame “rebuilding” but that’s BS. You’re telling me you couldn’t sign Bryce or Manny for 10 years and go from there? Seems like a good place to start a rebuild to me. 26-36 is a great performance window too.

@joonlee So, I've missed nothing, then. That's what you're saying 😉

My grandmother passed away this evening at 92 y.o. She was a feisty, spirited, & loving woman. She did not like giving up and was determined to finish out the week. Her favorite president was George H. W. Bush. It is fitting (and comforting) that she passed one day after him.

@FrogTownTigers Beautiful work. I'm green with envy.

Derek Jeter was an awful shortstop. His defensive numbers rank among the worst.

If that's an out, I'm a millionaire.

[OptaSTATS @OptaSTATS]

To put the @Rockies' Kyle Freeland's night in perspective: since 2000, only one other lefty has gotten 20+ outs without allowing a run in a winner-take-all playoff game. That would be Madison Bumgarner, who tossed a CG shutout in the WC game in both 2014 and 2016. #Rocktober

Oh you beautiful, sweet, sexy game. Postseason baseball never disappoints.
