Long time baseball fan with many thoughts on how to improve the game. Lets borrow good practices from other sports. Of course, some ideas are better than others
Baseball is keeping afloat amongst a torrent of excitement over the World Cup of Soccer. The all-star game will compete with the first semifinal match on Tuesday, July 14, at AT&T Stadium in Arlington. The game is scheduled to kick off at 2:00 p.m. local time. France vs Spain
The Blue Jays have five injured starting pitchers:
José Berríos
Shane Bieber
Bowden Francis
Cody Ponce
Trey Yesavage
They did recognize pitcher injury as a risk so they came into 2026 with a deep rotation.
From @HighLevBaseball
In his career, Aaron Judge has hit 95 balls at 110+ MPH with a 25° to 35° launch angle
- 90 of went for HRs
- 3 of went for 2B/3B
- 2 were caught by Kiké Hernández
Julio Rodríguez's robbery defied the odds, in arguably the biggest game of his life 🇩🇴
Today @BrodieBz has proposed a way to optimize The World Baseball Classic. He suggest they play the quarter-finals over the all star break.

Jac Caglianone is hitting the ball very hard with many spring EVs over 110 MPH. Mike Podhorzer is predicting he will hit 30 homers.

Otto Lopez is playing For Canada in the 2026 World Baseball Classic even though he was born in the Dominican Republic. He grew up in Montreal. The reverse is true for Vladimir Guerrero Jr. who was born in Montreal.

DAVID DIXON was the mastermind behind the USFL. Donald Trump and other wealthy owners may have destroyed the league prematurely. MLB may eventually be forced to compete with a rival league.
First Glenn Davis then Chris Davis and now Pete Alonso. The Baltimore Orioles are gluttons for punishment. Ryan Mountcastle is the new Randy Milligan: a decent player cast aside by overrated vet.
Mike Elias the GM of the Baltimore Orioles has made some strange decisions. He offered Ryan Mountcastle arbitration recently despite having Cabo Mayo, a more promising first baseman on the roster. Now it has been announced that they've signed Alonso.
In 2020, the Tampa Bay Rays defeated the Blue Jays during the playoffs before meeting the Dodgers in the finals. Blake Snell and Tyler Glasnow were the two starting pitchers. 5 years later, those two will be pitching against the Blue Jays again. This time in the World Series.
