In Albert Pujols’ WORST season in St. Louis, when he was 42 years old, he had a slugging percentage 93 points higher than Sal this year

@startkyIeorton When Mahomes had Thornton this year he had no trouble with the deep ball. He was up there with Love/Allen in deep accuracy, and Thornton isn’t an elite receiver. His receivers can’t track deep balls & don’t get separation why do people expect him to not be a YAC merchant?

@TheWalletThe Also I said soul instead of sole by accident and honestly I think it fits because in their soul they know it’s wrong.

[Jonathan Berra @jonmberra]

@TheWalletThe If a 2030 juggernaut is the plan(I don’t think it is their soul plan) they should trade Winn, Walker, Burly, Herrera, Pallante, and Leahy.

@McMillinWx That’s cool.

[Jonathan Berra @jonmberra]

If manning going after the ball and Texas’s sideline reactions were factors in the decision everyone should fired. That’s a beyond bullshit reason to make a call.

[Eli Hoff @byEliHoff]

My takeaways:
- Refs thought Manning didn't have firm control of the ball and it wasn't an intentional throw.
- Side judge's incomplete signal was "inadvertent"
- Manning going after the ball + Texas sideline's reaction were factors in review
- No comment on this ref crew having a game this weekend, but 2 crews won't have an assignment
- The explanation happening is noteworthy itself b/c the SEC doesn't really do this kind of thing

@McMillinWx Kind of because I figured it would take a few years and a transfer or 2.

I’d be quite interested in Dylan Crews. The Cardinals have the minor league pitching depth to trade for him.

[Spencer Nusbaum @spencernusbaum_]

With a slim supply of right-handed hitting outfielders, Nationals outfielder Dylan Crews has emerged as a popular trade target around the league, per sources.

@JPHill_Cards I think it comes down to an ownership group that just doesn’t want to spend anymore.

[casey at the bat @thebenchesclear]

baseball’s significant reliance on datasets when compared to football, basketball or hockey should, in a vacuum, make it the only major american sport where you have to mot be a complete drooling moron to talk about it in any public forum. and yet life finds a way.

[Michael Schwab @michaelschwab13]

Brad Ausmus was interviewed before Randy Flores.

That tells you all you need to know.

[Jonathan Berra @jonmberra]

@TheWalletThe I don’t even mind if they got a guy like Stanelk again. But please free me from George Soriano and Justin Bruihl. But also they need someone young to step up big time.

@tipping_pitches Does this mean less pro-owner puff pieces?

While I think awards like Rookie of the Year aren’t the end all be all… if you’re going to attach draft picks to it, you need some kind of accountability from the voters. I’m not sure JJ deserved the award. His offensive falloff was rough. I am sure, however, that Sal didn’t.

Last ROTY tweet.

Why was Okamoto not the AL ROTY? He lead McGonigle by 15 HR and 20 RBI.
