And an ugly beginning to Bradley's Twins stint.

Remember when the White Sox were the butt of every bad baseball team joke?

Guess which team is taking that over.

We'll see if Taj Bradley fairs any better today.

Great trade, Derek.

 

[Roland Brooks]

Bradley has a better ERA than Griff… scary

My god, we are bad. The whole system with very few exceptions.

Total system failure. If they don't fire Falvey/Rocco it feels hopeless with zero reason to care about 2026.

He will be the youngest player in the International League this year.

Quite honestly, I'm ready for a total change in strategy, teaching and development. 3 run homers are great but not when you continually strike out or hit into DP's.
Small ball, defense and pitching would be more fun to watch.

Cal Raleigh hit his 49th HR today, which breaks the record for HR by a catcher. Seattle still has 31 games left. He’s on pace to hit around 60-61.

I had to go to Seattle to see a Pennant Race, but I was at T-Mobile Park to take in today's Athletics-Mariners contest. The M's got off to an 11-1 lead by the 3rd inning en route to an 11-4 laugher.

Raleigh's first HR was a bomb into the upper deck. Second was more of a laser line drive into the bullpen.



Fun afternoon, heat alert by Seattle standards, 87 degrees. Wonderful ballpark.

T-Mobile Park is nice. Parking around the Park is terrible, but the stadium is nice.

I stayed near Lake Union, got an Uber for $20 to the park. Took the light rail back north. Worked out pretty slick.

Soccer team had an evening match next door but I had other plans. Worked out marvelous for the street vendors.

Wonder what Cleveland's Municipal Stadium grounds crew would have to say about this squad?

 

[TNGophfan]

Even Ryan is getting knocked around. This could potentially be the worst September ever. By mid-month, you may be able to count the people in attendance.
