As of today, all you need to be in a playoff spot in the NL is to have a winning record. That's it.

Can we take a moment to appreciate how horribly the Yankees are trending? They have a 2-man lineup and then a bunch of sub-.700 OPS guys. 1 of the 2 will hit the open market and require enormous investment, while the other is on the wrong side of 30.
They have approx $100M/year allocated for the foreseeable future to:
Giancarlo Stanton Gerrit Cole Carlos Rodon
I’d be fine with them retaining Soto at the top dollar it will require, but I expect him to move on if their season ends poorly. Which seems likely.
Maybe I am suffering from recency bias, but this looks like a 2 man team to me. Ask Mike Trout how that usually works out.

Wallace is #7 FG/#2 MLB Pipeline in a bad Royals system, plus #39 in the draft for 1.5 years of a good reliever who will make 5-6 million over that time.

That Butler kid that killed us for the A's hit three home runs today The 37-61 Athletics that just last Saturday put up 19 runs on the Orioles, today scored 2 touchdowns with 1 extra point and 1 two-point conversion, plus a FG, in the last 6 innings of a road game against the juggernaut Phillies. That's baseball, Susan. I look forward to reading a future post on a Gameday thread that says if the Sox don't sweep a series against (insert bad team's name here) what a colossal failure, or missed opportunity, it will be.

Big Papi is the best clutch hitter AND MFY hater lmao GOAT! He and Pedro are awesome. I remember the little dance Pedro did on TBS when the Sox disposed of the Yankees in the ALDS. Those two guys GET the rivalry. They totally get it. Glad they were on our side.

The Royals have unveiled the mother of all ballpark foods… The Taste of the K Taco is a hot dog wrapped in a cheeseburger quesadilla and topped with barbecue brisket, fries, lettuce, pickled onion, Sriracha Cracker Jacks, and barbecue sauce

I'm with you until the Cracker Jacks. Feels like 95% of them are falling off as you eat it.

Jacob Wilson got the call. He is a career .401/.445/.613 hitter in the minors.
