Major League Baseball needs to find a better way to promote itself, because this weekend's Padres-Dodgers series in Los Angeles, culminating in tonight's spectacular game on ESPN, should be the first thing that all the sports talk shows are leading with on Monday morning.
You couldn't ask for more - a highly competitive series between two elite teams that genuinely dislike one another, Fernando Tatis Jr. continuing his ascent to becoming one of the biggest superstars in the sport, leading into a nationally-televised game in which San Diego had to claw back from a six-run deficit to tie it in the ninth inning. And yet it'll be a footnote on shows like First Take, Undisputed, Around the Horn, and PTI, if it even gets airtime.

Let's spend all day talking about that, lol.

Mad Bum has been having a pretty shitty season but he threw an unofficial no-no against ATL today since it was a 7 inning game as part of a double header

I don't know what's more astounding, how bad The Phillies look or how bad their whole division looks right now. It's supposed to be the NL East, not the NFC East

Not a tweet I would have expected coming into this season. Give every aging / hurting player a full season off.

Holy shit, Buxton is going f***ing nuts this season. Good to see that he's got his hitting sorted out.

Welp looks like DeGrom is cashing in on another letdown special. This team can't hit water if they fell off a boat.

The Phillies win, but every win has to have a bad vibe. Genesis Cabrera hit Bryce Harper in the face with a 97 MPH pitch and then hit Didi Gregorius in the ribs on the very next pitch
If I were the Cardinals, I'd probably watch out for a reciept tomorrow.

I don't think there's gonna be a receipt. The Phillies know both were on accident, and they weren't just on back to back pitches, they were the first 2 pitches he threw in the game. Nobody's gonna bean 2 batters back to back in a tie game, like what happened with Cabrera. It's that f***ing 3 batter rule. The umps should have just tossed Cabrera for the safety of the players, because he had no control at all.

Holy shit, Buxton is going f***ing nuts this season. Good to see that he's got his hitting sorted out. Byron Buxton hitting .438, even in a month sample size: Even as a 5-tool prospect, the average is what was probably his weakest skill. He's always been an amazing fielder, his pop has looked good at times, and he still has speed on the bases even if he doesn't really utilize it. But as a career .238 hitter who would just have slumps where he didn't even look like a major league batter, this stretch is wild. I hope he keeps it up. And also that he doesn't injure himself running into a wall.

Hey, don't look now, but the team everybody hates is winning again.
Also, I bought tickets to the Pirates Triple-A team for the first time in two years yesterday. Boy, did I really miss minor league ball.

White Sox sweep a doubleheader against Detroit.
Carlos Rodon's April: 4-0, 0.72 ERA, 36 K's over 25 innings, 9 BB, 7 hits allowed, OP batting 7-for-82 against him.
Not too shabby.

This is high expectation people expected for him Getting non-tendered and signing a minors deal got him focused and White Sox are getting rewarded. White Sox got the arms and bats to get it done

Blue Jays released a statement today:
He's pretty much erased from the team history at this point.
