Looking at the 6 teams that are definitively “out of it” and what starting pitching they might have to trade:

Baltimore: Sugano and Eflin are both on expiring contracts.

White Sox: Martin Perez is on an expiring contract, but may not be healthy until very late in the season.

Oakland: Severino has an additional year, but is really expensive for what you’re getting.

Miami: Alcantara is relatively cheap and very talented, but is having an awful year.

Pittsburgh: Heaney is cheap, on an expiring contract, and has been pretty good over the last 4 years. He’d be my top target.

Colorado: if they had any pitching worth getting, they’d have gotten to double-digit wins before June.

In the 8 days since I posted this, the Braves have gone 2-6 and are now 14 games out of the division and 9 games out of the WC. If Chris Sale becomes available, he’s clearly your #1 target.

On a very reasonable club option for 2026, too.

Did anybody else see the Justin Turner celebration after Seyia's home run where he was fan of the game ? This should be the talk of the internet for the next day or 2. Boog and JD were speechless for about a minute.
I just took off the attachment. I don't want to be banned.

Just looked it up. The only question I have is this: Why?

So stupid for someone that is supposed to be a leader on this team.

I’m good to see Busch hit against the lefties.

Send this clown packing.

ok, that's fine. I'm a big fan of sophomoric humor. It wasn't as funny as the guy sitting behind home plant pantomiming oral sex, though. :) That actually made me laugh. This didn't make me laugh, it made me scratch my head, trying to figure out why. Anyway...Turner should have kept it in the clubhouse.

He sort of did. It was in the tunnel. You normally don't expect a camera down there. If he saw the camera and continued that's a little strange.
Once again, the thing I don't understand is how did Marquee not see that and put on the air 3 or 4 innings later IN SLOW MOTION. Different story if it was live.

Another bad loss due to poor managing and the inability to hit good pitching by their supposed star hitters.

Will be a short october if they make it.
