    That ball had a 15% catch probability and was the Phillies first "5-star catch" this season.

    Pretty incredible that a SP makes 3 defensive plays in OF that (almost) single handedly kept the game tied. Gotta love baseball, always potential for something you've never seen before

    Has anybody checked on the Blue Jays fan base? They may need to be put on suicide watch.

    Here's a twofer, JD Davis hits one to the moon off of Joe Musgrove:

    More proof that Astros can't develop pitchers.

    Or that the Pirates are the anti-Astros... and they get less out of pitchers rather than more.

    Has there been any stories about how the Astros turned Cole into the most dominant pitcher in baseball, while the Pirates had him for prime years and actually helped contribute to his regression?

    What are you talking about? Davis has a 3.38 career ERA with 13.5 Ks per 9.

    It was in jest. I keep seeing references to starting pitchers that were developed primarily in the Astros Minor League System. VV is throwing people out as a left fielder. Musgrove gave up a homer. Woj has a weird name. Houser exists. Sandoval is be starting tonight if Angels don't use opener. Mengden got optioned. Lyles is still around.

    Villar hit for the cycle least night against the Yankees. Too bad the Yankees still won.

    I think that Sandoval kid got called up by the Angels, the one we traded to the Angels for Machete last year.

    Yep. He was the bulk last night and had a solid line.

    5IP, 3H, 2R, 2ER, 2BB, 8K

    All things considered that’s a fantastic first game in the majors.

    I predict Sandoval has a career similar to Wandy Rodriguez.
