    The girl just walked in and said "hey, he's got your hair but you're blonder" as LMJ is walking back to the mound. "Your beard is better too."

    I haven't had a haircut since Thanksgiving '19, and I can't wait until my 2nd shot to go get one. It's ridiculously unfomfotable. I have no idea how he pitches with that stuff flopping around.

    Nice K-pitch to Alvarez there. Wicked movement on whatever the hell that was. RHP with movement away from a LH

    Surprisingly, Yordan's OPS is barely .900

    Awesome start by LMJ. The slider/curveball combo is really starting to befuddle hitters on both sides of the plate.

    Still bitter about not seeing more of Solomon.

    I am seriously rooting for Emanuel. He's been through some stuff, and has the long scars on his elbow to prove it.

    he’s smoking the ball but not getting the home runs. A lot of sharp singles and doubles. Hopefully he starts lifting it a bit more soon ... but he’s the last guy I’m worried about.

    He's got a traditional 5th starter inning eater vibe about him.

    Edit: not sure if that is a fair assessment. Just the vibe I get.

    Oh I'm not worried either. It's just funny how things are sometimes.

    Recent stat said Yordan was the first player since year 1900 with 30 HR 90 RBIs in first career 100 games.

    Pre-1900 was Deadball, so either 1) stats weren't kept properly and/or 2) major cheating/corruption was happening and/or 3) Alvarez is a completely awesome hitter.

    No Yordan worries from me :)

    Yordan damn near killed the Ray's bullpen with that linedrive.
