Honestly sad about Jeremy Giambi, in his 40's, committing suicide by gunshot in his parents' home. Incredibly sad.
What do you guys think of the Donaldson Anderson beef? I think I'm on Donaldson's side on this. Anderson literally compared himself to one of the icons in baseball and racial equality in an interview with Sports Illustrated. Donaldson busted his chops for it, and Anderson had to pull the race card.

It sure is interesting how the MLB went from absolutely dead baseballs that could be crushed by the batter only to end up lazy pop outs to having HR numbers not seen since the late 90's and early 00's AND a washed up slugger reaching his highest HR total in years in half the plate appearances all in the same season. I think it's pretty clear to anyone paying attention that the league is tampering with the baseballs again.
So Aaron Judge is at 60 home runs for the season and yet he has been batting leadoff pretty much the whole season and my question is why?
Interesting to see the Giants giving C. Correa that much $. Not really how the org has been rolling but they've felt a lot of heat from fans and local media this year. You guys know Correa a lot better than I do, but it feels like a reach. He's not a Trout-like or Ohtani-like ballplayer, is he? I guess he's been consistent and dependable, also a good playoff performer.
