SP #8 for the year lasted 2/3 of an inning.

Manager great Sparky Anderson said if a team is .500 at the midway point, they still have a shot at the playoffs.

It was definitely triple digits when I left PHX this afternoon. Peaked at 105F.

Cleveland wants to get ahead of Detroit as many games it can while Detroit is battling injuries.

Since 2015, the number of starters teams most often used in a full length season has been 11. That number seems to be all at once pretty large and yet still unsurprising. What’s maybe more surprising is the long righthand tail of the distribution above: a lot of teams field 12+ starting pitchers each season. On average, teams have used close to 12 (11.8) starters in the past 7 full seasons. The 2019 Blue Jays used the most distinct starters since 2015 with 21.

This evening, the Detroit Tigers will use starting pitcher number 9, who hasn't started a major league game since 2024.

The Tigers may end up with 17-18 distinct starters this season.

I have a (free) Spotify account. Have listened maybe a couple of times. Prefer Sirius XM.
