Grant Taylor made seven pitches. Five became hard-hit balls, but four were outs. As many hard-hit balls as the Guardians had the rest of the game combined.

Jo Adell's fly was hit 108.2 mph and 32 degrees. Over the last three years, there were 39 balls hit at 108-109 mph and 32 degrees. 36 were homers.

Odd not to see the MLB leader in RBI here. Alec Burleson also had a better OPS than Stewart or Walker.

Just an incredible freakin' at-bat.

Everyone assuming that Chris Sale would have started Games 2/5 if not for the relief appearance is ignoring that he hadn't worked on four days' rest since Apr. 6. And that would have been two straight on four days. Sale at 100% in Game 3 and in pen in Game 5 might have always been their best play.

That ball was hit with a 49-degree launch angle. I'm not promising it was staying in play, but it wasn't going as far as the broadcast booth seems to think.

That ball from Tommy Pham was 106.1 mph off the bat with a 31-degree launch angle. There were 25 balls in the regular season hit 106-107 mph at a 31-degree launch angle. All 25 were homers. 24 went at least 390 feet. Pham's went 366 feet. Casey Schmitt had one 370 feet, but HR anyway.

Spencer Jones busted his butt to get to first base on a strikeout/wild pitch, opened the door for a six-run inning. Bryce Harper did not.

Meaningless but fun: Sean Manaea threw 150 2/3 innings while making fewer than 20 starts (19) this year. The last four pitchers to throw more innings while making fewer than 20 starts: Johan Santana in 2003 Tim Wakefield in 2002 Tim Wakefield in 2001 Tim Wakefield in 2000

Ignoring strike years/2020... .316 average is lowest to lead the majors ever 45 homers is lowest total to lead the majors since 2014 116 RBI is lowest total to lead the majors since 2014 119 runs scored is lowest total to lead majors since 2014 40 doubles is lowest total to lead majors since 1972

Sometimes I freak out after one of these top-story blurbs go out on social media... Kade Anderson is a left-hander, right? Of course he is. I've seen Kade Anderson pitch several times. And I'm certain he was throwing left-handed while doing so. Almost completely certain.

I was out this afternoon, but watching Verlander now and this is one of the ultimate, most unexpected final performances of all-time... ...from Laz f'ing Diaz. Going 4-for-4 on challenges and then taking over the game once the strike zone was his and his alone. Just a master troll. Bravo.

In general, I get that it's very hard to enforce the rule that a batter has to make an attempt to avoid a HBP for it to count as a HBP. Maybe just this once, though?

Yikes. Everyone is staying in the game for now, though. Cooper Pratt's arm there seemed to take the worst of it.

Kade Anderson was never allowed to throw more than 80 pitches in the minors this year and then gives up homers on pitches No. 80 and No. 81 in his first major league start.

The team's four best hitters all lost for the season, and I don't think anyone would be surprised if Jacob Wilson gets shut down at some point, too.

It's really impressive how Benge always seems to know how much time he has. He has a gun, but he can just take his time and prioritize accuracy, too.

Haven't heard from him in probably 20 years, but Douglas Ollivant was one of my earliest readers, used to ask a bunch of fantasy questions. Hopefully I told him to go all in on Matt Riley and Hee-Seop Choi.

Selling low on Brenton Doyle while keeping Mickey Moniak and Jake McCarthy is very on brand for the Rockies.

I thought I was really low on Spencer Arrighetti but giving him up for two months of the 2026 version of Daulton Varsho seems bizarre to me.

Matthew Pouliot @matthewpouliot.bsky.social · 02/08/2026
Conflicting! I'd certainly rather have Ryan than Sheehan if I'm the Tigers. Riskier, but considerably more upside. Sheehan seems best utilized as a reliever, imo.

Matthew Pouliot @matthewpouliot.bsky.social · 02/08/2026
Not so stunning when you factor in they're shedding the $12 million Seranthony was owed next year. So, that's an extra $5.5 million or so this year and $10.75 million next year.

They need to get rid of these ridiculous catcher interferences when the batter isn't even trying to swing. Grisham just tapped the catcher's glove after the ball was already in there. Nothing is being interfered with.

Is it just because his name is Angel? O'Hoppe was on a path to being non-tendered, but Silseth should have had some actual value.

Paul Sewald isn't any good, but they knew that going in, and the D-backs are 26-1 when he's been asked to close out a game this year. Why mess with that? In the last 2 1/2 months, he's played a role in exactly one loss, and it was because he allowed one unearned run in a tie game.

Braves booth asking why Juan Soto didn't slide on this and suggesting that he could have gotten someone hurt when sliding on this probably would have been the thing that got someone hurt.

If they're squeezing Bryce Harper on to the NL All-Star squad as a "Legends" pick, they should have at least done the same for Paul Goldschmidt, who has been terrific, hasn't been in an ASG in four years and is actually nearing the end of his HOF career.

MLB reviews need to be more like NBA reviews, because if you can overturn this and get it called a pickoff, you can also see that this is obviously obstruction on Stewart's part and thus not a pickoff at all.
