Rumor mill was saying that the Dodgers claimed Harper but they couldn't get a deal in place for him.

Who knows? If true, I'm kind of glad that they claimed him and the Yankees didn't have a chance.
I'm hoping they do something about getting a replacement for Bird at first, I just change the channel whenever he comes up to the plate anymore

He's so damned frustrating.

On top of the 7,000 injuries he's always dealing with... He'll have 1 game where he looks like the stud everyone expected and hope he would be and then he'll follow that up with 4 games where he's completely useless at the plate. Tonight is one of those useless nights.

6 AB's & didn't reach base once, he's worse than a replacement player. I think Cashman realizes they don't have enough starting pitching to make a serious run & don't want to give up prospects for rentals this year

I fell asleep before the end of the game last night. Had to feel good for Scooter to hit the game winner in the 9th against the club that released his ass.

Mariners have bunted into two double plays tonight which is kinda amazing
It's the beginning of the end.
"King" Felix throws 1 pitch & it's 1-0.
We've got the A's & Astros losing to each other & we're handing the game to the fucking Padres.

Andujar hit a two run home run tonight to bring the score to 4-2 Chi-town. Hicks hit a two run shot to tie it up. Walker hit a walk off HR. #startspreadingthenews

Billy H picked up his 12th outfield assist last night. That leads the league.

Just give that dude his gold glove now.

From what I'd read, their record was vastly outperforming their run differential early in the season, could just be regression to the mean

Does anyone know what the record is for most players with 10+ homeruns on a team in a single season?

Not sure if it's the record..
The 2005 Rangers had 7 guys with 20+, and 9 at 15+

Looks like the Yanks might end up with 12 guys at 10+ this year. I'm assuming that's why you are asking.

Pretty impressive.
