ESPN might need to add a Judge filter to their exit velocity stat like they had to do for Chapman with the pitch velocity

He's on there a lot, but the Chapman thing is totally different.
It's not nearly as bad this year.

On an unrelated note, can the royals just go ahead and cut Soler yet? Holy fuck it is painful to watch him bat AND field

I'm shocked Soler has been so bad. The amount of scouting that went into him, and the fact that he is the most highly rated prospect to ever come out of Cuba (well, or Moncada).

Betances walking people left and right, what the fuck. Ok Andrew Miller, you can come back now.. Just shows how amazing it is to have a guy like Miller, who can come in at any moment and just dominate guys. Clean inning or not.

Kyle Freeland had a no-hitter with two outs to go at Coors Field. Had. Way to ruin the fun Melky.

Not sure if anyone watched the homerun derby, but Judge sorta knows how to hit the ball. Oh, and this tweet had me laughing

That's funny considering it's about a player who plays for the Yankees.

Judge's spray chart in the HR Derby was just incredible. Dude was "missing" balls and hitting them upper deck opposite field. Incredible athlete. It's amazing how popular he's become in such a short time.

Mic'd up on the field stuff was pretty cool, and A-Rod running around interviewing the players. Loved the West & Cruz pic.

Still cry every time Cano hits a homer, can't believe the Yanks gave Ellsbury & McCann $230 million over Cano..

Jose Quintana to the Cubs for Eloy Jimenez, Dylan Cease and others. That happened quick. Honestly like the trade for both teams. White Sox have done great in their fire-sale. Eloy Jimenez could be an absolute stud in a Vlad Guerrero type mold.

Speaking of Guerrero, his son Vlad Guerrero Jr. is skyrocketing up prospect boards and may soon be the top overall prospect, he is murdering it and is ultra talented at 18 years old.

I am glad that trade was done. Now the Astros can focus on getting a deal done for Archer or Cole.

Well the Astros have done quite a few deals with the A's. There has to be a point where the Astros have to stop feeding divisional opponents. I'd rather those assets get out of the AL West and into the NL Cent or AL East.

Rick Hahn, at the moment, seems like the greatest GM ever. He's made a ton of good deals in the fire sale. Hopefully it rights the ship and puts this team back on the winning side of things in the upcoming years.

Yoan Moncada is going to be a monster..... if he can ever cut down on the strikeouts.
