Ora a metà stagione si potrebbe dire che si hanno le idee più chiare; in realtà ci sono 8/9 squadre che potrebbero vincere...bellissimo!

[joesox]

Mah, sono 43-7 nelle ultime 50! Non succedeva dal 1912. Chiaramente è l'anno dei Dodgers.

In effetti ora lo penso anche io a meno di collassi improvvisi.....

Detroit Tigers second baseman Ian Kinsler unloaded a series of grievances against Angel Hernandez on Tuesday, one day after the veteran umpire ejected him for arguing balls and strikes.

Speaking to reporters, Kinsler said that Hernandez, who has been a major league umpire since 1993, "needs to re-evaluate his career choice" because he's "messing with baseball games."

"I'm surprised at how bad an umpire he is," Kinsler said, according to the Detroit News. "I don't know how, for as many years he's been in the league, that he can be that bad. He needs to re-evaluate his career choice, he really does. Bottom line.

"If I get fined for saying the truth, then so be it. He's messing with baseball games, blatantly."

....Kinsler per la serie "la tocco piano"... Sono curioso di seguire le reazioni a queste dichiarazioni.

Andatevi a vedere chi è l'interbase titolare dei Blue Jays oggi

There’s still more than a month left on the schedule, but we’re on pace to see the 10-day DL used 775 times this season. That would be an increase in short-term DL stints of 40 percent compared with last year. And it’s not just that injury rates are suddenly up across the board in 2017: Long-term disabled list usage has stayed at almost the same level for the past five years.

It’s clear, then, that the new 10-day disabled list has changed the way teams tinker with their rosters. But the new list didn’t so much create a new problem as exacerbate an old one. League-wide use of the short-term DL has jumped in each of the past four years (including this season) — and the Dodgers have paved the way. Since Andrew Friedman left the Tampa Bay Rays to become president of baseball operations for the Dodgers after the 2014 season, the team has led the league in short-term DL stints every year.

Extended rest (five or more days) seems to reduce the probability of a serious injury by 20 percent, so a smart team might try to frequently rest fragile starters to minimize the risk that they will become severely hurt. And that’s exactly what the Dodgers have done. So far this season, they are on pace to have the second-most starts thrown by pitchers with five or more days of rest than any team since at least 2009. And last season’s Dodgers already had the third-highest mark since 2009, so the new 10-day disabled list didn’t necessarily inspire this tactic. But it might have made the strategy more effective by allowing their pitchers to miss fewer starts.

Tattica da copiare immediatamente.

Dodgers in caduta libera.

19 in fila. Chiaramente è l'anno degli Indians.

[Honkytonk]

Questo non lo so, ma è certo che la Tribù sta arrivando come un treno verso i PO, se mantengono anche solo un po' questa inerzia potrebbero davvero far grandi cose

[joesox]

Venti in fila per gli Indians. Eguagliato il record dell'American League degli A's di Moneyball.

[Honkytonk]

21 W !!!
Gli Indians entrano nella Storia dalla porta principale.

Durante questa striscia +105 di run differential , per sottolineare di che diavolo di marcia stiamo parlando

[Broncostwin]

Poi qualcuno mi spiegherà perché la striscia di vittorie più lunga di 26 partite vinte viene data ai giants nel 1916
Con il piccolo particolare che in mezzo ne hanno pareggiata una.... io sapevo che il pareggio non è una vitttoria. E siccome si sta parlando di striscia vincente e non di imbattibilita.....
Cmque ,a parte tutto, grande tribù !!!!
