The way I look after myself, I'll be happy to outlast Pujols. Put your money on Morbius.

clemenza and I should bet on which of us makes it alive to the end of Bryce Harper's career.

Any way of getting word to Matt Cain within the next hour or so that there are two people who really believe in him?

Trout led off with a single. Just missed.

Pretty easy to guess which two dopes voted for him, imo. Xp grrr.

there are now 30 pitchers who have thrown multiple no-hitters
many of them are legends; some were merely good. and with each passing day, homer bailey is gaining ground on bill stoneman as the worst of them

Homer Bailey's been pitching for like twenty years and still only has a bWAR of 4.4 but good for him, at least he has another season left on a $105 million contract.

What's more likely, back-to-back no-hitters or homering in eight consecutive games? The first has been done once, the second three times, so I guess the home run binge. But I calculate the probability of someone like Morales homering in eight straight games at something close to 16,000,000 to 1. (He homers approximately once every seven games, so I used 1/7-to-the-8th-power...is that mathematically sound?)
