    Not sure what to expect from the Astros, not the same team as the '17 and '22 WS Champions. Lost opener to the Angels 3-0

    There are only 3 teams above .500 in the AL. The A's, Yankee's and the Rays....is this parity?

    Why are outfield walls not padded? This is a pretty hard knock for the player, if they had padded the wall it would have been easier on his body for sure.

    Not much you can say bt WOW.

    Milwaukee's Jacob Misiorowski set a standard for velocity by a starting pitcher while keeping up his habit of performing best in high-profile situations.

    Misiorowski threw 10 pitches of at least 103 mph while striking out 11 over six dominant innings in the Brewers' 6-0 home victory over the New York Yankees on Friday night. He had three pitches of 103.6 mph, the highest velocity any starter has reached since Statcast tracking began in 2008.
