    I think the dad hit two grand slams in one inning which had never been done before.

    He hit those two grand slams against my Dodgers. His son is even better and those Padres have me worried.

    Man....friggin Brewers own the Cards.

    But here's how I look at it. How many times have we seen this in Baseball, and then the playoffs happen. The glass is half full. Or as George says, "its April".

    Astros streak continues and they take over 1st in the ALW. Colin McHugh is the find of the season so far, who knew adding a slider to your pitches would make such a difference.

    Dodgers broom the Reds. Phillies win a big game.

    Tribe hanging in there. Were swept by struggling KC and then turned around and swept the red hot Mariners to go 5-4 on the road trip. Goofy game. Carrasco is unhittable in his second start...can't get out of the first inning in his third start...then pitches a gem in his fourth start. Kipnis and Lindor have rejoined the team.

    Urias tossed a one-hitter with 9 Ks and no walks against the Brewers. After the game, he was reassigned to the bullpen with the return of Kershaw, Hill and Ryu...

    Bellinger is hitting .432 with 10 HRs. He and Yelich were talking before the game. They've developed a friendly rivalry.

    LA is giving the Brewers a nasty dose of reality so far this weekend.

    The Brewers are for real. The Dodgers have no solution for Yelich and I'm not sure one can be found. I see Milwaukee going right down to the wire with St. Louis in the Central. LA's nearest competitor out here is......cough...cough... San Diego.

    Brewers are for real....Cards and Co. Better keep pace or they're gonna get lapped.

    Yelich hit 2 more HRs tonight at Miller Park. His home and away stats as of last night were pretty interesting:

    Home: .419/.527/1.233 11 HR’s
    Away: .270/.325/.324 0 HR’s

    Yankees are now 10-10 in spite of having their entire starting lineup except Gleyber Torres as well as their best pitcher and best reliever now on the Injured List.. If George Steinbrenner were still around he would have fired the entire strength and conditioning staff by now.

    Pretty amazing all the injuries that your Yankee's have endured. Now Judge is on the IL.

    One of the teams I haven't analyzed yet is the Cubs. We open in Chicago tomorrow, so I should know a lot more about them by the end of the week...

    BTW- I'm not an American League fan, so I urge those fans to keep the info coming. Thx.

    The Red Sox starting pitching started the season by not being able to get anyone out, but seem to have found themselves somewhat by stopping the Rays who were off to a good start. The entire Yankees organization is on the DL. Mike Trout is still the best player in the game, but he's on a horse **** team. There are a few teams showing promise, but like Game of Thrones, it will all fade when the big houses get their **** together somewhere around the All-Star break.
