It could be Tommy Pham and Mark Canha, who are having solid seasons and look like tradeable veterans, though they won’t bring this sort of return.

Atlanta Falcons 2022 second-round pick Troy Andersen may be a new age linebacker but he has an old school story, and for that reason he has an entire state behind him.

Joe Kelly receives a warm welcome at Dodger Stadium

#

Max Muncy is hitting .195 with 25 HR, is he on pace for one of the greatest sub-Mendoza line seasons ever?

#

Really curious who else would be on this list in the first place

Adam Dunn came SO close to running away with this in 2012 (41 home runs) but he managed to get his BA to .204 by seasons end so it doesn’t count. I thought Matt Stairs might have flirted with it but closest he got was a .220/21 home runs season.

Wondering who else had seasons where they hit .200 or below with 25 or more HR

EDIT: Max has 27 home runs not 25 and his BA is up to .199, the stats page hadn’t been updated with todays 2 yet

Mike Clevinger in his first game back from injury against the Guardians: 5 IP, 2 H, 0 R/ER, 0BB, 3 K, lowers his ERA to 3.59 on 72 pitches

#

It’ll be interesting to see if he garners any trade interest in the next few days. Ignoring issues of his character he’s been solid for the sox but has struggled somewhat with injuries, and has an option for next year which may be appealing in a deadline thin on sellers

#

REAKING: The Mets send $22.5 million to Texas, per league sources. Receive Acuna. Scherzer goes to Texas. That is the trade.

#

Correction: Texas is paying Scherzer $22.5 MM. Mets are paying it down to that level. My mistake for typing it backwards.

No player has ever played for the Cardinals, the Twins, and the Marlins.

#

This is the only three team combination this is true for - every other set of three extant franchises has had at least one player play for all three. At the beginning of this year, there was no Cardinals/Twins/Rays player either, but Taylor Motter became the first when he suited up for the Cardinals.

Just another thing to keep an eye on this trade deadline - there are no obvious candidates to go to the Marlins or Twins who would complete the set, but you never know.

This fact comes to you courtesy of frequent Stat Blast consultant Ryan Nelson, who was kind enough to run the data for me.

After last night the Dodgers have allowed more earned runs than they did all last season

#

2022 Dodgers 162 games 451 ER

2023 Dodgers 102 games 453 ER

#

The Orioles, Rays, and Red Sox all lost tonight

#

One point of debate has been whether it’s ultimately better to devote more trade capital to a bullpen add or a right-handed bat, but perhaps the Romano injury tips the scales.

#

All of that adds up to additional risk, which the Blue Jays should mitigate by adding not merely a depth reliever, but a leverage arm capable of protecting them in the short-term while Romano recuperates and boosting them once he returns.

While that’s easy to say and hard to do, a reliever had already been on GM Ross Atkins’ to-do list before Tuesday’s cut-off. A top-end rental like St. Louis Cardinals fireballer Jordan Hicks may be out of reach since the Blue Jays aren’t likely to be a sellers’ first choice given the depletion of their farm system, but there are always ways to get creative to make things happen.

Chart: Franchise tag trend by position in the last 5 years

#

The running back position is the only position to decline in the past 5 years (RB is down 15% while the average position outside of RB is up 26%).
RBs were 8th highest in 2018, today they are 10th highest above only Kicker/Punter
QB and LB have grown at the highest rate with a 40% increase, followed by DT at +36%.
In 2018 the QB tag wasn't even twice as high as the RB tag, but today it is 3.2X more than the RB tag.

How much stock should you put into a young player's early MLB performance?

#

Anthony Rizzo (NYY) achieved a Platinum Sombrero against Baltimore tonight

#

0-5 at the plate with 5 Ks. It’s not what you want.

#

Rizzo in July against teams not named the Royals: .130/.221/.145

#

With their win today the Orioles went 7-6 against the Yankees this year. Their first time taking the season series vs them since they went 10-9 in 2016

#

Luis Severino this season: 7.49 ERA, .329/.391/.586 opp. slash, .362 opp. BABIP, 1.84 WHIP, 2.3 HR/9, 12.8 H/9. 7.8 K/9. All career-worsts

#

Maybe one of the worst contract year performances ever

#

Luis Severino v Orioles: 3.1 IP, 10 H, 9 ER, 2 BB, 5 K, 1 HR. ERA up to 7.49 now

#

The Yankees were using the weekend’s series against the Orioles as a barometer. If they didn’t look like pretenders, the front office would take real action. If they stunk like the subway platform at the 161st Street station, Cashman would likely sit on his hands

#

The Baltimore Orioles had their 2nd 7-run against the New York Yankees in 2023.

#

6/6 @Yankees Stadium when the Yankees gave up 7 run in the 3rd inning. It happened again on 7/30 @Camden Yards the Orioles drove in 7 run in the first inning. In both games Luis Severino had 7+ ER while starting for the Yankees.

#

The Cubs 8 game winning streak (snapped today) contained just 1 series sweep

#

Mets are listening, but there is a growing industry belief that Justin Verlander will stay put

#

Seems pretty unusual. They won the final 3 games of a 4 game series against the Cardinals, had a 2 game sweep against the White Sox, and then won the first 3 games of another 4 game series against the Cardinals before the winning streak was snapped in the series finale.

Adam Frazier's 3-run homer off Severino makes it 6-0 Orioles over the Yankees in the first with no outs.

So you’re telling me we left 28 on base this series and won 2/3?

For the first time since 2017, all 30 MLB teams have managed to get at least one series sweep

#

2022 Nats didn't get a sweep

2021 Pirates didn't get a sweep

2020 Cardinals didn't get a sweep

2019 O's didn't get a sweep

2018 Marlins didn't get a sweep

As for 2023, everyone got a sweep:

Guardians Aaron Civale against the White Sox: 6 IP, 0 ER, 4 SO, 3 H, and 2 BB on 81 pitches. Finishes July with a 1.45 ERA in 37.1 IP

This stat is through the ninth inning in the final game of the series. The Angels contribution has been a glorious 0-27 with RISP, though they have managed to score two runs with the bases loaded due to a (season ended injury) HBP and a sac fly.

This game is headed to extras, and we might be due for a lot of stranded zombie runners

Riley Greene stats since May 3 (177 PA): .358/.424/.560 (175 wRC+), 6 HR, 12 2B, 1 3B, 46 K, 17 BB.

#

This stretch includes an injury that knocked him out about a month but it’s still a fairly notable sample size. He also sports a 54% HardHit%, 11.5% barrel%, and a 93.4 mph average EV in that span. Up to 2.2 fWAR/2.3 bWAR with elite Savant numbers on the full season. He’s only 22. It’s time to start recognizing him as one of the brightest young stars in the league.

#

Since we're nearing the end of the month, scatterplot of teams' overall win percentages and their July win percentages. What sticks out to you? For me, it's the Cubs and Mariners having the exact same records overall and this month.

#

The Chicago White Sox are telling teams that Dylan Cease and Aaron Bummer are off limits, but they would be willing to trade Keynan Middleton. They would listen for offers for shortstop Tim Anderson and will give away catcher Yasmani Grandal.

#

According to Baseball Reference playoff odds, the Chicago Cubs, 3.5 games behind the Brewers and 3.0 behind the Reds, are now the favorites to win the NL Central

#

They also have the Cubs overall playoff odds at 53%, up 25.9% in the last 7 days, despite the Cubs being 3.0 games back for the Wild Card, with Miami and Arizona both still on the outside looking in yet 2.5 games better than the Cubs.

Meanwhile Fangraphs has bumped the Cubs up past the Reds for both division and overall playoff odds, and the Cubs 31.3% playoff odds on Fangraphs are the high water mark for the season.

#

According to the source, the Marlins have been pushing hard for Torres, but the Yankees’ asking price has been too steep for their liking — two 25-year-old starting pitchers, right-hander Edward Cabrera and lefty Braxton Garrett, plus two prospects.

We have nary a batting cage in our country so I never knew a thing about baseball before moving to Canada.

I’ve become an avid fan and all of a sudden stum upon this guy.

3 times world series win participations, being instrumental in one of them - While only hitting a single home run in his storied career.

In July, Blake Snell had a 0.56 ERA while walking 26 in 32 innings (7.3 BB/9)

#

The Rays have been hunting for starting pitching, and in Aaron Civale, they get a perfect fit: innings eater with a vicious breaking ball and real performance this year (2.34 ERA in 77 innings over 13 starts). Manzardo is a heavy price. He can really hit. @TBTimes_Rays was first.

President of baseball operations A.J. Preller has maintained high asking prices for either pitcher, and it seemed safe to assume a third consecutive victory over an impressive Rangers team would not significantly lower his target.
