Your 2023 Baltimore Orioles have won the AL East!

#

With a 2-0 victory over the Red Sox, the Orioles have established an insurmountable lead over the Rays combined with their season series win versus the Tampa Bay team. This is the first time the Orioles have won the AL East since 2014. Additionally, this is their 100th win of the season, giving them their first 100 win season since 1980, and making them the first team to go from 100 or more losses to 100 or more wins in 2 seasons since the 1969 Miracle Mets.

#

The Pirates and Phillies finish their regular season series about as even as possible

#

With the Pirates win over the Phillies tonight, they will finish the season series 3-3. But it’s more than that. Every game between the two teams was either a 1 run final score or went into extra innings. Pennsylvania stays divided for this year.

7/28: Phillies win 2-1

#

In 1935, Arky Vaughan of the Pittsburgh Pirates won the batting title while posting an OPS+ of 190. Only three shortstops in MLB history have ever posted an OPS+ of 170 or higher: Seager, Vaughan, and Honus Wagner (5x).

(I defined primary position as at least 70% of games at the position in a given year. No idea if there’s a standard for that sort of thing but that’s just what I settled on.)

#

From his age 26-28 seasons (2021-2023), Shohei Ohtani accumulated exactly 28.6 bWAR. This is tied with Pedro Martinez for most in that age range since integration

#

Also: Ohtani was worth 14.3 WAR both with his bat and with his arm. No, you’re cherry picking! (Source: Stathead)

#

Gunnar Henderson (6.2 bWAR, 4.7 fWAR) and Corbin Carroll (5.3 bWAR, 5.7 fWAR) are practically tied in value for their rookie seasons and are the odds on favorite to win Rookie of the Year Awards in their leagues. If you could have one on your team who would you choose?

#

The National League has won the first year of balanced* interleague play at no worse than 357-325

#

The NL currently holds a 357-320 mark with five games left, all involving the Diamondbacks. Therefore the victory was actually clinched some time ago (but does not appear to have received a post at that time).

The big winners were the Blue Jays and Dodgers (30-16), Reds (28-17), and Brewers and Phillies (28-18).The big losers were the A's (14-32), White Sox (14-27, unfinished), and Royals (16-30). Basically, NL teams dominated the top while AL teams dominated the bottom, with the middle ground being split roughly equally.

*The IL schedule should more accurately be termed "less unbalanced", because there remains a home/away imbalance in each pairing. But it's a lot more balanced than it was.

edit: r/trovador1 points out in the comments that there are two other IL makeup games this weekend that I had overlooked, and so the minimum victory margin is therefore 357-327.

#

TIL: Although Jose Canseco won MVP unanimously in the first ever 40/40 season, none of the other three even received a first-place vote

#

Disclaimer: This post should not be seen as anti-Acuña propaganda; it is merely a trend which I found interesting.

In 1996, Barry Bonds finished 5th in MVP voting, as National League voters unanimously chose Padres third baseman Ken Caminiti. In 1998, Alex Rodriguez finished 9th - not even the highest on his own team (Ken Griffey Jr. finished 4th). First place votes were split between Derek Jeter, Nomar Garciaparra, and Juan Gonzalez. Finally, in 2006, Alfonso Soriano finished 6th place in MVP voting with the Nationals - far behind first-place vote recipients Albert Pujols and Ryan Howard.

#

In his last 8 starts he recorded a 1.88 ERA and 12.4 K/9. He had a 0.39 ERA and 1.08 FIP in his last 4 outings.

He’s a dark horse for AL Cy Young next season.

Jones, 33, was listed as being taken into custody Friday on two counts of violating a temporary protective order related to domestic violence.

Las Vegas Justice Court records indicated he had posted bond, though he was still listed as in custody at Clark County Detention Center as of Friday morning. The next court hearing is scheduled for Dec. 4.

All 64 Scenarios for the AL West and AL Wild Card Charted

#

If the Astros go 1-1 in their next 2 games, the Mariners can only either win their division, or miss out on the playoffs entirely

#

If the Mariners go 2-0 and the Astros go 1-1, Houston, Seattle, and Texas will all have 89 wins. The division would be decided by each team's H2H against the AL West, where Seattle has the edge.

If the Mariners go 1-1 and the Astros go 1-1, Seattle misses the playoffs by virtue of having fewer wins than both Houston and Texas.

In any scenario where Seattle and Texas are tied for a wildcard or the division, Seattle has a worse H2H against the Rangers and would take the lesser spot.

Basically, there's a world in which the Mariners go 2-0 and either win the division, or miss out on the playoffs.

#

After starting 13-0 and 27-6, the Tampa Bay Rays will fail to win 100 games in 2023

#

This is not a dig at the rays but rather a reminder of how hard it is to win 100 games by just having a hot start. The Yankees were even better through the first half of 2022 and still lost 63, which is tampas loss total with 2 games to play. Obviously their pitching staff being microwaved on high for 45 minutes didn’t help. Never allow yourself to feel joy in April. Moral of the story

Taiwanese baseball fans boo and heckle pitcher for allegedly dodging responsibility to pitch for the national team

#

The pitcher in question is Kai-Wei Lin (who was in the dbacks system 2016-22). He was listed as responsible by Taiwan's baseball authority to participate in the country's national team, as he did not participate in the domestic league (CPBL) draft. Opting out of the responsibility list means the need to enroll in the Taiwanese military, as the country has conscription.

Lin was originally included in the roster for Taiwan's Asian Games team, but was hurt and put on the IL. The national team thus swapped him out for another player. He however came out of the IL before the national team departed for Asian Games matches, and came out pitching for his CPBL team the day right after Team Taiwan's departure.

Local fans are furious at him seemingly dodging the responsibility to play for the country, booing and heckling him every time he took the mound. The chant depicted in the video is telling to get drafted, this time by Taiwan's Army instead.

#

Orioles win 100 games for first time since 1980

#

I was an O's fan that year and remember it well. For one thing, we didn't make the postseason, as we finished 3 games behind the 103-win Yankees in the AL East.

Also, the entire MLB postseason took just two weeks. Back then there were four teams involved, and the two league division winners played best-of-five series to determine the pennant winner.

Of the remaining 64 different possible outcomes for the jays, only 2 scenarios result in elimination. (Jays win 1, sea wins 3, astros win 2) AND, jays win 0, sea wins 2 and houston wins 2. (Rangers eliminated with 3 losses, 2 jays wins, and 2 astros wins)

Top 3 Players Getting the Ball By Down

#

In 3 games so far Haason Reddick has 1 tackle and 1 QB Hit. Last year he finished 4th in DPOY voti

#

Last year Haason Reddick was a monster including playoffs he had 58 tackles,19.5 sacks (most in nfl),13 TFL and 32 QB hits

So far his only recorded stats were 1 tackle and 1 QB hit

Haason was one of my prediction to win DPOY so I am very surprised
