Oops, I did it again. Sorry, but I’ve wrenched my back again. It is very uncomfortable sitting at the computer. I’m spending most of the day on my back. Hopefully, this will only last a couple days like last time.

Give it a try for the back.

Medina heard guys were offering him in trades, so he pitched poorly. He wants to stay here.
Numbers aren’t great for Jhailyn, but I’d consider this a good year for the young big man in a tough league for a young hitter.
This is the second time Bohm has exited a game due to being hit by a pitch. I’m going to take this as a sign that he is the second coming of Chase Utley in Kris Bryant’s body.
Hope he’s OK.
The GCL teams are very intriguing. They are both hitting well and pitching well. The West team leads the league in BA with the East team 4th. The West team Ks the 2nd least in the league and the East is 4th least. The West leads in SBs but has only 1 HR YTD (16 games). It looks like the Phils split the guys pretty evenly. They are close in nearly every offensive category. If you need to tell them apart, the West has a lot more speed but less power and the East team is the opposite.
On the pitching side, The East team is 4th in ERA. West is 6th. East and West have nearly the same WHIP. The teams have the same Ks and the BBs are close. The West team has given up a lot more HRs but both teams have similar similar ERs. Again, the Phils matched up these teams evenly.
Anyone know how hard Tirado is throwing these days? K #s have been decent but not eye-popping this year.
Feel better Jim.
Yes Jim hope all is well. Get too a good Back Doc.
Steward pitching a 2hitter again he’s really showing a need to advance.
Geez Jim. We in Ca need your thorough input on these games! JUsT Kidding, take care
