    Thank you Detroit. Early in the 2017 season the Tigers rejected a trade offer from the Astros that would have sent Alex Bregman to Detroit for pitcher Sandy Baez. Baez is now on the IL.

    Justin Verlander just became only the 7th pitcher in record 200 strikeouts in a season for the 9th time. Except for Roger Clemens the others are all in the HOF. Nolan Ryan with 15 is the uncatchable leader.

    Leave it to Bieber

    Indians pitcher Shane Bieber's Topps baseball card was mistakenly printed with the name Justin Bieber.

    The fricking Dodgers pull another lucky W out of their asses. Oh well, that leaves the Padres in the cellar just behind the Rockies.

    Damn! For just a few hours the Astros had the best record in baseball and WS home field.

    You get to face Greinke tomorrow in the JuiceBox. How many times have the Rockies faced him when he was with Arizona this season?
