👀 Notable Plays & Moments
💬 Editor’s Take

A daily dose of opinion, analysis, and mild overreaction.

I will never understand why a team like the Red Sox would not be promoting Roman Anthony. David Hamilton should never be starting and Trevor Story should either go on the IL or move to a utility role.

Mets struggle vs the White Sox but rally late. Juan Soto continues to look checked out but finds a way to impact the game late. Mets also showed a furry convention on the broadcast? (Link SFW)

Willy Adames does not look like the answer in SF. He is struggling offensively and does not provide much lift on the defensive side of the ball.

Zach Neto looks like a legit all-star. If this guy was on any other team he would receive the recognition he deserves. He is hitting .289/.331/.563, 9 HR, 20 RBI, 8 SB
