Around the AL West 2023

The White Sox aren’t history making bad like OAK, but they’re very bad.

There goes the tie

No help from the White Sox.

After we sent them our 5th best prospect for an over-the-hill reliever. Shameful.

I dunno.

Being 17.5 games back when your Division leader is 1 game over .500 is pretty goddamn terrible for the first week of August.

Right now, Fangraphs projects the A’s to finish with a 53-109. Slightly better than the 2013 Astros 51-111. They have to work harder to make some history. Come on A’s suck more!

That’s optimistic when they’re currently in a 45 win pace.

Putting it in perspective - they’d have to manage 23-30 the rest of the way. I don’t see that happening at all.

Apparently Josh Jung broke his thumb today. That’s not an easy one to come back from in a timely manner.

Hate to see a promising young player get hurt.

But I’m not going to cry for the Rangers having injury luck catch up with them.

Sure the Rangers have a winning streak but surely they’ll cool off with…

Oakland?

Fuck.

I watched them play with the Giants like a cat toy this weekend.

A’s managed to get a win vs the Rangers today, chance to get a game back tonight with a win.

Angels lost the no hitter in the 8th but kept the shutout and beat Texas 2-0. Astros finally pick one up on the Rangers.

Word is the Angels are calling up their 2023 first round pick after 21 games in the minors. If that doesn’t show Ohtani they’re serious, I’m not sure what will.

Fixed it for you

Brew Crew won today striking out 18 of some team wearing some combination of Rice Owls and a beer league softball team uniforms. Not sure who it was, but it was fun to watch.
