Probably missing the actual conversation but Kyle Harrison to the IL with forearm tightness.

Woah. Sounds like a great day for me to go to my first Iowa cubs game.

He walked off gingerly, was a pretty easy double so it wasn't like some awkward slide. Seemed ready to go back out to the field (was on the top step) when they stopped and conferred and then threw Dean in there instead. Hoping it was just a bunch of caution given the 3-2 lead with 6 outs to go.

Good series win

He blocked the back foot again. I guess you can just do that.

They’re going to get out of it but what thoroughly unimpressive defense this inning

I’m not going to pretend to know this rule but his foot definitely ‘blocked’ Nico’s foot from making contact with the base

Damnit

Ok ok

lol that's why baseball is the best/worst. he squares up that ball just a smidge more and PCA is out by 15 feet at home, everyone is trashing berry, suzuki, probably still bregman, counsell for the concept.

lol Pete either barrels his pull fly balls over the fence or hits them so poorly they land in front of the RF. in my litany of his rankings across baseball, i made sure to omit his .487(!!!!) BABIP since June 1.

'Thielbar getting loose' Did we find another Thielbar?

Yeah it wasn't a perfect analogy. The USMNT can't go out and buy actual elite players. Pulisic had a bad game but the idea that he'd be, even in form, the best player on a semi final, much less a championship team, is laughable.

Yeah I went down a rabbit hole like a month ago and the people that follow the Angels closely (which, why) will say he's 100% not going anywhere. Would be a fascinating trade though. His contract was super underwater going into this year with all the injuries, but he's stayed healthy and been incredible. He's, I believe, got Bregman's exact contract the rest of the way, which is a big load to carry especially when Nico and PCA kick in. You'd almost consider throwing more prospect value than necessary towards the Angels to get them to pick up some of the contract. But it solves a corner outfield spot and basically locks up the offense for the next few years (as being really, really good), so whatever resources are left would just be 100% pitching.
