Not bad, but at what point in the season will the Cubs trade Happ to the Braves?

Lol, I think they’ll send him to ATL right after Teheran throws a complete game winner @ Wrigley. Straight up swap. Cubs need the pitching.

Good prediction even tho the cubs broadcaster Jim Deshaies called both before the game yesterday

Yankees win their first 10 games and end April with 5 or less losses.

John Sterling changes his "cool" catch phrase for when Stanton hits a homerun.

What’s your bold Prediction?

Really shouldn’t be bold but with how people seem to be about the Brewers this year, Brewers to finish .500

National broadcasters continue their vendetta against all things remotely analytic based and actively go out of their way to criticize anything other than good ol' boy baseball thinkin'

Man, Odor hates Blue Jays.

Leafs win the Stanley cup behind Austin Matthews 17 goals

Sixers take the Warriors to 5 games before bowing out as Simmons and Embiid assert themselves both as top 10 talents - KD wins finals MVP again

Baseball continues to be a 3 outcomes sport and still is great, but is diminished by shifts, launch angles and fewer balls in play and will result in a record being set for longest stretch without a ball in play (im not googling to see what that is but consider it broken)

Some players will make me really happy. Some will totally piss me off. Half the managers in the league will enrage me.

That is about as bold as a bowl of corn flakes, no fruit.

Gabe Kapler is not getting the job done..... Phillies made a huge mistake not keeping Pete McKannon....
Great move in game 1 - pull Nola out of game with a 5-0 lead and only having thrown 68 pitches -- Phillies lost

Two new ones:

Felipe Rivero earns fewer than 5 saves

Pirates acquire Andrew McCutcheon as a rental player in late July, tied for lead in NL Central
