June 5th, 2026: After the draft, we got to play the Cubs at Wrigley field. Devon Peterson (4-1, 3.96 ERA, 1.34 WHIP) faced Zach Arrianese (0-4, 10.07 ERA, 2.03 WHIP). We couldn't score, and the Cubs shut us out 6-0.

Peterson lasted just 2.2 innings, allowing 3 hits, 4 runs, and 2 walks while striking out 4. Ignacio Hinojos went 2.1 innings with 3 hits, a run, walk, and 5 strikeouts. Danny Niewald went 2.1 innings with 2 hits, a run, walk, and 4 strikeouts.

Isaac Nunez was 1-for-3 with a double. Juan Ramirez went 2-for-3.

June 6th, 2026: 1st Rounder Curt Walsh agreed to a $500,000 bonus.

The Mariners will be without LF Mike Spooner for the year with post-concussion syndrome. He was hitting .425/.511/.600 in 40 at bats this year.

Blue Jays righty Jean-Louis Vautrin tore his labrum and will miss the rest of the year. In 8 starts this year, he was 2-3 with a 5.30 ERA and 1.40 WHIP.

A little trade action as well: The Braves acquired RHP Mashiaro Tanaka and 1B Luis Guerra from the Reds for RHP Whip Mifflen and LHP Lucas Gordon. I really like this trade for the Braves.

I also outrighted LHP Luis Delgado to AA.

We needed to get back on track with Jordan Montgomery (7-1, 2.48 ERA, 0.96 WHIP) facing Pablo Ochoa (6-1, 2.82 ERA, 1.19 WHIP). Former Marlin Kyle Lewis hit a walk-off two run homer off a Jorge Moya slider and the Cubs won 5-3.

Lazaro Armenteros and Brennan Malone left with injuries. Malone was diagnosed with a strained shoulder, and will head to the DL for about 3-4 weeks.

Monty pitched fine, 4.2 innings with 5 hits, an unearned run, 3 walks, and 4 strikeouts. Malone allowed a run in an inning with a hit and strikeout. Hinojos allowed a run in 1.1 innings with 2 hits and 3 strikeouts. Moya pitched 1.2 innings with 2 walks, a hit, 2 runs, and a strikeout.

Cole Roederer was 2-for-4 with a double, run scored, 2 RBI's, and a steal. Armenteros was 1-for-2 with a walk, run scored, and steal before leaving with injury. Jarred Kelenic was 1-for-4 with a double and run scored.

June 7th, 2026: I activated Seth Beer from the diasbled list.

The Padres will be without LHP Adrian Morejon for the year with a torn flexor tendon in his elbow. He had a 2.12 ERA and 0.91 WHIP in 34 innings with 30 strikeouts and just 6 walks.

I traded the recently DFA'd Lewis Brinson to the Mets for my former minor leaguer 1B Ashton McGee.

We needed to avoid the sweep with Steve Paustian (3-4, 4.91 ERA, 1.45 WHIP) taking on German Marquez (2-2, 6.23 ERA, 1.25 WHIP). The game froze midway through, but eventually it loaded and we won 9-4. Thankfully...

Jarred Kelenic and Hyo-jin Yaung both left with day-to-day injuries that will not involve DL time.

Paustian went 4, allowing 5 hits, 4 runs, 2 walks, and he struck out 3. Danny Niewald got the win, 2 innings with a hit and strike out. Ernesto Estrella and Ben Popkin pitched the 7th and got holds before we increased our lead.

Kelenic was 3-for-5 with a double, run scored, 2 RBi's, and a steal. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. was 2-for-4 with a walk and three run homer. Jhon Solarte was 1-for-5, but had a two run triple. Cole Roederer was 2-for-5 with a run scored. Deshawn Hardamon was 1-for-4 with a walk and run scored.

Nationals 3B Tanner Kohlheep was 5-for-5 in a 12-8 win over the Dodgers. Astros 1B Yordan Alvarez was 5-for-5 in an 8-5 win over the Royals.

The big news, however, took place between Boston and New York. Red Sox SP Aldredo Rivera was brilliant, walking just 1 batther and striking out 12 in a no-hitter! The Red Sox cruised to a 6-0 win, and Rivera etched his name into the record books with this performance.

We're off to Pittsburgh where we look to get back on track. We'll face Ken Haugen (1-4, 5.40 ERA), Jonathan Kearns (2-2, 4.41 ERA), Mitch Keller (3-7, 4.14 ERA), and Sean Geise (4-5, 2.82 ERA).

June 8th, 2026: Armenteros broke a bone in his elbow, and will be out for the year. As an imprending free agent, he has likely played his last game as a Marlin. I recalled Greg Walston from AAA.

The Orioles will be without CL Nick Burdi for the rest of the year with a partially torn ulnar collateral ligament. He was 1-0 with a 2.97 ERA and he saved 13 games.

We dropped to 8th in the power rankings, and at 34-25 sit in 3rd place.

We opened the series at PNC Park with Mike Soroka (1-4, 5.06 ERA, 1.59 WHIP) taking on Ken Haugen (1-4, 5.40 ERA, 1.37 WHIP). It was a close one, but we were edged out 2-1. Yay...

Soroka pitched well, 6.1 innings with 4 hits, a run, 3 walks, and 3 strike outs. Yaung got the loss, allowing a run with a hit and strikeout.

Juan Ramirez was 1-for-4 with a solo homer. Deshawn Hardamon was 1-for-3 with a double. Dewitt MacGregor was 1-for-2 with 2 walks. Vlad Jr. was 1-for-4 with a steal.

Carlos Correa hit his 300th career homer as the White Sox beat the Rays 17-2. In 1,592 career games, he's a career .299/.370/.513 hitter with 1,035 RBI's and 1,785 career hits.

June 9th, 2026: We needed a win, with Jake Florence (3-2, 3.14 ERA, 1.65 WHIP) taking on Jonathan Kearns (2-2, 4.41 ERA, 1.50 WHIP). We got three in the first, but that was all, and we lost 5-3...

Florence only went 3 innnings, allowing 4 hits, 3 runs, and a walk with 3 strikeouts. Greg Walston got the loss, allowing a hit that later scored to the only batter he faced. Estrella was chaged with 2 hits, a run, and a walk in 1.2 innings with 2 strikeouts.

Seth Beer was 1-for-4 with a three run homer in the first. Vlad was 2-for-4 with a run scored. Jhon Solarte was 2-for-4.

Now isn't this crazy. Just a few days after the Rivera no-hitter, Tigers SP Michael Fulmer tossed a no-hitter in a 2-0 win over the Red Sox. He walked 3 and struck out just 2, but Fulmer didn't allow a single hit.

June 10th, 2026: 2nd Rounder Shawn Perryman decided not to sign, and will head to college.

The Brewers will be without former 4th Overall Pick Andy Hippler for the year and part of next year with a ruptured ulnar collateral ligament. He tossed just 3.1 innings in his big league career, allowing 5 hits, 2 runs, 2 walks, and he struck out 4, but Hippler is one of the top young relief prospects in the leafue.

We needed a win to at least make the split possible, with Devon Peterson (4-2, 4.36 ERA, 1.36 WHIP) taking on Mitch Keller (3-7, 4.14 ERA, 1.12 WHIP). Considering we have every positional advantage, we should win. And thankfully, we crushed them 12-1 with help from 10 runs in the last two innings.

Peterson tossed 6 innings with 4 hits, a run, 2 walks, and 8 strikeouts. Jorge Moya got the hold, 2 innings with 3 hits and a strikeout.

Juan Ramirez was 2-for-4 with a sac-fly, homer, 2 runs, and 4 RBI's. Thomas Dillard was 2-for-5 with a double, homer, 2 runs, and 5 RBI's. Deshawn Hardamon was 2-for-5 with a three run homer. Jhon Solarte was 2-for-3 with a hit by pitch, walk, run scored, and steal. Jarred Kelenic was 1-for-4 with a double, walk, and run scored. Jordy Barley was 1-for-2 with a double and run scored as a pinch hitter in the 9th.

Rangers SP Ryan Dease tossed a 8-hit shutout in a 6-0 win over the Nationals.

Giants 3B Manny Machado hit his 400th career homer. The 33-year-old is a career ,279/.334/.481 hitter with 1,198 RBI's in 2,089 games.

June 11th, 2026: Fan vote update: Dillard ranks second for catchers. Vladdy third for third. Quivers is fourth for relievers.

We needed to finish the series with a win, and Jordan Montgomery (7-1, 2.31 ERA, 1.01 WHIP) taking on Sean Geise (4-5, 2.82 ERA, 1.51 WHIP). We got 4 in the 1st, but it wasn't enough, and we lost 6-5. Wow this was a great road trip...

Luckily, we get tomorrow off...

Oh yeah, and Montgomery left with a sore elbow, and will head to the DL for most likely just 10 days. He allowed 8 hits and 6 runs in 3 innnings. The rest of the pen tossed 5 innings with 6 hits.

Thomas Dillard was 1-for-4 with a grand slam in the first. Isaac Nunez was 1-for-4 with a solo homer. Deshawn Hardamon was 1-for-4 with a double. Jarred Kelenic was 1-for-3 with a walk and run scored.

After the game, I recalled Marc Bjork from AAA.

Orioles SS Logan Davidson was 5-for-7 in a 15-5 win over the Yankees.

Well, we have just a 1 game lead for the 2nd Wild Card, 3.5 games behind Philly for home field, and 4.5 behind Washington for the division. It's been a rough stretch, but we can head home where we are 19-11 this year.
