May 10th-May 16th

May 10th, 2029: We get today off, and will head home to prepare for three with the Phillies. We'll see Chad Afghani (2-4, 7.75 ERA), Cullen Dana (1-4, 3.77 ERA), and Forrest Whitley (4-2, 5.58 ERA).

May 11th, 2029: We opened the series with the Phillies in a packed Marlins stadium with C.J. Jorgensen (2-2, 3.68 ERA, 1.00 WHIP) facing Chad Afghani (2-4, 7.75 ERA, 1.75 WHIP), who's pitched much better as of late. We put up the runs, and took the opener 9-1.

Jorgensen went 7 innings with 2 innings with a run, 3 walks, and 5 strikeouts. Ignacio Hinojos tossed 2 innings with a hit and 3 strikeouts.

Chris Reid was a perfect 3-for-3 with 2 runs, 2 RBI's, a walk, double, and homer. Rogelio Maldonado was 3-for-4 with a double, 2 RBI's, and his first big league home run. Mac Horvath was 2-for-3 with a run scored, RBI, double, and walk. Juan Simental was 2-for-5 with 2 runs, a double, and steal. Gregorio Alvarenga was 2-for-5 with a run scored. Jackson Miller was 2-for-4 with a run scored, double, and 2 RBI's.

May 12th, 2029: We looked to win our 4th game in a row with Devon Peterson (3-1, 3.48 ERA, 1.40 WHIP) taking on Cullen Dana (1-4, 3.77 ERA, 1.19 WHIP). The pitching was beautiful, and we shut them out 2-0.

Peterson went 7 with 2 hits, a walk, and 4 strikeouts. Luis Alcantra (0.2) and Gene Hall (0.1) split the 8th to get holds. Both guys got a strikeout. Chad Scoles struck out 1 in the 9th to earn the save.

May 14th, 2029: We dropped to third in the Power Rankings. At 27-12, we have the same record as the red-hot Brewers (2nd) who have won 7 straight and 9 of 10. The Orioles have a remarkable 32-7 record, have won 6 straight, and 9 of thier last 10 as well.

We opened the series at Grean American Ballpark with Luis Ardon (4-2, 4.15 ERA, 1.36 WHIP) taking on former Marlin Patrick Raby (2-2, 3.86 ERA, 1.29 WHIP). The Reds played much better, and beat us 9-3 to take the opener.

Ardon went just 2 innings with 8 hits, 5 runs, a walk, and 2 strikeouts. Ignacio Hinojos tossed 2.1 perfect frames with 5 strikeout. C.J. LaFever went an inning with 3 hits, 3 runs (2 earned), and 2 walks. Josh Brown tossed 2 innings with a hit, run, and 5 strikeouts.

May 15th, 2029: White Sox righty Mike Vasil is out for the year with a torn rotator cuff. He struck out 18 in 17 with a 4.24 ERA.

We looked to even the series with Pat Saitta (4-2, 2.22 ERA, 1.17 WHIP) taking on Estevan Aguire (6-2, 1.44 ERA, 0.72 WHIP) in an elite ace-off. Not going to lie, if I ever have moeny and Aguirre is a Free Agent, I will give him whatever he wants. We managed to get him out after 3, and took the middle game with a 5-3 win.

Saitta got the win, 5.1 innings with 4 hits, 2 runs, 4 walks, and 7 strikeouts. Josh Brown, Jake Yearick, Luis Alcantra, and Gene Hall got holds while Chad Scoles got the save. Somehow, Alcantra and Hall both walked 3, but didn't giv eup runs. Yearick allowed a run in 0.1 innings with a strikeout. He hit a batter who scored later.

Jackson Miller was 3-for-4 with 2 runs, 4 RBI's, and 2 homers. Jarred Kelenic was 2-for-4 with a run scored. Noah Smith was 2-for-5 with a run scored and double. Mac Horvath was 2-for-5. Gregorio Alvarenga was 1-for-3 with a hit by pitch. Chris Reid was 1-for-3 with a double, walk, and RBI.

May 16th, 2029: The Twins will be without closer Mike Kilroy for the rest of the year with a torn flexor tendon in his elbow. He had a 1.50 ERA with 2 saves in 18 innings and struck out 21.

Current Twin Giancarlo Stanton announced his would be his last season. With 746 homers, he needs 26 to tie Bonds' career record. It seems like a tough task for the 39-year-old, who has just 1 in 11 games.

We looked to finish the series with a win, as C.J. Jorgensen (3-2, 3.55 ERA, 0.96 WHIP) took on Mike Kugns (0-3, 6.31 ERA, 1.29 WHIP). Down 1-0 in the bottom of the 5th, the Reds got 8 runs. We fought back, with 3 in the 6th and 7 in the 7th to take the finale 11-8.

Reds LF Ramon Flores hit his 300th career homer in the losing effort. He has a career .257 average with 891 RBI's in 1,647 games.

Jorgensen went 4.2 innings with 4 htis, 3 runs, 2 walks, and 5 strikeouts. C.J. LaFever didn't get an out, allowing 2 hits and 2 runs. Jarred Kelenic allowed 3 hits and runs with a strikeout in 0.2 innings. Pat Riley got the win, 0.2 innings with 2 walks and a strikoeut. Alcantra and Yearick earned holds, and Scoles got the save.

Juan Ramirez was 2-for-5 with 2 runs, 2 RBI's, and a homer. Noah Smith was 1-for-3 with a run scored, RBI, walk, and steal. Rogelio Maldonado was 1-for-5 with a solo hover.

Mets starter Pablo Ochoa tossed a 3-hit shutout in a 6-0 win over the Cardinals. He walked and struck out two.

Mike Trout hit his 2,500th career hit. The 37-year-old is a shell of his former self, and has a career .286/.406/.553 line with 590 homers and 1,570 RBI's. He really hasn;t had a "Troutlike" year since 2023, but was the best in baseball from 2012-2021.

We're headed home for three with Arizona. We'll see Cole Stringer (0-3, 4.55 ERA), Marius Balandis (1-2, 4.32 ERA), and Tyrese Comier (2-0, 3.55 ERA).
