May was somehow even better than April- we won 19 games and we're now 38-15, seven games up in the NL East. Luis Estrada had a 25-game hitting streak and won NL Player of the Month after hitting .459 with six home runs and 26 RBI. His contract is up after this year, and while I'd love to resign him, he's asking for nine years and $600M, which may be a bit too rich for us. Carlos Jose Romero continues to lock down the ninth inning and now has an 0.36 ERA. Luke Leto and Jose Altuve have both suffered through injuries, but our infield depth is quite good this year and the offense has just kept on rolling. We swept a series against Oakland by a combined score of 34-7, and one against Minnesota by 26-3. We actually beat the Rangers in a game that Jarred Kelenic was the starting pitcher- probably not a great idea on Texas's part.

Around the league:
-Chad Workman (CWS) won the AL Player of the Month again, but unfortunately will miss three weeks after he was attacked by a wild animal at the zoo and broke his foot. Days off can be dangerous.
-Ozzie Albies (SEA) got his 2500th career hit.
-Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (TOR) and Ian Happ (COL) got their 400th home runs.
-Tyrese Cooperwood (PHI) pitched a perfect game.
