Scherzer's getting rekt.

lol... that's awesome.

What's puzzling is why did they have him ranked 9th with an FV of 40? Longenhagen's toes were stepped on, imo. He loves Bichette. Longenhagen on Bichette:

Longenhagen, rules!

Adam Eaton's good at beisbol.

I've got his powder blue ASG jersey...

Preston Tucker touched up Scherzer for a 3 run shot... Scherzer got a knock and picked up a rib-eye steak.

Yeah he's supposed to start tomorrow, right?

The Diamondbacks placed Lamb (shoulder) on the 10-day disabled list Tuesday with an AC joint sprain, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

lol

Yeah this weather coming through suxxxxxxxxxx

Royals/Tigers PPD Other games in danger of a rain delay/PPD... Rays/Yanks Phils/Mets Twins/Pirates M's/Giants

Where's Travis? lol

Man our schedule's freaking tough this month, if we can stay around .500, even with a victory tonight, I'd be quite happy, anything better would be gravy.

Good point, but I'm pretty sure Solarte can play a passable SS. It'll likely be Ngoepe, as you say.

He wasn't aware of that tradition at first, lol. By Maria Guardado MLB.com @mi_guardado ANAHEIM -- All around him, the fans roared. But in the dugout, he found silence. Tradition cedes to no one, not even a 23-year-old rookie sensation. And so, Shohei Ohtani was received with indifference from his Angels teammates after crushing his first career home run in his first at-bat at Angel Stadium during a 13-2 win over the Indians on Tuesday night. "I didn't really know about this whole tradition, but I kind of figured it out once I came back to the dugout," Ohtani said through an interpreter. "Everyone was giving me the silent treatment." Ignored by his teammates, Ohtani congratulated himself by high-fiving a line of invisible people. After he went over to hug Ian Kinsler, the ruse finally broke. Ohtani was soon engulfed in a collective embrace from the Angels, who advised the prodigious slugger to take a curtain call. He obliged, climbing the dugout steps and raising his helmet to 35,007 frenzied fans.

A s*** tonne better, it plays. Donaldson halts health concerns as Blue Jays keep rolling Shi Davidi @shidavidi April 3, 2018, 11:00 PM TORONTO – Three pitches into things Tuesday night Yoan Moncada sent a dribbler right along the third-base line that Josh Donaldson fielded and quickly relayed across the diamond, his solid throw to first coming just as umpire Jordan Baker ruled the ball foul. By design or not, the toss on a dead play gave the third baseman a chance to show that he had enough in the tank to handle whatever came his way in the field. And he did just that in a 14-5 pounding of the Chicago White Sox, recording three defensive assists while adding a two-run homer and a laser-beam RBI single off the left-field wall. “I knew it was pretty close and I figured, hey, this is a perfect opportunity for me to just let one go,” Donaldson said of the grounder in the first. “It ended up being foul so it didn’t really matter what happened, but I just wanted to get a gauge on it. It was nice.” Donaldson was back at third base for the first time since opening day, when what the team has described as a case of dead arm left him struggling to make throws across the diamond. A pair of issue-free throwing sessions Sunday and Monday suggested he had turned the corner and while he wasn’t slinging darts the way he usually does – he estimated his arm strength at 85-90 per cent – Tuesday’s performance offered something to build on. “Not every throw that we make is max effort, you actually do not want to be max effort (all the time),” said Donaldson, saying he learned from Troy Tulowitzki to be smarter in picking spots to really unleash across the diamond. “You want to have the ability to get there but most of the throws we’re making are not everything that we have. I feel very comfortable in changing arm angles and I do feel like if I need to put a little extra hair on one that I do have that ability. I feel good about where I’m at right now.” Donaldson’s return to the field defensively created more flexibility for manager John Gibbons, who put Kendrys Morales, who doesn’t really have a spot on the field, back at designated hitter. “I wasn’t worried, to be honest with you, about anything,” Gibbons said of Donaldson’s throwing. “He made the plays tonight. Put that behind you.”

Faaaack... play Solarte at SS... By Gregor Chisholm MLB.com @gregorMLB 12:18 AM ET TORONTO -- The suddenly red-hot Aledmys Diaz was removed from Tuesday night's 14-5 victory over the White Sox in the sixth inning because of back spasms and he is considered day to day. Diaz said following the game that he sustained the injury after hitting a two-run homer in the third inning. It was his fourth extra-base hit over his previous three games and marked the first time in his career he homered in back-to-back contests. The Blue Jays don't expect the back issue to become a serious injury and there is no initial expectation that he will be forced to the disabled list. Instead, the Blue Jays might look to start Gift Ngoepe at shortstop in Wednesday's series finale before the club enjoys on off-day on Thursday. "Just a little back spasm I had after I hit the homer and it just got worse and worse as the game kept going," Diaz said through an interpreter. "We'll see how it feels tomorrow." Before coming out of the game, Diaz had gone 3-for-3 with three RBIs and a pair of runs scored. Four of his five hits this season have gone for extra bases and his 0-for-9 skid at the start of the year quickly has become a distant memory. The Blue Jays can only hope the back issue becomes a distant memory, too, because with Troy Tulowitzki currently on the 60-day disabled list, Toronto can ill afford to lose more depth up the middle. Diaz did not seem too concerned about the injury after the game. He conceded the soreness increased as the game progressed, but he expects to be back in the lineup later this week. "It's part of the game," Diaz said. "I feel great mentally, so that's what's really important for me. Hopefully it's not too bad so I can keep rolling."

It takes a whole, minute... where'd you find the HR% on runs scored stat?

Lazer!

Jesus man... lol.

Stroman and Sanchez, hopefully.
