Summary

Congratulations to the Oakland Athletics for getting their 10th win two weeks ago. The A’s are having a historically bad season and it just keeps getting worse. Today we’re taking a look at the numbers and putting in perspective just how bad the 2023 A’s are compared to the worst teams in the history of baseball. José Abreu also sprinted around the bases after a home run which led to a social media feud postgame. Other topics include Aaron Judge’s resurgence since coming back from injury, Michael Soroka returning to the Braves after not pitching since 2020, the state of the Los Angeles Angels, Ben Joyce throwing 106mph with control issues, Craig Kimbrel’s 400th save and where that leaves him in the HOF discussion, Tatís Jr.’s return to the Bronx, and more!
