Summary

Breaking News: Jared's herbal cigarettes are here and his journey to become the face of the herbal cig industry starts now. Albert Pujols hit his 695th home run and is now five away from 700. Zac Gallen hasn't given up a run in 41 2/3 innings pitched and we wonder if he's on the move to a contender in 2023. The Dodgers are straight up boring at this point because they win every game. Goldschmidt is in the triple crown conversation which prompts us to discuss if the qualifiers should be changed. The Twins caught the Guardians and their bullpen looks like it could be a problem for teams in the playoffs. Dallas Keuchel has been DFA'd for the THIRD time this year so he's inevitably going to end up with the Dodgers. The Yankees lose Benintendi to injury and are still scuffling despite Judge hitting a home run every game. The Seattle Mariners are in the midst of a 47-19 stretch since June 21st and are comfortably the third best team in the American League. The Mets lost two of three to the Nationals which brings their NL East lead down to one game. Joey still doesn't have the balls to say the Braves will win the division, though. Dylan Cease was PISSED after throwing a complete game shutout because he lost his no-hit bid in the 9th inning. Enjoy!
