I like it

Damn I hate the Dodgers as much as anyone but Joe Kelly became a legend tonight 

[ScottT]

Dodgers fans hated Joe Kelly last year. I guess that has changed... until he starts pitching poorly again.

He's got good stuff.  Just can't put it together for a long period of time.

Awww,  did the poor widdle Cheatin Asterisks get their feelings hurt?

I thought I read that they couldn’t opt back in.

7 inning games are lame. They’re borderline fake games just to collect a check. Do the 2 extra innings per game put them more at risk? Man up professional athletes.

Has the human race gone completely soft lately?

If they want to "maximize" players' health, just go one time through the batting order and call it a game. Ties are worth one point and wins two points. We wouldn't want any of these babies to feel the least amount of discomfort.

Yelich is 1-23 (.043)

Would much rather have a 30 man roster through the season, then something as lame as 7 inning games.

The 30 man would resolve the use of pitchers issue. 

[ScottT]

Two games are 0-0 in the 8th.  Total of 12 hits.

Playing 16 innings on the same day instead of 18 will save lives.

Very Yogi Berra-ish right there.

First of many top prospects who will be called up in the near future, now that the extra year of service time window is over

Is he still better than Trout?

[Angel Oracle]

LOL at Anthony Rizzo being HBP five times already

Funny, I didn't think the Asterisks had acquired him.

Did the pitcher that hit him get a 30 game suspension?
