After one week, the braves look like the greatest team ever assembled and Ronald Acuna is going to win mvp 

The Braves are 0-2 since this and Acuna has gone 0-8

This is good news for them.

That Maroon team was stacked. 

[Stradling]

1884 St Louis Maroons finished their season 94-19-1. When you look up that team most of their players have question marks after their names, as if to say, “we think they played for that team”. 

[Stradling]

They started the year 20-0.

Currently Urshela and Renfroe are doing slightly better than last season. Drury is not. Two out of three isn't bad.

7-1, Rays, 8th inning.

They just keep winning. Amazing.

from Twitter:

The Tampa Bay Rays have hit 29 home runs through their first 11 games of the season. That’s tied for the most ever through a team’s first 11 games since the 2000 St. Louis Cardinals who had Mark McGwire and Jim Edmonds. #RaysUp

Looks like the Rangers just lost Seager for a bit. Pulled a hamstring rounding 1B

Rays are 12-0 now after beating Boston 9-7. It's the most runs they've allowed in any game so far.

Before yesterday they had only given up a total of 20 runs.

Rays are 12-0?

I didn’t realize Kevin Cash has a Mohawk.

[fan_since79]

Rays we're down to Boston 3-1 until they scored 7 runs in the 5th inning.

13 straight wins now to open the season. 

[fan_since79]

highest run diff in 1st 13 games of season, MLB history:

1884 St. Louis Maroons: +115

1884 New York Gothams: +73

2023 Rays: +71

[m0nkey]

Yankees have given up back to back to back home runs and are losing 9-0 in the top of the first

You need to have a subscription. They're offering a two-month free trial for most people right now, though.  And even if you've already burned up a free trial, it's only $6.99 for a month and there's a few really solid shows and movies that are worth watching.

The San Francisco Giants and right-hander Logan Webb have agreed to a five-year, $90-million contract extension, the club announced Friday.

The deal will keep the 26-year-old under team control through the 2028 season.

Webb will earn $8 million next season, $12 million in 2025, $23 million in 2026 and 2027, and $24 million in 2028. The deal will buy out three of his free-agent years.
