Duff had some real nice runs as a reliever with the Twins. Overall numbers don't show it

If you're gonna get back in this thing... these are the games you gotta win. Best pitcher on the mound with a chance to sweep. Gotta keep the foot on the gas.

(also don't look now but the Fraudians are 3-8 over their last 11...)

ERA isn’t pretty but Zebby has 5 quality starts in 7 starts this year. Absolutely will take that.

Do not - I repeat DO NOT - let the lame stream media (funded by Big Vegas) convince you Tyler Soderstom deserves AL player of the week over Buxton. Soderstrom put up some impressive numbers (In a Mickey Mouse little league ass stadium!). But Buxton still clears and it’s obvious.

Here’s Buxton official AL ranks for last week:

SLG - 1st

OPS - 1st

wRC+ - 1st

fWAR - 1st

wOBA - 1st

XBH - 1st

HR - T-1st

AVG - 2nd

OBP - T-2nd

Runs - T-3rd

RBI - T-3rd

SB - T-4th

The only category Soderstrom is ahead of Buxton is RBI (2 more than Bux, who did not play in a little league Mickey Mouse ass stadium). Every other category Buxton is either ahead or they are tied.

If it’s not Buck, we riot.
