Philadelphia Phillies
Houston Astros
it's funny that the stat set for the bot has to distinguish Aaron from his brother (both because it's obvious when we see which team is playing and also when see it is a starting pitcher).
I would have spies all over the stadium tonight. I don't want any cheating by the Astros. keep your eyes open.gm
I also like that we know it’s McCullers Jr., starting, not his dad.
Machado getting a day off after the Padres clinch a playoff spot. Padres may not be trying to maintain that second spot too seriously. The playoff seeding may be a long-term embarrassment for MLB. Both Central divisions are just much weaker than the East and the West. It will be common for the top wild card to be a better team than the 3rd division winner.
