I'm shocked that bum Max Scherzer allowed that hit today.
Thought for sure he was going to do a performance that would never be topped-
immaculate inning
3000th strikeout
perfect game
So question- has he passed Clayton Kershaw now for pitcher of the generation?

NL Cy Young shaping up to be really interesting....
gambling odds right now.
Max Scherzer 5/4
Corbin Burnes 2/1
Walker Buehler 11/5
Zack Wheeler 12/1
the interesting part to me is schedules....
Burnes gets Cubs, Cards, @ Cards
Poor Buehler gets @ Reds, @ Rockies, and Padres
Max gets @ Reds, @ D'Backs and Padres
really think Burnes has huge advantage schedule wise there. Cincy is equal park factor to Colorado this year. Arizona isn't easy park at all either.

Padres are in deep trouble. They would lose this game 3-2. Only 6 games ahead of the Rockies right now-

so GWRBI for the Dodgers tonight is the ageless one, Albert Pujols. What a year he's had for the Dodgers. Such a weapon to have for the playoffs.
Hit #3300 and RBI #2150.

I see Dave Roberts has said that Max will start either a game 163 or the Wild Card Game.
Between how well he's done lately and Buehler kind of falling off (7.32 ERA in September)- I'd say it totally makes sense.

Jacob Webb gets in on the act for a change. Man that hurt.
on plus side, Austin Riley has come into his own. 32HRs, 97RBIs, .301/.368/.534

My Reds took the worst time to endure a playoff killing slump. Put a fork in 'em. Three weeks ago they were in the driver's seat for the second wild card spot. Enter the St. Louis Cardinals - won 13 in a row and 15 of 20. They can't find a way to lose right now.

Why in the hell is Bell pitching to Juan Soto at all?
