I think baseball is indeed hard. Dead balls. Young players. 

Julio is heating up though .... I can't speak for the others as I don't watch them.

When Julio hits the ball ... he hits the shit out of it ... exit velocity wise. 

Kelenic on the other hand. He's an absolute joke and a bust. I hate him and my negativity about him got me banned from the Mariners subreddit lol. 

Agreed on Rodriguez.  Kelenic comes across like a giant prick too. 

Where its hard to watch Julio Rodriguez and not get sucked in by the joy he displays playing baseball, Kelenic comes across like the LL coach's kid that thinks he's awesome and is bent he's not tearing it up so he acts out.  

Rodriguez and Kelenic couldn't be more different IMO.

Pirates took 2 of 3 from the dodgers and the Reds took 2 of 3 from the brewers

Clearly the Royals should trade for Albert Pujols.

The marlins had one on and two outs in the top of the 9th, and ended up scoring 8 runs after that

I knew moving him to my fantasy team's bench would cause him to take off.

All three of Yelich's cycles have come against the Reds, who have allowed 20 cycles in their history, second most to the St. Louis Cardinals (24) all time. Yelich, 30, is the first player to hit three cycles against a single team.

Pujols is batting .209 with an OPS of .705 

He is 2 for his last 26  (.077)
