gerrit cole / justin verlander trivia
He already owns an unusual but interesting record -- at least since people started keeping track, he has the record for most consecutive games to start a season where the pitcher goes at least five innings and allows six or fewer hits. Cole has done that all 17 times this year.The odd thing is that Justin Verlander did it in his first 16 starts this season. There must be something in that Houston water.

looks like colby rasmus is retiring (again)
Colby Rasmus steps off the 'roller coaster' again. Reports from Baltimore have former #stlcards torchbearer prospect walking away from the game -- for a second consecutive summer. Spoke to him about that this past spring: https://t.co/oC629kTL0c #Orioles #MLB— Derrick Goold (@dgoold) July 4, 2018

apparently the marlins this year have taken a policy of not lying about attendance so that when it theoretically rises once the team is theoretically better the new ownership group will have an accurate reflection of how much they’ve actually risen attendance \(o_O)/
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 5 July 2018 22:07 (five years ago) link
hi J... I thought MLB-wide policy now was to record attendance as tickets sold for a game, not actual fannies in seats; i wonder if this has changed?

you know, back in the day the boys used to wear wool uniforms and ride in single-berth trains without any air conditioning, all without any complaints at all. in fact they used to wear those wool uniforms on the train, because they loved the game so much. i remember some pranksters setting shoelaces on fire in the dugout, but you know when it was time to lay down a sacrifice bunt for the 5th time in a game, we were ready, and that's something the boys today with their launch angles and metrics can't seem to learn

Trevor Bauer says he's never signing a long-term deal. Only one-year contracts.Why? Turns out he made a bet with a friend: If he ever signs a multi-year deal, the friend gets to shoot him in the nuts with a paintball gun from 10 feet away.Full podcast: https://t.co/hvN9x1gPKo pic.twitter.com/9l3z7PHLGz— Jeff Passan (@JeffPassan) July 6, 2018

Jordan Zimmermann outpitched Bartolo Colon in 2 hours, 5 minutes. Sun just set, so they'll have to wait for postgame fireworks.— Jason Beck (@beckjason) July 7, 2018

Both starters were so good - game ended just minutes after sun set, played in a crisp 2:05. Zimmermann threw 96 pitches, 67 for strikes. Colon w/ 97P - 72 strikes. Combined - the two went to a 3-ball count just three times....— Dan Dickerson (@Dan_Dickerson) July 7, 2018
