2026 MLB Season

Konnor Griffin is out 8-10 weeks with a torn tendon in his left ring finger, called the sagittal band. According to the article I read, it's a rare injury for a baseball player. It happened to White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson in August of 2022 and knocked him out for the rest of the season, and the former AL batting champion has since steadily declined. Griffin is hitting .276 with 5 HR and 25 RBIs and an OPS of .736.

Ryan O'Hearn hit 3 homers last night and set a club record with 10 RBIs. He's only the 17th player in MLB history to knock in 10 or more runs in a game. He's been a great addition to the Pirates, as has Brandon Lowe, who leads all 2B with 21 homers and 64 ribbies. He should have made the All Star team but didn't as Paul Skenes is the only Pittsburgh representative. Skenes is having an off-season and made the team mostly on reputation as Braxton Ashcraft has been the Pirates' best starter so far this season.

Hopefully Griffin bounces back and the injury is not long term. Shutting him down for the year isn't the worst thing IMO.

Mets OF Carson Benge had an unlikely comical homerun last night. Not sure if anyone caught it. Awful and embarrassing play by the Royals that just threw the ball around like it was a little league game.

Benge and fellow 21 year old Rookie AJ Ewing have been a little under the radar. Ewing just hit his 7th HR in 52 games. He bats leadoff and is hitting .278 and plays CF.
Another young prospect is second year White Sox SS/3B Colson Montgomery. He hit 21 HR's last season as a rookie. He already has 23 this season. Like many young players these days, his BA is not impressive as he's batting just .221 this season after hitting .239 as a rookie.

Trout comes off the 10 day IL and hits his 18th HR of the season and 422 for his career!

This is great. It's so hard waiting to see him play again. I was hoping for a huge 50 homer year early in the season to make up for lost time. Now I would be more than happy if he can at least hit 40. If he hits 40 he would have 444 at the end of the season.
 
Most years the NL is significantly Whiter than the AL. This year it’s inverted. 6 of 9 hitters plus the SP. NL has only 4 of 9.

Is anyone going to point out the absurdity of this? The fatigue is real and they keep piling on unchecked.

It’s exhaustion at this point.

The poor black kids with no baseball role models!!! They must have never heard of Hank Aaron, Willie Mays, Barry Bonds and Aaron Judge hitting homeruns decades after decade. Also, the anti-Whites who are counting the percentages of blacks are super dishonest. They won’t count someone like Astro’s star Yordan Alvarez. Yet if you saw him walking around Detroit, you’d not be able to distinguish him from any of the other local riffraff. I’d imagine whatever percentage the MLB is “Hispanic”, you can take 30-50% and classify them as African blacks. So 6% is extremely undercounted and making an issue where none exists. If anything, they are probably over represented like they are in damn near anything that can be manipulated by our enemies.

Jackie Robinson 1st black MLB player in 1947. 89 years later, this guy is a breakthrough black hoping to inspire black kids to play baseball? Hundreds of blacks in the hall of fame, tens of thousands have played in the league. How many more decades can blacks play the suppressed minority card?
 
From that article: "The Institute for Diversity and Ethics in Sport at Central Florida issued annual studies that showed the percentage was 18% when its reports started in 1991."

It should be labeled "The Institute for White Replacement in Sport and Everything Else." Almost always the truth is the inverse of what the regime claims.

As long as white liberal cucks keep accepting the "suppressed minority" card, blacks will keep using it.

There's a word that starts with N that white people need to start saying to black people. That word is NO.
 
Sigh. Typical article calling for more negroes and less Whites. You will never hear the Jewish media call for more Whites! lol!

It’s a player calling for more blacks. If only White athletes would start advocating for White kids. It’s rampant and unchecked pandering to blacks.
