Weekly Razzball news delivered straight to your inbox.
Last week would have been awesome if JP Sears and Garrett Whitlock didn’t disappoint us. We got some gems from the other three pitchers and a lovely week from Leody Taveras in the hitting section. It’s much easier to recommend pitchers than hitters because the matchups are much more valuable when examining the differing variables. Please, blog, may I have some more?
With the 2023 season turning to July, we are entering what I consider the holiday season of the MLB calendar. Sure, the Fourth is a real-life holiday, but the All Star Game and related break (along with me filling that break by despondently watching paint dry during a baseball-less hellscape) plus trade deadline add some extra layers of fun to the typical rigmarole. Please, blog, may I have some more?
Matt Olson wasted no time starting Atlanta’s rout of the Marlins on Friday night with a soaring 424-foot two-run bomb in the first inning to put his team ahead 3-0. The Braves never looked back, and Olson’s teammates did their best to match Matt’s power stroke, “Oh, we’re really doing this are we?” Please, blog, may I have some more?
Greetings and salutations, Razzballers!
Can you believe the All-Star Break is in two weeks (either because this season has felt immensely short or long)?
Speaking of the All-Star Break, was there anyone you hoped to see or are surprised to see? Please, blog, may I have some more?
