Our final links on this platform
Usually, we would gush about Jhoan Duran and the city’s new love affair with him, or Cristopher Sanchez’s continued ascension into the upper tier of starting pitchers.
Instead, here’s one last reminder that we will be going dark at 5:00 pm EST this evening and will not return until 9:00 am EST tomorrow, Tuesday. We’re moving to a new platform, so there needs to be time for migration.
Don’t say we didn’t warn you.
On to the links.
Phillies news:
- The story of the Phillies and Twins not only trading players, but trading Duran’s entrance music is pretty fun ($).
- Some injury updates, with Joe Ross and David Robertson in action in Lehigh Valley and Alec Bohm close to returning.
MLB news:
- The fire sale that the Twins actually pulled off “shook baseball” over the trade deadline. I still can’t believe they did it.
- Jacob Misiorowski’s run at capturing an unprecedented Cy Young in both the American and National Leagues simultaneously will be put on hold.
- Emmanuel Clase sold his future for some extra cash, now he’s in a gambling probe.
