Sunny and warm all weekend. Pretty good for a city whose next country south is Canada. Rain all weekend here prompted me to wonder.

They are better pitchers than we are, but can't hit a lick. Torkelson's Mateo. OPS+ of 64. They must be verklempt.

The Orioles begin a three-game series in Detroit unsure if they’ll have Mountcastle, Urías, Rougned Odor and Austin Hays available to play. Just another day in paradise.

Mountcastle is receiving treatment for a sore left wrist and Urías has some lingering discomfort in his abdomen. Manager Brandon Hyde wanted to avoid using Odor, who’s been battling through a sinus issue. And Cardinals pitcher Génesis Cabrera stepped on the back of Hays’ left hand while recording an out in the seventh inning, causing lacerations that put the outfielder’s status in question.

Need bodies. Adley has some reps at 1st now.

Here's a scary thought. Gunnar's everything they said he was, plus 11 stolen bases so far. he probably couldn't under-hit all our Mendozas, two of whom are now disabled to some extent to boot.

Anybody else resist the urge upon hearing of Odor's sinus problem, to tell him to suck it up? I did. Until now. Might not be my final dad joke of the weekend.
