Yankees 30 runs over 3 games. Unfortunately, all 30 were in the first two games.

Jose Abreu sent to the minors? I’m sure this had to be consensual given his ruses in the major leagues.

Who pissed off the baseball gods? Trout is having knee surgery. What the hell? Do the Angles have the worst training room, or did Trout’s deal with devil expire?

How the mighty have fallen.

Abreu was once one of the most feared clutch hitters in the majors.

Almost predictable at this point. Guy’s played over 100 games just once since 2019.

Brewers kinda chippy this year. Or they just don’t like the AL East. Got into it with the Orioles earlier and Tampa now.

This may be the first time in my memory where the start of a game was delayed because of a bee swarm.

[Bee swarm halts Arizona Diamondbacks v LA Dodgers MLB match - BBC Sport](https://www.bbc.com/sport/baseball/articles/c9wzjv8xdvwo#:~:text=A%20bee%20swarm%20delayed%20the,netting%20behind%20the%20home%20plate).

Oh, and the D-Backs won 4-3 on a walkoff 2-run homer by Christian Walker in the bottom of the 10th.

> The Dodgers didn’t strike out once Monday. The Twins have won 9 straight (it helps to be playing the White Sox.) Trout is out for the season. The Asterisk’s are in last place in their division. We are off to a fun start this season!
