August 23rd, 2027: We remain 1st in the Power Rankings. At 77-46, we have a one game lead over the Phillies.

We opened the series hosting the Dodgers in front of a nice sold out crowd. Luis Ardon (9-7, 3.13 ERA, 1.27 WHIP) took on Robnson Ortiz (6-9, 5.36 ERA, 1.35 WHIP) who's having a rough season. We dominated the entire game, shutting out the Dodgers 10-0.

Ardon was brilliant, 7 innings with 3 hits, 3 walks, and 4 strikeouts. Cho-yeong Hyoun finished the game, 2 innings with a hit and 3 strikeouts.

In his return to the lineup, Jarred Kelenic hit 2-for-3 with 2 runs, 2 walks, and a double. Jhon Solarte was 2-for-3 with a run scored, 3 RBI's, a walk, and double. Jackson Miller was 2-for-3 with a run scored, 3 RBI's, 2 doubles, and a walk. Deshawn Hardamon was 2-for-5 with a run scored. Daylen Lile was 1-for-3 with 2 runs, 2 walks, and an RBI. Chris Reid was 1-for-4 with a run scored.

Fun fact: In all of August, we've allowed more then 5 runs in only 2 games. On August 7th, we lost to the Indians 7-2 and on August 17th we lost to the Royals 6-5. We've only allowed 4 in back to back games, the 14th and 15th in 7-4 wins over the Braves.

Pirates SP Mike West tossed a 2-hit shutout in a 2-0 win over the Padres.

August 24th, 2027: Game two of four saw Jake Florence (11-9, 3.53 ERA, 1.27 WHIP) take on Luis Severino (4-11, 5.70 ERA, 1.34 WHIP). It was a tight one, but we edged them 5-4.

Florence went just 4 with 7 hits, 4 runs, 3 walks, and 3 strikeouts. The pen was great, 5 innings with 2 hits, 2 walks, and 6 strikeouts. Danny Niewald got the win, 1.1 innings with a strikeout. Victor Arano got the save with a perfect 9th.

Juan Ramirez was 2-for-3 with a run scored, an RBI, and two hit by pitches. Jarred Kelenic was 1-for-3 with a sac-fly, a walk, and 2 steals. Eric Kisela was 1-for-3 with a double, walk, and run scored. Isaac Nunez was 1-for-2 with a RBI and walk.

August 25th, 2027: RF Art Bryant will miss the rest of the year with a herniated disc in his neck. The former Marlin was hitting .328/.455/.536 with 17 homers and 76 RBI's.

We looked to keep rolling with Devon Peterson (12-4, 3.97 ERA, 1.31 WHIP) taking on Bryce Bonnin (4-14, 5.43 ERA, 1.33 WHIP). They managed to get a win, taking the thrid game 5-3.

Peterson went 5 innings with 7 hits, 4 runs, 3 walks, and 5 strikeouts. Niewald went 1.2 innings with a hit, run scored, walk, and 2 strikeouts.

Jarred Kelenic went 2-for-3 with a run scored, walk, double, and 2 more steals. Jackson Miller was 1-for-3 with a triple, run scored, walk, and RBI. Jhon Solarte had a pinch hit double in the 7th. Mac Horvath was 1-for-3 with a walk. Deshawn Hardamon was 1-for-4 with a run scored.

And the Phillies won, so they tied us back in first...

August 26th, 2027: We needed to win the series with Ignacio Hinojos (7-4, 3.80 ERA, 1.26 WHIP) taking on former Marlin Walker Buehler (1-1, 2.87 ERA, 1.28 WHIP) who has really had injuries problems. We got four in the first, and added more on to win the finale 7-4.

Hinojos went 5 innings with 4 hits, 2 runs, a walk, and 8 strikoeuts. Tylor Megill allowed 2 runs and 2 hits in 1.2 innings with a strikeout. Luis Alcantra and Victor Arano got holds before Chad Scoles got the save.

Chris Reid was 1-for-3 with a grand slam off Buehler in the first. He walked and scored a total of three times. Mac Horvath was 2-for-5 with a double and 2 runs scored. Juan Ramirez was 2-for-5 with a run scored. Daylen Lile and Jackson Miller were 2-for-4 with an RBI. Jarred Kelenic was 1-for-4 with a run scored and sac-fly.

Pirates RF Bobby Eaton hit three homers in a 9-6 win over the Giants.

The Rockies come to town for three before an off day. We'll see Eric Warren (3-7, 5.90 ERA), Forrest Whitley (9-6, 3.11 ERA), and A.J. Puk (9-4, 3.71 ERA) as we look to seperate ourselves from the Phillies.

August 27th, 2027: We opened the series with the Rox as Steve Paustian (10-6, 2.79 ERA, 1.20 WHIP) took on Eric Warren (3-7, 5.90 ERA, 1.33 WHIP). We got crushed, and they took the opener 11-3.

Daylen Lile left with a bruised ankle, but he's likely to just miss tomorrow's contest.

Paustian had a rare rough outing, 2 innings with 6 hits, 6 runs, 3 walks, and a strikeout. Hyoun tossed 2 innings with 3 hits, 2 runs, a walk, and strikeout. Tylor Megill went 2 innings with 3 hits, 2 runs, 2 walks, and 3 strikeouts. Riley Ferrell tossed 2 innings with 4 hits, a run, and a strikeout.

Juan Ramirez was 2-for-4 with 2 runs, a walk, a double, and 2 steals. Jake Taylor was 2-for-3 with a walk, double, and RBI. Jarred Kelenic was 1-for-3 with a steal, RBI, and walk.

Astros 3B Alex Bregman extended his hit streak to 20 games.

And we're down to 2nd...

Minnesota will be without 2B Trea Turner for the season with a torn posterio cruciate ligament. The 34-year-old hit .244 with 18 homers and 89 RBI's.

August 28th, 2027: We looked to bounce back with Luis Ardon (10-7, 2.97 ERA, 1.24 WHIP) facing Forrest Whitley (9-6, 3.11 ERA, 1.27 WHIP). The Rockies offense has been too much for us, and they crushed us 8-1.

Ardon went 5 innings with 5 hits, 4 runs, a walk, and 5 strikeouts. Niewald allowed 3 runs, 2 walks, and a hit, while getting just a strikeout. Riley Ferrell tossed an inning with 2 hits, a run, walk, and strikeout. Alpha Quivers tossed 2.2 perfect frames with 4 strikeouts.

Deshawn Hardamon was 2-for-4 with a solo homer. Jackson Miller was 1-for-4 with a double. Ramirez, Kelenic, and Reid were all 1-for-4.

August 29th, 2027: Three players will miss the rest of the season. Arizona righty Chris Green tore his labrum, Cleveland righty Jeff Ramirez tore a flexor tendon in his elbow, and Brewers LF Kevin Ellis also tore his labrum.

We looked to avoid the sweep with Jake Florence (11-9, 3.68 ERA, 1.31 WHIP) taking on A.J. Puk (9-4, 3.71 ERA, 1.21 WHIP). We pitched better, but were swept after a 3-2 loss.

Wow...

Florence went 6.2 innings with 4 hits, 3 runs, and 2 walks. The pen tossed 2.1 innings with a hit, walk, and 4 strikeouts.

Daylen Lile was 2-for-4 with a double and run scored. Isaac Nunez was 1-for-4 with an RBI. Cole Brannen was 1-for-3. Jarred Kelenic and Mac Horvath were both 1-for-4.

At least we get tomorrow off...

Tim Green of the Rays was 5-for-5 in a 9-7 win over the Yankees. Nationals 1B Garrett Frechette was 5-for-6 in a 8-6 win over the Royals.
