The Chicago Orphans may not have played as well as their devoted fans had hoped for, but no one will cast blame towards 1st baseman Jake Beckley for any lack of effort. For his efforts in July, Beckley was named the National League Batter of the Month after going 51 for 126 (.405 batting average) with 19 Doubles, 3 Triples, 24 Runs, 15 RBIs, and 3 Walks that resulted in a slash line of .405/.419/.532 which was good for a 184 OPS+ and 1.8 WAR.

This is the first time that White has received monthly honors.

OmahaBaseball · 07-27-2023, 07:20 PM

Being drafted 1st overall brings a lot of expectations, and Chicago White Sox pitcher Fred Glade has lived up to the high praise. For his efforts (5-2, 1.87 ERA, 0.7 WAR) Glade was named American League Rookie of the Month.

OmahaBaseball · 07-27-2023, 07:37 PM

With one full month left in the season, the playoff race is likely locked up in the American League (Boston maintains an 11 game lead over the Tigers), while the National League race remains tight (Boston holds a 5 game lead over the Cardinals). The race for last will come down to a battle between the Chicago White Sox and the Philadelphia Phillies.

OmahaBaseball · 07-27-2023, 07:41 PM

A nice month for the team as they posted a 18-11 record and maintain an 11 game lead in the American League race. The team continues to hit the ball well but just cannot seem to generate much power. The pitching staff has played well, but does have a tendency to serve up the long ball and the bullpen has been shaky at times. The team looks set up well for the playoffs.

OmahaBaseball · 07-29-2023, 11:26 AM

The team finances remain solid, as attendance and revenue per game are up significantly, while player payroll remains very manageable. Will continue to maintain flexibility to make moves as needed.

OmahaBaseball · 07-29-2023, 05:59 PM

The losing continues, as the visiting St. Louis Browns (49-63) jumped out to an early lead and ultimately topped the Boston Americans (76-36) by a 5 to 3 score.

The Browns were led on offense by Kip Selbach (3 for 4, Triple, 2 RBIs, 1 Walk), Billy Lauder (2 for 5, 1 Run, 1 RBI, 1 Stolen Base), and Jimmy Barrett (1 for 4, 2 Runs, 1 Walk, 1 Stolen Base).

Washington Senators 3rd baseman Doc Casey had an outstanding week at the plate, smashing the ball to the tune of a .571 average (16 for 28) while smacking 4 Doubles, 1 Triple, 6 Runs, 3 RBIs, 1 Walk, and swiping 6 bases for a slash line of .571/.586/.786 that resulted in a 306 OPS+ and 1.0 WAR. For his efforts, Casey was named the American League Player of the Week.

OmahaBaseball · 07-31-2023, 10:36 AM

Not the most-likely player to take home an award, but St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Herm McFarland put together a fine string of games to take home the National League Player of the Week award. In picking up the honors, McFarland went 10 for 23 (.435 batting average) with 3 Doubles, 3 Homeruns, 5 Runs, 7 RBIs, and 1 Walk to finish with a slash line of .435/.458/.957 that resulted in a 319 OPS+ and 0.7 WAR.
