#Cubs have overachieved against top competition while underachieving versus the lower rung leaving them right where we thought they'd be — just below .500 | Willson Contreras returned to Wrigley Field with a #Cardinals organization in complete disarray | #Tigers win 3 consecutive series and expose the #Mets for the hilarious mess they are | Eduardo Rodriguez might be the best pitcher in the league and should be traded at the peak of his value | Sean Manaea has been every bit as shitty as the #SFGiants felt after their trip to Mexico | Beyond loosening the #WhiteSox logjam at 1B/DH, moving on from Jose Abreu is looking more and more like the right move | As bad as the AL Central is, should the floundering Sox press on for a potential division title or cut bait and trade expiring assets like Lucas Giolitto? | Luis Robert Jr. will get plenty of chances to take our Badass of the Week honor so it's time to give it to E-Rod | Grossly entitled billionaire heir to The Gap fortune and #Athletics owner John Fisher is doing his best George Costanza impersonation as he begs for taxpayers' money to earn our A*****e of the Week dishonor | #Mariners Nike City Connect uniforms make waves, but did they miss the mark?

Drew Smyly's perfect game bid gets intercepted by Yan Gomes playing a completely different sport | Justin Steele has quietly become the best pitcher in baseball just last July, much like Jake Arrieta's ascension for the #Cubs in 2014 | Who will get the 100th Splash Hit into McCovey Cove for the #SFGiants? | #Tigers bullpen is following Scott Harris' mantra by "controlling the strike zone" with surprising success | Miguel Cabrera's going-away gift list is getting weird | Kenny Williams' "accountability" comments might put Rick Hahn on the hot seat for the #WhiteSox | Steve Stone suggests Lance Lynn might be too fat for #MLB's new pitch clock | There's a long way to go before the #Athletics can cash in their chips in Las Vegas | Kicking the shit out of cancer earns Liam Hendriks our most well-deserved Badass of the Week | Max Scherzer makes a martyr of himself over MLB's murky 'sticky stuff' rule enforcement, but was it really worth a 10-game suspension?
