Around the league
- Pedro Martinez certainly believes that baseballs are different this year.
- The Dodgers are hoping that Julio Urias will start in 2020.
- The Marlins continued to be awful, but on the internet this time.
- Willson Contreras and Craig Kimbrel are both dealing with injuries.
- Jonathan Villar has hit for the cycle.
- LGFT Trevor Bauer is nothing if not committed to his philosophy:
