The One Twist with the Los Angeles Dodgers
The Los Angeles Dodgers are the most hated team in baseball. Nobody likes them. In fact, some do not want to confront them.
Although, tonight marks a major twist. One that will accentuate the sports world.
Even though the Dodgers face a lot of criticism, one man will step on the mound who does not necessarily evoke much hate at Comerica Park
I am talking about two-time Cy Young winner, Tarik Skubal. It will not be any type of typical pat on the back. It will be a standing ovation for one of the best Detroit Tigers in franchise history.
Skubal recently pitched two of his best seasons compared to Randy Johnson. There will not be ire when this one’s over.

Zack Wheeler Faces Reality Check
Last night, the Philadelphia Phillies snapped a nine game winning streak due to Zack Wheeler’s poor performance on the mound in Seattle. The Seattle Mariners gained huge contributions out of Cole Young and Cal Raleigh but it was ultimately Wheeler who struggled.
Wheeler became the first pitcher in Phillies history to allow 4 home runs and 5 walks in a single outing. Wheeler said he is fully healthy but seems to be talking things out and working through the ebbs and flows.
Wheeler is not the pitcher he once was, facing a reality check. His ERA is 8.50 in recent outings and many wonder if he will make or break the postseason.
Wheeler has not done a bad job considering his arm surgery construed in August of last year. Philly fans just need to see more of Wheeler.
The Phillies are currently 3.5 games back of the NL East division lead. Wheeler has the lowest MLB career playoff W.H.I.P. (0.73) in at least 50 innings pitched.

Deshaun Watson Named Starting QB
For NFL Week 1, DeShaun Watson has been named the Cleveland Browns starting quarterback. This does not necessarily mean QB Shedeur Sanders is out of a job quite yet.
Watson recently disrespected Cleveland fans by calling out their frustrations toward the quarterback. It has been nothing but really disrespectful of Watson to spew out these comments and spread animosity.
He is a lone man after the stresses Watson has endured. But most can acclaim his extraordinary success to winning the College Football National championship back with Dabo Swinney.
This one stings for Cleveland fans but pick yourself back up for a moment because you have a new stadium arriving in three years and that can mean so much to a souvenired franchise, first of all.
Secondly, you have acquired All-Pro’s Nick Chubb, Myles Garrett, Joel Bitonio, and Joe Thomas in the past. What makes you think you cannot be on the cutting edge of glorified history.
This is my sincere, open letter to Cleveland fans because they cannot sure need it. Browns are Dawg Pound nation!

Seattle Mariners Promote Kade Anderson to the Majors
Kade Anderson is not the type of pitcher to mess around and so are not the Seattle Mariners. After placing in first of the AL West division, the Mariners slowly trotted back.
They currently are several games back from the AL Wild Card and need a savior. That credible man is none other than pitcher Cade Anderson from LSU.
Now, do not forget. Anderson came from the same university as Paul Skenes and won a national championship. Anderson has been able to handle the pressures of the minor leagues as he posted a 1.06 ERA throughout AA. The lowest the Texas League has seen.
His whiff rate (50%) stands out the most in a fascinating changeup that predicts to be one of the best in due time. Due time, however, will wait on the recovery of the Mariners going forward.
With more than 30 games to go, it will be tough to pull off a miraculous comeback as the Mariners run differential has dropped to -46. Anderson was rated the No.1 pitching prospect and should not have a rough time adjusting.

Pat McAfee Joins ESPN MNF Countdown
In a big boost of a screaming revelation, Pat McAfee is making the switch from College Football Gameday to Monday Night Football Countdown. McAfee has become a star since entering the media scene.
He has also done side work doing his own show, the Pat McAfee show, and WWE. McAfee has turned into a star.
He did not become a star off Barstool Sports, McAfee privacy protection or his NFL career. He fully resonates with the people on a national media scale.
That is why people love McAfee for his stand out in appearance, creative ideas, and dumb joking somehow whether its his panel or WWE. He got stunned by “Stone Cold” Steve Austin at Wrestlemania 38 and what do you know.
He has stunned us once more. Congratulations Pat McAfee on the new promotion!
