- Stanton is on pace to strike out 300 times this year and is already getting booed.

- Shohei Ohtani > Babe Ruth.

- Houston looks even better than last year because of their starting pitching. second in the AL in team ERA and the entire staff is striking out 10 batters per nine innings.

- Tampa Bay should be dissolved. off to a roaring 1-8 start; they cannot hit (team OPS of .519) nor pitch (team ERA of 4.92)
