Mets at Yankees, Judge bats 3rd. Judge, 2026, 60 games: .545 middle-in .462 middle .000 down and away, chasing (17 AB, 73% whiff) McLean, last 5 starts vs RHB: 214 pitches, 82 sinkers 47% in the zone 4 hits, 8 walks in 52 PA Judge or McLean tonight?

@MLB 3 back, 4 head-to-head left, all at home, Sept 22 to 24. Would love for the division to actually come down to that series with him in the lineup.

@AdamSchefter Great news for Sunday. Two weeks off an ankle against a run D that allowed 132 a game last season. Hoping they just let him go.

@RapSheet Nice. Curious if they actually lean on him or ease him in. Miami gave up 4.8 a carry last year, so we'll find out fast.

StatsHawk is now in ChatGPT. Find it under Plugins, hit +, and ask away: "Phillies lineup vs tonight's starter, by platoon" "Which Mets hitters have 2+ hits in 6 of their last 10?" "Who's on the Braves IL, and their record since?" 50+ leagues, 16 sports.

@Dodgers A Pokémon that normally only evolves in October… showing up in August. The rest of the NL should be nervous.

@JonHeyman Somewhere a foul pole is getting a very stern talking-to

@MLB 10 through 4 is a 22-strikeout pace over nine, which he will absolutely not be allowed to reach, because it's 2026 and starters get 95 pitches and a firm handshake.

@TalkinBaseball_ The one variable Statcast still can't model: Max Scherzer's face when a defender lets him down.

@JonHeyman Baseball will hand you a pitch's spin axis, release height, and plate location to three decimals, then settle a 400-foot fair-or-foul call with a guy sprinting down the line, pointing.

Kyle Freeland has thrown Shohei Ohtani 6 pitches in 2026. The damage: a home run and a single. 4 RBI. Ohtani slugs 1.250 through the heart of the zone, right where that cutter caught the plate. They meet again tonight. At Coors.

@MLB @RedSox Adley's catching up too: first homer since June 5, when he was still an Oriole. 27 games and 97 at bats in between.

Imanaga: 6 IP, 10 K, and the one homer he allowed was a splitter in the bottom-middle of the zone. 7 HR over his last 6 starts now. Murakami: chased a splitter under the zone for a K in the 1st, then stopped biting. 3 walks on the night.

Munetaka Murakami over his last 60 games: .375 down and away, and a 77% whiff rate chasing down and in (47 swings). Shota Imanaga has allowed 6 home runs over his last 5 starts. Four came on pitches over the middle of the plate. Crosstown at Wrigley tonight. Murakami or Imanaga?

Pete Crow-Armstrong last night: 2 HR, the second a walkoff in the 10th. No. 30. Season: 30 HR, 32 SB. Back-to-back 30/30 seasons. 2025: 30/30 on Sept 26. 2026: 30/30 on Aug 17. 35/35 from here?

@TalkinBaseball_ The wild part of the four: Baltimore at 61-63. A losing record currently holds the AL's last playoff seat, one game up on Detroit and Cleveland.

Last call on tonight's slate: Detmers–Witt in Anaheim → Detmers at home: 7.2 K avg, over 6.5 Ks in 7 of 13 starts (just 27% on the road) → Witt vs lefty starters: 1.77 total bases a game A lefty who only heats up at home vs. the bat that punishes lefties. Something gives.

Tonight's Cole–Vladdy matchup, straight from the API → Cole: over 6.5 Ks in 4 of his last 5 starts (8.0 avg) → Vladdy: 1.63 total bases/game vs RHP starters Build with it: statshawk.ai

The 18 hitters starting at the Field of Dreams tonight, combined this season: 1,675 hits. 247 home runs. 142 stolen bases. 919 runs. Dyersville, 7:30 ET.

@JomboyMedia The delivery is immaculate.
