I woke up on Sunday thinking the trade deadline was counting down.

Can you imagine how history would have been different if Richard Nixon were the commissioner of baseball instead of President?

He claims he could have been. When would he ever lie?

The Blue Jays can win the Division and a winnable AL this year. They need to go on a shopping spree and fill any holes. They can be one of those unique team that gives many players their only ring.

Aroldis Chapman is a Cub.

That is his right to be.

But what he said, what Joe Maddon said and what USA Today writer Bob Nightengale wrote shows why Domestic Violence is not going away anytime soon as long as people continue to belittle it.

It is a “Be a Decent Human” episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

It is a Tuesday and I am answering a question from superfan @CU8SFAN (aka Cubs Fan with an 8.)

I give a defense of the defunct stat “Game Winning RBI.” Yeah it is flawed and stupid, but it had its odd merits.

It is an “embrace the narrative” episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

Robin Ventura has been White Sox manager longer than many Presidents have been in office. Yet despite being in charge of a losing team coming apart at the seams, he is still employed.

Meanwhile I am not happy with the Cubs looking to deal for Aroldis Chapman because of his domestic violence past.

Lots of teams need pitching.

Not a lot of great pitchers are available.

Zack Greinke is a great pitcher.

The Diamondbacks are going nowhere.

By the time they are contenders, Zack Greinke will probably no longer an ace and his contract will be an unbelievable burden on the Diamondbacks.

See where I am taking this? Time to shop Greinke while his injuries are minor.

It is a SELL HIGH episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

I have thoughts on the All Star Game. Pitchers are not facing enough batters. Players are being lifted too quickly. And I still don’t understand why the American League was the home team in San Diego.

Plus I realize that being fair is irrelevant in baseball.

And I references the Coen Brothers as a way to reconcile the fact that Mike Trout probably won’t win the AL MVP.

Daily Matchups for 7/5/2016

Pitcher

STUDS

Carrasco, Price, and MadBum…… All with sketchy match ups.  I’m personally fading all three, if I had to choose one, I’d go Carrasco. He’s kept the Tigers in check with exception of Miggy, but the Tigers can blow up at any time. More of a tourney play.

MID RANGE

Masahiro Tanaka– Whitesox hitting a combined .224 vs him and he’s been pretty reliable this year.

AJ Griffin– Current Sox 9-38 off him and he’s limited the HR’s this year. Sox do appear to be heating up, so there’s some risk but he could pay off nicely,

VALUE

Tim Lincecum- Rays have made a lot of below average pitchers look good this year, they K a bunch vs righties and its in the Trop.  Not high upside here, but 6 innings, 2 ER with 5-6 K’s and the W is a reachable line.  And his price could allow you some big bats.

It is the Fourth of July and many teams are figuring out if they are contenders.

The Giants, who have been baseball’s best team since mid May and aided by Clayton Kershaw‘s injury in Los Angeles, can spend the second half of the season fine tuning a team that appears to be an October lock.
