Game #104 GameThread: Jays @ Tigers

It seems weird to me that yesterday’s game started at 6:40 and today’s starts at 7:10. Why wouldn't you have evening games all start at the same time?

There is a good chance that this one won’t start on time, but it appears rain is on the way.

So it’s decent now, but the tarp is on the field and they’ve got sandbags protecting the steps down from the dugout. So your guess is as good as mine!#lightsupletsgo pic.twitter.com/4FvDssofnC

Deadline trades have started:

• The Yankees picked up third baseman Ryan McMahon.
• The Mets got Gregory Soto.

And, in non-deadline stuff, old friend

Cavan Biggio was DFAed by the Royals. I hope he can find a spot with another team.
