Didn't Upton do this as well when he was here? I think I remember something like that...

Gerrit Cole: at least 11 K in each of his 1st 3 starts with the Astros. Could become the 1st pitcher in modern MLB history (since 1900) with double-digit K in each of his 1st 4 starts with a team and in each of his 1st 4 starts to begin a season

Now that the #Cubs-#STLCards game is postponed today, we are within one game of the most postponements through April since 2000, at 25 and counting

Eric Thames (@Brewers) has homered 12 times against the Reds since the start of the 2017 season, tied with Aaron Judge against the Orioles for the most HR against a single opponent in that span.

When he takes the mound tonight, José Berríos will be 1st native Puerto Rican to start a regular-season MLB game at Hiram Bithorn Stadium since Javier Vázquez with the Expos on September 7, 2003

Why is that important?
The Reds have announced they are replacing manager Bryan Price and pitching coach Mack Jenkins. Effective immediately, bench coach Jim Riggleman is interim manager, Louisville manager Pat Kelly is bench coach, and Pensacola pitching coach Danny Darwin is major league staff.

J.D. Martinez's rate of hard-hit contact is the best in the majors, by far: (link: https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=all&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=y&type=2&season=2018&month=0&season1=2018&ind=0&team=0&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0&sort=19,d) fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?p…

The Red Sox are off to a 17-2 start. Only the 1918 New York Giants had a better record after 19 games in the Modern Era (since 1900). But only 2 of the previous 6 teams to start 17-2 or better won the World Series, and 3 missed the postseason entirely.

$133.28: What Brandon Belt cost the Angels by fouling off 16 balls in one at bat. Home teams pay a wholesale rate of about $8.33 per ball.

Gerrit Cole's 7th-inning strikeout of Zack Cozart was his 49th of the season, tying Nolan Ryan in 1989 for fifth-most by a pitcher in his first five games with a team. h/t @EliasSports

Dudu is on fire this month but it has been less than a month. It is a marathon not a sprint.

There's still a week left in April and Mike Trout already has 2.0 WAR. Every year pitchers try to conceive of new ways to get him out, and every year he laughs at the effort. He's hitting .308/.418/.692. His 10 homers lead the big leagues. He's 5 for 5 in steals. Simply the best.
