BTW, I had to avoid BBF for a bit... and prevent any stupid wagers on my behalf before the season started.

Could retire having his best season EVER!
And here Ortiz is, halfway home in his swan song, with a .332 average, second behind only Houston's Jose Altuve (.341).
But the Red Sox don't pay Ortiz to hit for average. They pay him for production, and he leads the Major Leagues in doubles (34), slugging percentage (.682), OPS (1.108) and extra-base hits (57).
The home run allowed Ortiz to break his own team record for the most extra-base hits prior to the All-Star break, one he set back in 2004.
"He did everything but record an out in the field," Red Sox lefty David Price said. "He's done everything, even with a couple of triples and stolen bases. It is pretty special. Even when he gets out, he hits the ball hard. It's been fun to watch. We just hope he keeps it going."
For Ortiz, this is 40.
"Maybe people will stop thinking playing at 40 is bad," Ortiz said. "It's good. I'm fine. I feel like I'm 30. I feel good right now."
Ortiz doesn't seem to be slowing down. The homer on Sunday -- a two-run shot over the Green Monster -- was his third in the last four games.
"You know me," Ortiz said. "I'm always better in the second half."
Why would the Red Sox doubt him after the way he has hit all season?
"It was great," said right fielder Mookie Betts, another Red Sox All-Star. "Can't ask for anything more. He did everything, plus some. I think we all know that he's going to continue to do what he always does."
Backed by Ortiz, the Red Sox are 49-38 and just two games back in the American League East.

AL Wild Card update
I think, {or hope}, the American League Wild Card will come from the East Division.

Alone at the top.
The rest of the schedule is all A.L. East playing each other.

It could be either Starlin Castro (19) or Didi Gregorius (17). Sure, it could be Brian McCann, who also has 17, but this is pretty fun from the "who saw that one coming?" files.
