They're 13-16 which, for them this season, is pretty decent! D'backs swept them but the Rockies went 3-3 against the Padres (with whom we are neck-and-neck) so you've done great!

Sad to see Joey Votto finally hang up his cleats. Really hoped he would get one last shot at the majors with his Blue Jays this season, but it just wasn't meant to be.
What a career though - and if he doesn't go into broadcasting at some point I will be shocked.

Six-time MLB All-Star and former NL MVP Joey Votto retires
The 40-year-old first baseman became a free agent last fall following the end of a $251.5 million, 12-year contract with the Cincinnati Reds, his only team over 17 major league seasons.
wow, did not see this coming despite a total collapse in last two months.
The Mariners are expected to fire manager Scott Servais, per a report from Ken Rosenthal and Marc Carig of The Athletic. He will be replaced by Dan Wilson in an announcement that is expected later today.

Ohtani joined the elite 40-40 club last week as the fastest player to do so. With a month until end of the season will he become the first player with a 50-50 season?
Ohtani became the sixth member of the 40/40 club Friday, hammering both his 40th dinger and swiping his 40th bag in the same game at Dodger Stadium against the Rays. That dry description hardly does justice to the moment. Ohtani beat the Tampa Bay Rays with a first-pitch, game-ending grand slam, his 40th homer, after stealing his 40th base earlier in the game. It was the first game-ending blast of his nonpareil career.
That Ohtani made yet more baseball history with so much flair is hardly a surprise. What's the bigger surprise is how quickly Ohtani got there -- 126 games, 21 faster than any of the existing quintet already in the club.

Shohei Ohtani becomes fastest to 40/40 -- could 50/50 be in reach?
That Ohtani became the fastest to ever join the 40/40 club is just one more example of his incredible talent.
