Welcome back to Table Setters, where we're delving deep into the exhilarating world of Major League Baseball! Join your hosts Devin and Steve as they unpack the electrifying moments from a recent week headlined by a game that will undoubtedly go down in history. In his eighth major-league start, the unexpected hero, Ronel Blanco, defied all odds by pitching the 17th no-hitter in Astros history, silencing the Toronto Blue Jays in a resounding 10-0 victory at Minute Maid Park. Blanco's incredible performance not only etched his name in baseball lore but also showcased Houston's relentless pursuit of excellence without breaking the bank.

But the excitement doesn't stop there! Yainer Diaz made history as the first catcher to smash multiple home runs while catching a no-hitter, adding an extra layer of spectacle to Blanco's masterful outing. Meanwhile, off the field, the iconic Tropicana Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas made headlines with its closure, paving the way for an ambitious transformation into an MLB ballpark.

As the doors of the Tropicana shut for the final time, memories of its storied past, including its ties to the mob, resurface, hinting at the intrigue surrounding its impending demolition in October.

And let's not forget the whirlwind of rumors and updates swirling around the league! From DJ LeMahieu's unfortunate injury news, and even speculation about future stars like Rōki Sasaki potentially joining the Dodgers in 2025, there's no shortage of buzz to dissect.
