Great MLB moment last night. Didn't know who he was. Saw him duck a 101 mph Aroldis fastball to the head the night before in a heated Yanks/Rays battle. It has become a rivalry and they genuinely don't like each other. He struck out later that AB, ending the game on the wrong side of the battle. Steps up in first AB the next night and hits a bomb... 'lil extra strut around the bases. Later in the game, hits another, providing the offense for the win. Says all the right PC things in the interview but body language said something entirely different. Rays take 8 of 10 from the loaded Yanks in season series.
Some good stuff goin' on.
Will Twins/Tribe/White Sox dance to the very end.
Padres!
Will the villain Astros continue to lurk over the A's shoulder?
Will Philly or Miami make a darkhorse playoff run?
Less than a month to go and really only about 7 teams out of it. A little streak can put most of the next tier of teams right back in it.
. I can't believe they couldn't get a more proven and ready impact bat/OF for him. Starling Marte.
