[bksballer89]

5-1 on their current homestand with detroit coming to town for 3.

As for that team from Boston, it doesn't get easier as they have the red hot indians in town

dominic smith, mets 1B. get. him. now.

LATEST PLAYER NEWS
Smith was not in the lineup Thursday at Triple-A Las Vegas, and he's expected to be called up soon, Kristie Ackert of the New York Daily News reports.
Spin:
The first baseman is set to take his place on the major-league club following the Thursday trade of Lucas Duda to the Rays. After a crisp climb through the ranks, Smith has nothing left to prove at the highest minors level given his .337/.390/.524 line with 15 homers, 68 RBI and 72 runs scored across 449 plate appearances this year. Fantasy owners who still can grab him should do so as soon as possible.

devers is the real deal holyfield.

sox/yanks setting up for a nice throwback to the 70's with homegrown talent, setting them up for a few years of what i hope to be a renewed hatred.

Its kinda amazing the Sox arent where the O's or Jays are in the division, when you look at that lineup...Even Mookie has been sub-par by his standards

This is why Chris Sale is the AL MVP
