MLB’s 12-team postseason bracket has already been whittled down to eight contenders. Now, the top two seeds from each league have joined the fray in the Division Series. After advancing directly to their ALDS and NLDS slots via byes, the Astros, Yankees, Dodgers and Braves are taking on challengers. Some of those challengers are proving more than worthy. In the National League, the top-seeded Dodgers and Braves will both stare down elimination on Saturday. The Phillies took a 2-1 series lead… Source link

Aaron Judge is the American League’s all-time single-season home run king. The New York Yankees superstar surpassed Roger Maris with his 62nd homer of 2022, a leadoff blast against the Texas Rangers in the penultimate game of the season on Tuesday. His torrid campaign, which will almost certainly earn him an AL MVP Award, has now cemented its place in history. Judge’s 2022 stands as the all-time power standard for the storied Yankees franchise and the AL. Nudging past history took a few… Source link

The following players are widely available in Yahoo Fantasy Baseball formats and may be worth grabbing, depending on your league’s depth. Hicks has three homers and two steals while batting .323 with more walks than strikeouts over eight games in July.

It should have been well within range for any right fielder worth his salt; MLB’s Statcast gave it an xBA of .010. Basically, a one percent chance of being a hit. That routine fly ball turned into an adventure,… Source link

Position players pitching is one of the most absurd things in sports. Yet it happens with regularity at the MLB level, where professional baseball teams on the wrong end of blowouts trot out most decidedly unprofessional pitchers to face big-league competition. Take, for instance, Frank Schwindel. The Chicago Cubs first baseman is a fine hitter and a solid source of power with eight home runs and 30 RBI in 56 games this season. He is not, however, a capable MLB pitcher. He found himself on the… Source link

Josh Donaldson said he was hurt after his New York Yankees teammates didn’t back him up following his “Jackie Robinson” comments directed at Chicago White Sox star Tim Anderson. Donaldson said on Wednesday that while he admits what he said about Anderson was wrong, hearing his own teammates bash him for it was disappointing. “I think that was tough to hear, for sure, just for the simple fact that I pride myself on being a good teammate, and everywhere I’ve went, every organization… Source link
