Imagine if the Orioles release Chris Davis and the Yankees pick him up. You know he's going to start hitting .300 and homers every day. Cuz that's how it's been
This offense is so good that they have someone in the minors (Clint Frazier) who has proven he can hit in the big leagues. That whenever someone goes down and you think he'd get a call up. Only to have someone else come up and still perform at a high level
So the Yankees are playing at the Field of Dreams next year?!?! After a little research, it looks like it won't be the actual field and will be on they make nearby. I want to go! Assume it is impossible though.

Big series this weekend.
Reminds me of that scene from "The Other Guys"
An absolute smoking and still tied for the most wins in baseball. Fortunately the Astros are on a little skid
9.5 up in the division
3.5 up on the astros, assuming the result holds
1 up on the dodgers
Tough road trip ahead. Next weekend should be a lot of fun
