Summary
Segments 1 and 2 – Review of the Weekend games
Additional Comments:
1.Trey Gibson making his Major League debut today. Let’s see how he’s doing?
2.Jasson Dominguez got the call earlier this week with Giancarlos Stanton hitting the IL? Will he get enough at-bats to warrant picking up.
a.The Yankees need to decide on what to do with Anthony Volpe on Monday. I’ve seen him play four games, I think. Whatever it was, he didn’t get a hit in any of them. Overall, he has played ok - .270 BA with a home run. Will the Yankees really mess with things and move Cabs off shortstop. He’s a better defender there than Volpe.
3.Ryan Helsley hits the IL with elbow inflammation. The initial diagnosis is no structural damage. How much would you be spending on Andrew Kittredge this weekend?
4.I started Zack Wheeler against the Marlins and held my breath. He was good – fastball still a bit off, but better (93.6 mph – off 0.7 mph). Last week, his velo was off by almost 2 mph. Still getting plenty of whiffs though. He’s got the Athletics this week in Philadelphia. Are you starting him?
5.The Red Sox get more bad news with their Ace going down with a sore shoulder. Reports indicate there are no structural damage.
a.I guess this gives Tolle more of a run. Anybody else?
6.Brandon Woodruff hits the IL after a HUGE drop in velocity. Another shoulder issue.
a.Anyone of interest in Milwaukee?
i.Logan Henderson? Robert Gasser?

| 0:36.7 | This might not have hit the wires yet but ben rice came out of |
| 0:41.2 | the game so what what happened what happened there so it was a little pop up that he hit that landed fair |
| 0:50.6 | and he legged it into a double didn't look like he was laboring and came into score on judges' home run and then they took |
| 0:58.8 | him out and they've been trying to figure out what's happening at all kinds of camera angles. |

| 1:13.3 | Well, that's always a good thing. |
| 1:16.0 | That's a good starting point. |

| 1:31.4 | But for those patron members, I said when I did my draft targets in December, I said, |
| 1:38.7 | whatever you do, do not leave the draft without Ben Rice. |
