2011 Fantasy Baseball Daily Fix: Jeter's Pursuit Of 3,000 On Hold, Mike Trout Promoted & More
Nineteen year-old Mike Trout, the top prospect in baseball, was promoted to the Big Show for last night’s Angels game. The youngster went 0-for-3 at the plate, but made an incredible running catch in his Major League debut. Trout should be owned in all formats.
Rickie Weeks smacked an inside-the-park home run last night, his 17th of the season. Not sure those would count for his upcoming appearance in the Home Run Derby during the All-Star Game.
Big Surprise: David O’Brien of the AJC is
reporting that Chipper Jones is considering missing the All-Star Game due to a right knee injury.Travis Snider is doing all he can to prove he belongs on the Blue Jays roster. Friday night certainly helped his case going 3-5 with a home run 5 RBI. Since rejoining the team on July 4th, Snider is 9-22.
Rajai Davis swiped his 23rd & 24th bag of the season.
Aramis Ramirez tear continues, hitting his 11th home run in the past 15 games. Through that run he is batting .381 with 17 RBI.
We didn't even have to wait until after the All-Star Break for Hanley Ramirez to come around. He went 3-3, a home run and 3 RBI.
Zach Britton, maybe you should give a call to Madison Bumgarner or Jaime Garcia and see how they coped with some of the worst performances ever. Boston demolished Britton, as he only lasted 2/3 of an inning and gave up 7 earned runs.
Josh Beckett left the Red Sox-Orioles game early for precautionary reasons with an apparent left knee injury.
Scott Sizemore hit his 3rd home run in the last 6 games.
Javy Guerra (3), David Hernandez (7), Jose Valverde (23), Mat Capps (14), Leo Nunez (24), Joel Hanrahan (26) and Huston Street (25) each earned saves last night.
The pitching duels I’m looking forward to watching tomorrow: Tommy Hanson @ Cliff Lee, David Price @ AJ Burnett, Daniel Hudson @ Chris Carpenter and Johnny Cueto @ Shawn Marcum.
