Looking At The Young, Scorching Rookies
The boys are back, and here's what's on the docket today:
1. Rookies:
Two rookies take home player of the week honors.
Corbin Carroll: .311/.389/.579
13 homers, 19 steals, 3.1 WAR (6th in MLB)
*D-Backs are in 1st, haven’t won the west since 2011
Gunnar Henderson: .236/.349/.449
Is hitting .458 in June with 4 homers
Elly De La Cruz watch
- Fast home to third time on his triple
- He’s claiming he’s the fastest in the game, in the world? Thoughts on confidence of a young star?
2. The A's reverse boycott.
3. Cardinals
Falling farther down the standings, in a winnable division, should they consider selling on Goldschmidt and Arenado?
4. 2,000 hits
McCutchen gets there, Freeman is 8 away. Are either or both or neither hall of famers?
