Phelps dominates in Tampa debut

Game 96 Spillover Thread
Yanks put up an 8-spot for 8th straight win

Chase Weems was placed on the temporary inactive list. That just means he’ll be out briefly, so maybe he’s got a wedding to go to or something, and since he’s a catcher they needed to add someone to the roster.

Jesus Montero placed seventh on Baseball American’s Prospect Hot Sheet, but Andrew Brackman made the not so hot sheet.
