That was Alexander's 1st career W in the Major Leagues.

He needs 299 more to catch Early Wynn.

James Chandler "J.C." Shepherd is making his first-ever Major League start.

Shepherd was originally drafted out of high school in the 41st round by the White Sox, but chose instead to play college ball for Kentucky ........ the Red Sox drafted him in the 13th round 3 years later, in 2014. I'm guessing that his signing bonus (as well as the way in which he was regarded and handled by his drafting team) was significantly higher from waiting those 3 years instead of immediately signing out of high school.

Interesting lineup with Ruiz batting cleanup, but he is slugging .505 in the second half of the season. So maybe not as weird as I initially thought.

Don't get Mancini hitting third.

If we're going that route, I don't like Smith Jr batting second.

Too much batting, not enough hitting.

Interestingly his batting average hasn’t gone up and his OPS is still below .700.  Anyway I think this is the don’t catch the Marlins line up.

I'm guessing Davis gets one more start this weekend at home as a farewell. (At least I'm hoping for this outcome.)

Daring Dick Bleier makes his MLB career debut as a starting pitcher. 

He'll likely play the role of "Opener."
