Express Player-to-Watch:

Tonight we are going to change up how the competition works. Normally everyone gets to pick one player, and whoever’s player has the best game wins. However for our last game all three of us had the choice of three players from the lineup. To keep things far we used a snake draft with Wade having the first pick, Andrew second, and Will third. We will keep you updated throughout our ingame and postgame coverage on how things go.

Andrew: SS Luis Hernandez, OF Julio Borbon, & 3B Brandon Snyder

Wade: 1B Brad Nelson, DH Ryan Spilborghs, & 2B Yangervis Solarte

Will: OF Leonys Martin, OF Joey Butler, & C Luis Martinez
