After becoming the first casualty of MLB’s new draft lottery, the Oakland A’s watched five of the best prospects in baseball get drafted ahead of them on Sunday night.Despite having the second-worst record (60-102) last year, the A’s drew the sixth selection in the 2023 MLB Draft in the inaugural lottery, then chose Jacob Wilson, a 21-year-old shortstop from Grand Canyon University.“It’s a dream come true,” Wilson said on MLB Network. “This is a moment I’ve been waiting for for a long time now.”Wilson hits and throws right-handed. He’s considered a solid overall player who can hit for power and average, has average speed and is an acceptable defensive shortstop, though some think he could eventually shift over to third base.Here’s part of the scouting report on Wilson from MLB.com: “He might be one of the better pure hitters in the class, one who consistently finds the barrel and struck out just seven times in 275 plate appearances as a sophomore. He’s starting to tap into his...Family contracts COVID on board Ruby Princess cruise

SEATTLE (AP) — The Pittsburgh Pirates selected hard-throwing LSU right-handed pitcher Paul Skenes with the top pick in baseball’s amateur draft on Sunday night, with teammate Dylan Crews going No. 2 to the Washington Nationals. Skenes went 12-3 with 209 strikeouts in 122 innings in helping lead the Tigers to the College World Series championship. The pick was announced by Hall of Famer Ken Griffey Jr., the top pick of the 1987 draft by the Seattle Mariners. Skenes was the first college pitcher selected No. 1 overall since Casey Mize by Detroit in 2018.For the second time in three years, the Pirates held the top overall selection after picking catcher Henry Davis at the top of the 2021 draft. Davis made his major league debut last month for Pittsburgh.Skenes’ slot value is expected to be about $9.7 million. It seemed to be a debate between Skenes and Crews for the top pick. It didn’t take long for Crews to come off the board after hitting .426 with 18 home runs while play...Machado has 2 homers, 5 RBIs off Scherzer; Musgrove sharp as the Padres beat the Mets 6-2

SAN DIEGO (AP) — Manny Machado homered twice off Max Scherzer and drove in five runs for the San Diego Padres, who got six strong innings from Joe Musgrove to beat the New York Mets 6-2 Sunday and take two of three in a series between high-priced, yet underwhelming, teams.The teams came in buried in fourth place in their respective divisions with identical 42-47 records. The Padres head into the All-Star break with five wins in six games, while the Mets have lost two straight following a season-best six-game winning streak.The Mets and Padres have failed to live up to the enormous expectations brought on by their massive payrolls. After the 101-win Mets were eliminated in the wild-card round by the Padres, they went on a spending spree that sent their payroll soaring to a record $360 million. The Padres, who reached the NL Championship Series, have the third-highest payroll at about $250 million.The Padres got to Scherzer (8-3) right away and handed him his first loss since May 3 at...Sepp Straka wins John Deere Classic by 2 shots with final-round 62

NEW YORK (AP) — Hitting coach Dillon Lawson was fired by the New York Yankees after Sunday’s 7-4 loss to the Chicago Cubs, a rare midseason change by a franchise that has prized stability since Hal Steinbrenner took over from his father as controlling owner.New York’s .231 batting average is 28th among the 30 major league teams, ahead of only Detroit and Oakland. The Yankees are batting a major league-worst .218 in 31 games since Aaron Judge tore a ligament in his right big toe on June 3, going 14-17 and entering the All-Star break in fourth place of the AL East 49-42.No replacement was announced.“It has been well documented that I have been reluctant in the past to make changes to our coaching staff in the middle of a season,” general manager Brian Cashman said. “I am a big believer that successes and failures are collective efforts. However, I ultimately felt that a change was needed and that a new voice overseeing our hitting operations would give us the best chance t...Balean a 9 personas en Cleveland; buscan al sospechoso
