8/24 10:00 AM Yordan Alvarez (DH-HOU) Yordan Alvarez's Triple Crown bid will have to survive a major challenge from the AL East. Houston's Yordan Alvarez currently leads the American League with a .320 average, 36 home runs and 90 RBIs. If he holds onto the top spot in all three categories, he’d be the first batter to win the Triple Crown since Miguel Cabrera in 2012. The biggest threats Alvarez faces all come from the AL East. The next-highest batting averages in the AL both belong to Tampa Bay players — Chandler Simpson at .310 and Yandy Díaz at .306. Tampa Bay’s Junior Caminero just one home run behind with 35. Ben Rice of the New York Yankees has 34. Alvarez’s closest competition in RBIs is Baltimore’s Pete Alonso, who has 85.

It’s not all bad news that you don’t have Nick Martinez on any teams. If you drafted him instead of Paul Skenes in the 2nd round, your leaguemates would’ve lured you into Patrick’s basement. (Patrick is your leaguemate and the stock broker who keeps trying to get you in his fund, and you’re like, “Patrick, I’ll run it by the missus,” and you never mention it to her, because you know Patrick is an idiot.) Please, blog, may I have some more?
