Good morning everyone! It was a pretty light day for news yesterday, as is the case with most Sundays. But we’ve still got some stuff to get your Monday started.
In playoff news...
- Carlos Correa’s extra-innings walk-off blast against the Yankees led Houston to a 3-2 victory to even up the series in the ALCS.
In Mariners news...
- Jason Churchill at Prospect Insider wonders if the Mariners should explore the possibility of trading for Francisco Lindor.
Around the league...
- Dusty Baker might be getting back in the game soon; the Phillies are planning to interview the former Giants, Cubs, Reds, and Nationals manager.
- This is an interesting development.
Carlos Beltran said the Padres and Cubs want to interview him for manager job, but he isn’t going to take the meetings. He only wants the Mets job. “I’m ready,” he said.
