    Los Yankees de Nueva York dieron a sus lanzadores un informe de exploración inusual esta semana: Denle al jardinero central de los Rays de Tampa Bay, Chandler Simpson, un buen lanzamiento para batear. No intenten inducir un contacto débil.

    The New York Yankees gave their pitchers an unusual scouting report this week: Give Tampa Bay Rays center fielder Chandler Simpson a good pitch to hit. Don't try to induce weak contact.

    The Boston Red Sox never know what Kristian Campbell will do next. He might dive to his left or spin to his right at second base to make a play that makes his teammates gasp, as he did so often this spring that he forced his way onto the major league roster. He might become the 14th player in the last 50 years to reach base safely in his first 17 career games, as he did Monday with a solo home run. Or he might say something that leaves the clubhouse reeling, as he does just about every day.

The fastest man in baseball is driving opponents crazy and rewriting what’s possible. “His whole game is a problem.” https://t.co/KvQEsYGEj8

The Yankees were thrilled to learn they’re allowed to grow beards now. Their wives … less so. “You’re still shaving.” On a hirsute era that does not suit her: https://t.co/aeq3ydb8fm
