Two immigrants from south of the border told the City Council Monday they were harassed when using hotel vouchers for shelter in Denver. Speaking through an interpreter, Leivy Ortega and Henry Aguilar said they received vouchers for hotel stays from an unnamed non-profit. But they had problems using the vouchers, they said. Ortega said she came to Denver from Connecticut and lived in her car for 15 days. She received a three-day hotel voucher, she said, but hotel staff initially would not honor it. She did not name the hotel. She said staff finally looked at her paperwork and gave her a room, but they wanted to charge her. for it. She said they initially weren’t going to allow her to stay because she has a service animal.

The Tigers have selected Randall with the 85th overall pick in the 2024 First-Year Player Draft. A high school catcher, Randall converting to pitching at the University of Arizona before transferring to San Diego, where he emerged at the Friday night starter. The right-hander can pound the strike zone with a heavy sinker and above-average slider, and while his profile does suggest a future as a high-leverage reliever, Detroit will likely give him every chance to develop as a starter.

The Phillies have selected Mathison with the 162nd overall pick in the 2024 First-Year Player Draft. A lefty-hitting outfielder from Indiana, Mathison is a plus runner with a chance to be an above-average defensive outfielder. He is power-over-hit, but neither tool projects to be better than average. He hasn't put his speed to use much on the bases, stealing just 16 on 20 attempts during his Big Ten career.

The Yankees have selected Ziehl with the 119th overall pick in the 2024 First-Year Player Draft. A righty from Miami, Ziehl moved to the rotation and held his own thanks to a solid three-pitch mix. He's a bit undersized from a height standpoint (6-foot) but at 223 pounds, he may be able to handle a starter's workload. His slider is his best secondary pitch to go with a low-90s fastball (touches 97 mph).

The Nationals have selected Kent with the 108th overall pick in the 2024 First-Year Player Draft. The 6-foot-3 left-hander made the move from relief work to starting duty this spring for Arizona and didn't see the quality of his arsenal take much of a hit with the transition. He sported a fastball this spring that typically sat around the low 90s, and he complemented it with a quality changeup and a low-80s slider and mid-70s curveball. Even so, Kent's lack of plus stuff keeps his long-term ceiling relatively low as he makes the jump to the pro ranks.

The Tigers have selected Penney with the 147th overall pick in the 2024 First-Year Player Draft. A lefty-hitting third baseman from Notre Dame, Penney didn't have a great junior season (.269 average, nine homers in 52 games) and his college production actually peaked as a freshman, when he hit .288 with a .996 OPS in 39 games. He doesn't have loud tools or a high ceiling for fantasy.
