Most models show it moving into the Gulf of Mexico and then coming ashore and crossing the state, possibly moving over Northeast Florida.

Sarah Hirshland, the CEO of USOPC, told The Associated Press on...

Since being traded, Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Austin Hays has solidified his role as an everyday starter. Initially, it was anticipated that Hays would platoon with Brandon Marsh in left field. However, a day after the trade, Phillies manager Rob Thomson indicated Hays would be the starting left fielder. So far Marsh has been primarily playing center field instead of platooning with Johan Rojas. Nick Castellanos being in right field most days has been the most stable part of the Phillies outfield this season. A Hays-Marsh-Castellanos outfield going from left to right will be the standard alignment.
