A little more than a month ago, the Yankees raised eyebrows around MLB when it was reported that the team, in an attempt to upgrade their starting pitching rotation, put lefty Nestor Cortes on the trade block. Now, as the Yankees face a roster crunch with Luis Gil and Clarke Schmidt slated to return against the Cubs this weekend, Cortes will miss a start and be moved to the bullpen.

Pete Alonso’s rough night at the plate got worse when he whiffed for a third time Wednesday night at Citi Field and took his frustration out on his bat, as he snapped it over his leg as he walked back to the dugout.

It was the second time the first baseman wasn’t able to come through in a critical situation against the Red Sox, as Alonso also struck out with the bases loaded with no one out in the bottom of the first.

But it didn’t hurt the red-hot Mets who rolled to an 8-3 win over the Red Sox for their seventh straight victory.

Alonso, who went 0-for-4 with those three strikeouts, was bailed out by Jesse Winker, who followed with a grand slam.

In the eighth, with the Mets up by a run, Alonso came up with runners on first and second and went down swinging again — and his bat paid for it.

Heyward is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game in Cincinnati, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports. Heyward started the first two games after being signed by the Astros but has been in the lineup just once across the last four contests, with two of those coming against righties. The hot-hitting Ben Gamel is in right field Wednesday and looks to currently be higher in the pecking order than Heyward, although both players are likely to see their playing time cut when Kyle Tucker (shin) returns.

This happened at CBP at some point over the weekend:. “You’re a pussy! Get that motherfucker out of here!”. I spot three Ls right off the bat. 1) Braves fan is wearing a bucket hat. 2) He has pillow hands. He throws a right cross at a Phillies fan who is not defending himself, but doesn’t knock him down or do any real damage at all. 3) The cops are waiting for him at the top of the stairs. That’s gotta be embarrassing. You punch a guy, he takes it with no problem, then he gets the ‘ole police escort out of there.

Braves second baseman Whit Merrifield exited the game on Tuesday night in the 7th inning after getting hit in the back of the head with a 95mph fastball. Merrifield went to the ground but seemed to be OK all things considered, as he never lost consciousness and was able to walk off the field under his own power. We will await an update from the Braves after the game once Merrifield has undergone testing.

Gilbert Arenas on GOAT debate: ‘They will never bring up Michael Jordan because he’s not real today. He’s real like we know who he is but the only people who bring him up is when LeBron James’ name gets mentioned. That’s the only reason Michael Jordan’s relevant. They’re combating the stats… Once LeBron James is solidified ‘you are the GOAT’, Jordan swindles. That’s why people are like yo ‘why nobody talk about Kobe being a GOAT?’ Because he got surpassed already. There’s no point of talking about number three, it’s only one and two now.

Iglesias earned a save against the Rockies on Wednesday, allowing one walk while striking out two batters in one scoreless inning. Iglesias had a three-run lead to work with in the ninth frame and had little trouble taking care of business, issuing a harmless two-out walk and retiring the side on 15 pitches. The veteran closer picked up his 30th save of the campaign -- the fifth time he's reached that mark in his career. Iglesias has a shot of reaching his career-high tally of 34 saves, which he posted in both 2019 and 2021.
