    Tarik Skubal said he texted injured Guardians DH David Fry after the game. "I’ve already reached out to him. I’m sure his phone’s blowing up. I just want to make sure he’s all right. He seemed okay coming off the field, and hopefully it stays that way. "I look forward to,

    Tarik Skubal said he recently got a call from Yankees starter Max Fried. "He asked me if I wanted to start (the ASG)." Skubal deferred to Fried, especially since Fried had pitched for eight seasons in Atlanta. But Fried was insistent: "I think you deserve it. I was just

    Tigers GM Al Avila just announced that Spencer Torkelson will make the Opening Day roster. Miguel Cabrera presented him with a first baseman's glove in what Avila said was an emotional moment in A.J. Hinch's office.

RE: Alteration of Yankees facial hair policy

In recent weeks I have spoken to a large number of former and current Yankees - spanning several eras - to elicit their perspectives on our longstanding facial hair and grooming policy, and I appreciate their earnest and varied feedback.

It is the appropriate time to move beyond the familiar comfort of our former policy.

    The Tigers (87-75) and Astros (87-75) finished with the same record. So arguably the Tigers' most important game of the year was a 1-0 win over the Astros with a walk-off walk in the 10th inning on Aug. 19. (That was the Skubal-Hunter Brown duel).
