Matthew Boyd Will Pitch for Team USA!

The last decade has been a journey for Matthew Boyd, from trying to break through as a young starter with the Tigers, to suffering injuries and trying to make it back with the Mariners as a reliever, to returning to the Tigers as a starter, to having surgery and making it back with the Guardians, to breaking out as an All-Star with the Cubs this past season.

Hall of Fame Poll: Roger Clemens

The next one up would be Shin-Soo Choo, but even though he had a good 16-year career, I don’t think many would see him as a Hall of Fame type. Choo played in 1652 games, hit .275/.377/.447 with 218 home runs, 157 steals and 782 RBI. He played in one All-Star game and got MVP […]
