- The 74 day reign of Trey Mancini as the top overall score for the 2021 MLB Pick One Challenge has come to an end. That honor now belong's to Trevor's selection of the day, Rafael Ortega. Picking at the bones of the depleted Chicago Cubs, the new leadoff man went deep three times, as well as singling, against the equally diminished Nationals for 13 points.
- But while that massive day was enough to finally push him over 200 points for the year, it was not enough to get him into first place. However, first place isn't just a one man gang for the time being.
- Pavli used a three single day from a current Dodger, Will Smith, to get within three points of Al yesterday. With Omar Narvaez blanking, a three single day from a former LA player, Kike Hernandez, drew him level at the top despite Boston falling to Tampa Bay.
- Two deadline movers have been used over the past couple days and another was used today. Colin got a single from Anthony Rizzo in his Yankees Pick One debut. It was the first time he'd been picked in nearly two months.
