Yandy Diaz Smashes Homer, Breaks Bat
6 years agoThis isn't something that we see often. On Friday, Tampa Bay Rays third baseman Yandy Diaz blasted a home run off of Dereck Rodriguez, breaking his bat in the process. The third baseman completed his two-hit bid, racking up two RBI in the Rays win over the Giants. He'll continue to see everyday at-bats as Joey Wendle (hamstring) and Matt Duffy (hamstring) work on their rehab. Diaz is a solid candidate to hang onto the third base job in Tampa. He'll face some soft matchups in the White Sox and Blue Jays next week. He's a nice speculative add, at least while he's playing every day.
