The Boston Red Sox have fired manager Alex Cora and several coaches in a dramatic, van-driven exit that has left the organization in disarray—despite a 17-1 win. The chaos comes as fantasy managers must avoid pitchers from the Diamondbacks and Padres, who are playing in Mexico City’s high elevation, where baseballs fly farther than at Coors Field. Meanwhile, hitters like Sal Stewart, Julio Rodríguez, and Yvonne Herrera are heating up, with Herrera hitting a 430-foot home run to become eligible at catcher. On the mound, Cole Reagans delivered a dominant 11-strikeout performance, while Mason Miller is on pace to match Francisco Rodríguez’s legendary 62-save season—despite a 4.00 ERA at that point. The Braves bullpen imploded in a 10th-inning collapse, and Riley O'Brien blew his first save of the year. The top fantasy matchup? Aaron Nola vs. Chris Sale in a marquee Phillies-Braves showdown.
