TIGERS’ BRICEÑO STAYS EN FUEGO
AFL Hot Sheet: Can Anyone Slow Down Josue Briceño?
We’re back with the Week 3 edition of our Arizona Fall League Hot Sheet, which is once again topped by Tigers slugger Josue Briceño.
With two more home runs this past week, the 20-year-old first baseman has vaulted himself atop the AFL’s leaderboard in that category. Briceño also leads the AFL in batting average (.438), slugging percentage (.958), hits (21), extra-base hits (9), total bases (46) and is tied for the top spot in triples (2).
Other Hot Sheet standouts this week include:
A Cubs catcher tied for third in the AFL in homers
A Mets outfielder who made history as the first player to have his checked-swing reviewed on video
A Reds righthander who struck out five in four scoreless innings

WELCOME BACK, BASEBALL FANS!
Welcome Back, Lapsed Baseball Fans. Do You Like What You See In 2024?
By J.J. Cooper
If you’re an average Baseball America reader, you settled down to watch the World Series on Friday and Saturday, whether you’re a Dodgers fan, a Yankees fan, a Pirates fan or a Royals fan.
You watch the postseason. It’s what you do as a baseball nut.
But the confluence of Aaron Judge, Shohei Ohtani, Dodgers and Yankees means that this World Series has likely gathered in some very casual baseball fans. Maybe there’s a sports fan who hadn’t watched a World Series since the Cubs ended their World Series drought in 2016.
So welcome back, long-lapsed baseball fan. What did you think? I’m guessing you may be surprised by just how enjoyable baseball in 2024 is to watch as a fan.
