But ever since the Red Sox signed him on August 18, he's torn it up. He's slashing .350/.417/.600, good for a 179 OPS+. His defense has improved as well; according to Baseball-Reference, he had -13 Total Zone runs and -5 Defensive Runs Saved for Washington, but for Boston, those totals are at 1 and 0, respectively. He suddenly looks like his old self (better, in fact), a player who might make a real difference on a team in the midst of a competitive playoff race.

The 23-14 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs marked the sixth time in franchise history -- and second straight year -- that Houston had fallen in the divisional round, a place in the playoffs that they had not been beyond. But the Texans' owners had a contrasting feeling from the previous year when they were battered by the Baltimore Ravens -- a 34-10 loss where the offense failed to score a touchdown.

It appears that rookies Colson Montgomery and Chase Meidroth have secured their spots as middle infielders, with an outside chance that Montgomery moves to third base down the line.

In addition, he was the only player not to wear a jersey during the game. Schottenheimer said if a decision needs to be made, the team will handle it internally. "Without talking to Micah, I need to figure out what he was doing and why he was doing it," Schottenheimer said on a conference call Saturday.

The rumor mill is heating up around New York Giants backup quarterback Jameis Winston, and understandably so. But he is not going anywhere assistant general manager Brandon Brown is making it very clear. I appreciate people that are interested, but Jameis is a New York Giant, Brown said. With the way that he's gone about his business from day one, he's made it very intentional with the fact that he wants to be here and he wants to be here for the long haul.

"Shopping and shipping off Smith in a trade to the Pittsburgh Steelers would indicate we're getting close to purging the roster again, reminiscent of 2019's disastrous rebuild."

The Chicago White Sox face tough roster decisions as veterans come off the IL, with implications for the future of various players on the team.
