MIAMI (AP) — Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred says Aaron Judge is the kind of player “who can become the face of the game.” The New York Yankees rookie, who leads the major leagues with 30 home runs, won Monday night’s All-Star Home Run Derby. Speaking to the Baseball Writers’ Association of America today in Miami, Manfred called Judge “absolutely phenomenal,” saying he’s “a tremendous talent on the field and really appealing off the field.”

MIAMI (AP) — Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred says the Miami Marlins are soon expected to choose a winning bid from among three investment groups seeking to buy the team, and all have offered about the same amount of money. One investment group includes former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and Massachusetts businessman Tagg Romney. A second group is led by former New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter, a 14-time All-Star. The third group is led by South Florida businessman Jorge Mas.
