The MVPs of the weekend are…
Friday: Carlos Gonzalez, who went 5-5 with a double and triple.
Saturday: Yovani Gallardo, who went 8 and one-third innings of shutout ball for the Rangers.
Sunday: Mets legend (after one game) Steven Matz, who went 7 and two-thirds innings while becoming the first pitcher AND the first Met (of any position) to have three hits and four RBIs in a debut.
Standings, as always, after the jump:
Perfect until the 8th inning, Marco Estrada is a easy choice for MVP of Yesterday.

The MVPs of the last two days? Albert Pujols and tough-luck-loser Madison Bumgarner.

The MVPs of the Weekend (and also last Thursday) are…
June 18: Yunel Escobar (2nd of year)
June 19: Albert Pujols
June 20: Max Scherzer (duh, 2nd of the year)
June 21: J.D. Martinez
Standings, as always, after the jump:
Tommy Milone allowed one earned run, but he had a nice 0.4 WAR for yesterday and allowed only 5 hits in 7 innings from a very good Cardinals team. So, the Twins pitcher is the MVP of Yesterday.
Standings, as always, after the jump:
Brock Holt hit for the cycle yesterday, keying a losing-streak-breaking win for the Red Sox.
Standings, as always, after the jump:
The MVP of Yesterday was Francisco Liriano, who went 8 innings, struck out 12, and gave up only two hits.

I’m back! Miss me?
June 10th had an MVP in… Yasiel Puig.
June 11th’s MVP was…. Scott Kazmir.
June 12th’s MVP was… Justin Smoak.
June 13th’s MVP was… C.J. Wilson
And yesterday’s MVP was Max Scherzer, who was awesome.

It was going to take a lot to have baseball get much attention last night. I mean, the NBA finals were on and had another close game, Marvel announced that The Punisher would be in the next season of Daredevil (that’s going to be SO AWESOME), and, of course, there is the day-to-day news- politics, the weather, crime, etc.
And it would have seemed even less likely that Chris Heston of the Giants would be the one to draw attention. I mean, Bryce Harper was playing in Yankee Stadium! Tanaka vs. Scherzer! The Mets-Giants game wasn’t even the biggest baseball game in New York City!
But, nope, Chris Heston, a rookie, went and threw a no-hitter, and had two hits and 2 RBIs as well! He struck out 11 and, for the first time in at least a hundred years, hit three batters with pitches.
So, obviously, he’s the MVP of Yesterday. Standings after the jump.
