MLB

Retractable roofs are big, cool and expensive, and like any other big, cool and expensive thing ever made, they're prone to some annoying hiccups.

In the case of the retractable roof at Chase Field, it has some problems with its "being a roof" function—or, more specifically, the part where it shields those beneath it from the elements. 

The comedic impressions, the all-around goofiness and even the recent "Wild Thing" haircut have become staples of Derek Holland's public persona during his seven-year career. 

The MLB season has three weeks left, so feel free to spray-paint some graffiti over that old cliche: Come mid-September, baseball is no longer a marathon; it's a sprint. And here's what to watch:

1. Playing Dynasty: From San Francisco to St. Louis

Josh Donaldson and Bryce Harper are letting their bats and gloves do all the talking in the 2015 MLB MVP conversation.

While the Toronto Blue Jays third baseman and the Washington Nationals right fielder are the front-runners for baseball's most prestigious award in the American League and the National League, respectively, there's an assortment of other standouts who have also played their way into the MVP mix.

Washington Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper is the National League's Most Valuable Player, and there really shouldn't be any debate.

But, of course, there is. This is baseball we're talking about, and a baseball award no less—there will always be disagreement. That's part of the fun.

If you can remember as far back as early August, then you can remember a time when the American League West race was between the Houston Astros, Los Angeles Angels and nobody else.

Now, here we are to ask with total seriousness if the Texas Rangers have become the team to beat. Because baseball is weird like that.

All 30 MLB teams are playing on Tuesday, which means there are plenty of daily fantasy baseball options to choose from. However, you rarely can have a fantasy team full of superstars, so it's best to figure out which players have the opportunity to outplay their value.

Below is a table featuring the top three players at each position for Tuesday, followed by a list of five players to consider when balancing your fantasy baseball budget.

The San Francisco Giants' chances of making the postseason are slim enough as is, and they won't improve with news of an injury to Joe Panik.

While there's still plenty of baseball to be played—we've got two-plus weeks of the regular season to go and a full slate of playoff action yet to come—the upcoming offseason and free-agent market have begun to become visible on the horizon.

And what a free-agent market it's shaping up to be.

The regular season has less than three weeks left before the postseason begins, but there is still plenty of time left for daily fantasy baseball. Whether owners have already found success or finally build up a bankroll before the season ends, Monday night has options for any strategy.
