I heard today on the radio that an MRI on Verlander's shoulder showed inflammation normal to pitchers but no damage. He'll likely miss his next start to rest it then back into the rotation they said.

Big day in the sport, as I think today is the day the select the new Commish.
Interested in who it will be, and what his plans for the game are.
Regardless of who it is, I hope their first move is to clean up this catcher blocking the plate nonsense.
Second move should be to declare the Mets a minor league team.

I think that already happened a few years ago, Dom.

Oakland has really fallen off of late.
You wonder if Billy Beane tinkered with the chemistry a bit too much by letting Cespedes go? Or were they just due for a losing streak?
7-8 since the deal.

BOSTON -- The Boston Red Sox have come to terms on a seven-year, $72.5 million deal for Cuban outfielder Rusney Castillo, a team source said Friday.

The contract is a record number in total dollars paid for a free-agent amateur. Castillo was en route to Boston on Friday, according to ESPN's Pedro Gomez, and was expected to undergo a physical on Saturday.

David Price has a great start for Detroit tonight . . . if you're a Yankee fan. He opened the third by giving up 9 straight hits. These, and some sac flies, gave NY 8 runs and the win.

Complete anthithesis of Price's last start. Oakland and KC both win. Bad day for Los Tigres.

And Avila helps the Tigers take the series from the nipping-at-their-heels Yankees.

Tigers move to a half game out in the AL Central, and into Wild Card #2 position. Verlander pitched decent, let's sweep those pesky White Sux.

Crazy shift in the Dodgers game last night.



5 Man infield, 4 on the right side.
I really don't get the shift. It's a defense that's easy to beat, so I'm not sure why more people don't go the other way?

If Papi could only hit it to the other side more consistently he'd be unstoppable, it's the hack a shaq of baseball.
