Moved into my college dorm about a week and a half ago and strangely, this site doesn't work with the Internet provided. So I guess I'll be on here very very rarely these days. In the meantime, I...

Astros received infielder Tyler Greene from the Cardinals for a player to be named later or cash. Greene will provide some pop, speed, and experience to this Astros' patchworked infield.

Both quality and quantity. Vicente Padilla becomes the 24th Red Sox player to land on the DL this season, having biceps/triceps/groin issues. Clayton Mortenson is called up to replace Padilla.

Lawrie banged up again, this time with an oblique injury. He is placed on the 15 day DL.

Both Machado and Lew Ford within two weeks? This is too good. Now it's time to count down the days before Bundy makes an appearance.

Happy birthday!!!

Tim Byrdak, who was placed on the DL on August 2 with a sore shoulder, has a tear in his shoulder and may need to go under the knife, which would jeopardize his 2013 season.

Kirk Nieuwenhuis,...

Before Rizzo, there were these two folks. Brett Jackson and Josh Vitters called up yesterday to replace Jeff Baker (traded to DET) and Tony Campana (demoted to AAA). Jackson went 2-4 against LAD...

From trade bait to first aid. Matt Garza is placed on the 15 day DL and shut down indefinitely with stress reaction in his elbow. Garza won't throw for at least a couple of weeks but may still return...

AJ Griffin placed on 15 day DL with a strained right shoulder. McCarthy should return soon to replace his spot in the rotation.

John Danks had shoulder surgery Monday to repair a capsule tear and remove debris in his rotator cuff and biceps. He will miss the rest of the season but should recover in time for spring training in...

He is currently in the hall for a reason.

I'll vote yes.

Two bad ones? I guess Oswalt thinks allowing 5 runs and 13 hits in 6 innings is acceptable. He's delusional if he thinks a 5.82 ERA is good enough to be in the rotation. At one point this season,...

First gymnastics (speculatively), now badminton. At least the badminton players have been punished, but China as whole should be held accountable if this continues.

Burnett did have some good seasons with the Marlins, namely 2002 and 2005, but this is no doubt the best season of his career. His 3.27 ERA is tied for 11th in the NL and it is still heavily inflated...

Phelps has obviously regressed since 2008. It would've been nearly impossible to hold up those performances at Beijing. What was once an unmatched butterfly stroke is now "only" good enough for...

I feel like McDonald is starting to run out of juice, rather than luck. More hits, homers, and walks allowed usually does not translate well to that ERA. Luckily for the Pirates, Burnett's still...

This may not be the best reasoning, but Gallardo's susceptibility to give up walks and home runs, albeit not always in order, has always made me weary of him. I hate to go the Ricky Nolasco route and...

To continue the Miami firesale, the Marlins sent third baseman/shortstop Hanley Ramirez and relief pitcher Randy Choate to the LA Dodgers for starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi and minor league pitcher...

The slow and smooth delivery really makes the pitch look faster. I like the deceit.

I agree with all of ya. Do not rush or overuse this pitcher and have him develop other pitches as well. Esmil Rogers is one of the hardest throwing pitchers but lack of other pitches has made him...
