The phrase “Free Trevor Bauer” has been popularized by ESPN analyst Keith Law in recent week. Bauer, the third overall pick in last summer’s draft out of UCLA, is widely thought of as a guy who could have started the season in the majors. The Diamondbacks took the conservative route with Bauer, and started him […]

Yu Darvish had his finest start as a member of the Rangers, and it came against the high octane Yankees lineup. Darvish went 8 1/3 innings without allowing a run, allowing seven hits and two walks, and striking out ten Yankees hitters in the process. Perhaps more importantly, he got 12 groundball outs to only […]

Earlier today, the Mets placed left fielder Jason Bay on the 15-day DL. The hits keep on coming, as the team has also placed starter Mike Pelfrey on the DL with swelling in his right elbow. Pelfrey really hasn’t lived up to the high expectations placed on him by the New York media after being […]

Jason Bay’s injury-laden Mets career took another downward swing on Tuesday, when he was placed on the 15-day DL with a nondisplaced fracture in a rib on his left side. This news courtesy of the MLB Twitter account. Bay has been extremely disappointing since signing a four year, $66 million contract prior to the 2010 […]

After last night’s 7-2 loss to the Dodgers, the Braves demoted starting pitcher Jair Jurrjens to AAA Gwinnett. Jurrjens, who was an All-Star last season after a fantastic first half of the season, just hasn’t been good since the break last year. In the second half of last season, he made just seven starts while […]

In this New York Post article, the Yankees are apparently pissed off about StubHub ticket prices. Namely, that they’re too low. The cheapest tickets for next week’s series with the Orioles are going for as low as $2.50 each, and the team is angry that fans can just go to StubHub and buy tickets for […]

Jake Peavy has really looked like his former self so far this season, and the cherry on top of the sundae came last night against the A’s. Peavy threw a complete game shutout against Oakland, allowing three hits and two walks, and striking out five hitters. He threw that shutout on just 107 pitches, too. […]

Former Giants, Phillies, and White Sox outfielder Aaron Rowand is getting a custom chopper and is being featured on the Discovery TV show American Chopper. The trailer, released today on Discovery’s Youtube channel, features Rowand visiting the shop and discussing what he wants his custom bike to look like. Hilariously, Rowand introduces himself as a […]

It’s April, the season is about 10% completed, and sample sizes across the league are small. So of course, the MLB has released the All-Star ballot for you to vote on already. I remember when I was a kid, the ballots would come out in May. I’d go to games at Veterans Stadium with my […]

Two of the four ten win teams in the National League will do battle this week in Los Angeles, as the Braves continue a west coast road trip against the Dodgers. The Braves have had a more difficult start to their schedule than the Dodgers, though neither teams have exactly played an All-Star schedule. The […]

Over the first two weeks of the MLB season, the Los Angeles Dodgers were the toast of the town. The team was 9-1 through its first ten games, though many just looked at that record as opposed to the quality of the opposition. A six game road trip concluded yesterday with a 12-0 shellacking in […]
