why not, they are paying a crap load of money to do nothing.

 

all that crap that he was involve in must have died away by now.

 

They also fired him, and would have to convince him to come back.

Rockies prospect David Dahl has likely concussion, broken rib after an awful on-field collision, per club source. Possible ruptured spleen.

That's a shame. He was demolishing AA.

#Astros looking at rotation upgrades, with Aaron Harang and Johnny Cueto as possibilities: http://sbnation.com/e/8453046?utm_campaign..._source=twitter

 

I'm surprised Harang's still hanging on these past few years. Although I'd say the bulk of his effectiveness this year is probably going to end soon. The regression is coming.

Oh the media would revive that mess. Supposedly it would offend people who live here and are waiting for things to improve back home. I bet Ozzie would turn them down anyway,

 

BTW that situation with managers seems so "White Sox" except firing during the season.

 

Trying to get a former experienced manager still drawing a salary is probably hard to do.

anything to do with ozzie makes my skin crawl.

Example #1A of what the slider does to your arm.

Strasburg looked like he grimaced after last pitch (his 16th), but not apparent exactly where injury is.

 

William Ladson ‏@washingnats 28m28 minutes ago

Something is wrong with #Strasburg. He is now out of the game.

Rafael Soriano is leaving agent Scott Boras, per source familiar with the situation. He wants to sign with a team. He's still a free agent.

It was a good trade, but has anyone noticed how good Hector Santiago has been this year? ERA down to 2.23

Good for him. Always liked him. Great trade for all teams involved it looks like.

Donnie Veal just gave a 2-Run HR to Joe Panik.

Source: Eric Stults staying with #Dodgers organization by accepting outright assignment to AA Tulsa. LA gets depth they wanted in trade.

#Dodgers acquired Stults from #Braves, immediately DFA'd and snuck through waivers. Hoped he'd stay in organization, and he will.

7 qualified pitchers have ERA under 2.00 this season. Via @EliasSports: That is most such pitchers entering June in a season since 1984 (9)

The Brewers and Marlins had a combined .365 winning percentage when they fired their managers. Their new managers have a combined .359 winning percentage.

Doesn't this mean that the Brewers have significantly improved?

The main thing that doesn't make me regret losing Hector (beyond what we got back for him) is that he's still nearly the most flyball-heavy starting pitcher in baseball and that just won't work in our ballpark over the long term.

They are 10-16. That's still not good. Looks like the losing isn't on the manager. You can think the .280 winning pct. would have continued with the old manager, but you would more than likely be wrong.

As of today, Ryan Howard still has approximately $51.7 million left on his contract through next year, including the 2017 buyout.

Considering we just played a week without at least one of our top 2 hitters, I'll take it.
