The Rangers have had a weird season with injuries. Almost every time a player has come back from an injury, we’ve had the talk of “Well I guess the Rangers will have to choose between Forsythe and Santana.” And every time, they’ve gotten out of making that decision, mostly because of another

There wasn’t much to say about the Rays losing out on trading for American League homerun leader Edwin Encarnación when the Yankees first swept in to nab the player who seemed destined to join the Rays and bolster the team’s roster. But now that the dust has settled, Joel Sherman has some reflection

Will the A’s ever escape the dreaded .500 record? The world may never know. At the very least, with the Orioles coming into town, they have a better chance than usual. With a record of 21-50, and a league-worst run differential of -151, the Orioles are still in the “going to get worse before getting

Saldana leads DSL Rockies to 4-3 win over DSL Phillies Red , (AP) — Enrique Saldana tossed five scoreless innings, leading the DSL Rockies over the DSL Phillies Red in a 4-3 win on Monday. With the loss, the DSL Phillies Red snapped a six-game winning…

Washington Nationals’ shortstop Trea Turner extended his on-base streak to 12-straight games when he tripled in his first trip to the plate in Saturday’s game, and went 3 for 5 overall, leaving him 17 for 50 (.340/.400/.740) over the course of the streak. Turner had seven doubles, two triples

Unable to compete with the Minnesota Twins in the American League’s Central Division, the sort-of rebuilding Cleveland Indians are a team to watch as the July 31 trade deadline approaches. The good-pitch, no-hit Indians seem likely to be active participants at or near the deadline, but not as active

The good news is that every game, no matter how lopsided it is, only counts for one game in the standings. So yesterday’s shellacking at the hands of the Braves only counts for one loss. The bad news is that it was the second loss of the series for the Phillies, and they lost ground in the National

The Mariners have a chance to seriously further their season goals these next few games, as they host a Royals squad that currently holds the #2 draft spot in the loaded 2020 draft. Coming off an emotionally confusing series win against the A’s, it would probably help if they’d hurry up and send

If you’re the Oakland A’s, you can never have everything you want. You can’t even have most of what you want. Bryce Harper would have really helped this team. Ditto Charlie Morton, Michael Brantley, Dallas Keuchel, Craig Kimbrel… you get the idea. The same goes for when the A’s are acquiring

With just days remaining until the end of the first-round of All-Star voting, a pair of Los Angeles outfielders continue to lead the voting. Cody Bellinger of the Dodgers leads all vote-getters with 2,184,251, and the Angels’ Mike Trout tops the American League balloting with 1,904,273. First baseman

For the first time since taking the helm as Los Angeles Dodgers manager, Dave Roberts saw significant overturn to his coaching staff. Dino Ebel was among the new hires prior to the 2019 season, filling the void as third base coach. The position was pre…

The 2018 club had been a starting pitching beast, led by the contact management wondery of Miles Mikolas and the emerging strikeout punch of Jack Flaherty. Carlos Martinez was an early-season beast, but began to have shoulder issues that would ultimate…

The Seattle Mariners roared out of the gates in 2019 and by the third week of the season, they were the biggest story and the talk of the league. After sweeping the Royals in Kansas City, they were 13-2 and scoring runs by the dozens and hitting almost…
