If only there was a team in their own division with a young hardthrowing pitcher who skipped an MRI and ended up with a severe injury (possibly worsened by pitching after the initial injury).

The Yankees just scored a run on a triple play.

Zastryzny is back at Iowa and is getting the start tonight.

Waino to the DL with back soreness.

Jeimer Candelario actually came in at 93 on MLB's top 100 list. Crazy.

Brailyn Marquez with a great start: 5.1 IP, 5 H, 1 ER, 0 BB, 7 K

If you guys don't have plans on August 20th:

The bullpen is really scuffling.

Obligatory "but he's been good lately' post that seems to be made every time he gives up a run When he started giving up runs again two weeks ago, that statement was fine. Now he sucks again. Have no idea why Maddon let Hendricks go out for the 5th.

Strasburg has arm stiffness.

Did anyone else notice Rondon hit 100 tonight?

After 6 scoreless from Assad in a 0-0 game, Erlich Bachman made his pro debut and has let the first 4 on.

The song about getting drunk fits the Cardinals so well. [tweet] [/tweet]

Tied for first. 2 up on the Brewers in the loss column. And 5 games over .500 for the first time all season.

Till the next time the Cubs play the Cardinals.

Centerfield WTP is frustrating.

Lol, not even in the 10th inning of Game 7 of the World Series.
