      Nice win and even better story! To make it even better, Cutch went yard as the Buccos beat the Cubs, 7-5.

      Great stuff!


      After arriving by helicopter and landing right on the field in PNC Park, Cameron Pittman was surprised by his hero, Andrew McCutchen.

        Advice: After dominating at every level, the Yankees are finally ready to see what their No. 1 prospect is made of. The 21-year-old was brilliant in his last start for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, tallying 10 strikeouts over six one-hit innings. Bryan Mitchell will lose his spot in the starting rotation when Severino arrives.
        He pitched really well 5 innings 94 pitches 2 hits no BB gave up 1 earned run and an unearned run on a 2base headley error.

            The Twins called up Tyler Duffey to make his major league debut yesterday, against the Blue Jays in Toronto. It did not go well to say the least:

              16-year-old French phenom gets base hit

              Melissa Mayeux, the first woman added to MLB's international registration list, got a hit during her debut game at the Elite Development Camp in the Netherlands. She hopes to play for France in the 2017 World Baseball Classic.

              think a woman ever makes the majors?

                    What the heck happened with Fister. Just dropped off bad this year.

                    Nationals manager Matt Williams announced Thursday that Doug Fister will be moved to the bullpen.

                    With Stephen Strasburg set to return from the disabled list on Saturday, it'll be Fister who is the odd-man out, leaving Joe Ross to keep a spot in the team's rotation. The 31-year-old hurler has posted a troublesome 4.60 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 48/18 K/BB ratio over 86 innings. He'll look to get back on track in middle relief.

                      Fister has been horrible all year long, Strasburg hasn't been very good either but has pitched well in this rehab assignment, maybe he can turn things around.

                        Agree... I believe 'Shortstop' will be @ the Bucs game.

                            You bet, k-m! We're heading down to PNC in a few minutes...

                            I haven't been this pumped for a game since last year's Wild Card game here!

                                I hope Strasburg pitches like he did in May.

                                  Of all the great rookies, it may surprise some that Jung Ho Kang has the second highest WAR at 3.4 (Matt Duffy has the highest, 3.6). His performance helps his buddy from the Nexen Heroes, Byung-Ho Park, as executives will realize these guys can play.

                                              Making his first start since being placed on the disabled list in early July, Stephen Strasburg was dominant on Saturday, holding the Rockies to one run on three hits over seven innings in the 6-1 win.

                                              Strasburg allowed a double to Charlie Blackmon to open the game, but he prevented Blackmon from scoring and cruised from that point on. Five of the first nine outs he recorded came via the strikeout and he fanned 12 total batters over his seven innings on the mound. Overall, Strasburg is pitching to a 4.76 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 75/18 K/BB across 68 innings, but if he can stay healthy, he remains a high-upside fantasy commodity. A road start against the Giants is up next on his schedule as he tries to find his groove for the stretch run.

                                                I have him in a couple leagues, hopefully the layoff was just what he needed to get back to his old self and he can keep up the good pitching for the rest of the season.

                                                  David Price 7 innings no runs. Almost gave up some in the 7th. Solid elite starter. Should get a win almost everytime he pitches

                                                              Jose Fernandez's biceps strain could have been worse for Marlins

                                                              By David Brown | Baseball Writer

                                                              August 9, 2015 7:17 pm ET


                                                              With his Tommy John surgery still fresh in our minds, and not all that long ago on his right elbow, we braced ourselves for more bad news with Jose Fernandez. It turns out the news --while not good -- could have been much worse.
                                                              Fernandez sustained a right biceps strain, the Miami Herald reported Sunday, and the Marlins aren't sure how long he'll be out. They're placing Fernandez on the 15-day disabled list, but manager Dan Jennings says he hopes Fernandez will pitch again before the 2015 season ends. Fernandez has made seven starts this season, after making eight in 2014, because of elbow ligament reconstruction a year ago May.
                                                              Clark Spencer says the Marlins were fearing something worse than a muscle strain this time:
                                                              Fernandez returned Saturday to Miami, where he was diagnosed with a biceps strain after undergoing a MRI. No structural damage to his shoulder was detected.
                                                              “I spoke to Jose this morning,” Jennings said. “I think he definitely has peace of mind. Hopefully, the inflammation will go out of there and we can get him healthy, get him back.”
                                                              It was encouraging news for Fernandez and the Marlins. Fernandez, who returned in early July from Tommy John surgery, complained of stiffness in his right shoulder one day after going five innings and throwing 76 pitches on Friday against the Braves.
                                                              Jennings said the recovery timetable for Fernandez's type of injury varies, and it's uncertain exactly when he could return.
                                                              “I think we have to be smart, where we are in this season,” Jennings said. “He's worked extremely hard. You guys know how competitive he is, and what it means for him to take the ball and go out and pitch. But we won't do it until we know he's back 100 percent. There's no need to push it or rush
                                                              The next thought that pops into one's head might be to just skip the rest of the season and start fresh in 2016. Don't take any chances. And there might not be any harm in playing it safe. Pitchers just out of Tommy John recovery usually have some kind of limit on their workload in the ensuing season. The Washington Nationals, you might recall, shut down Stephen Strasburg at 159 innings in 2012 as part of his Tommy John recovery. And that was during a 98-win season that ended, possibly prematurely, in the playoffs when Strasburg was deemed to be not available. The Marlins have no such kind of considerations; they're 43-68 and trying to not finish with the worst record in the majors.

                                                                      With his Tommy John surgery still fresh in our minds, and not all that long ago on his right elbow, we braced ourselves for more bad news with Jose Fernandez. It turns out the news --while not good -- could have been much worse.
                                                                      Fernandez sustained a right biceps strain, the Miami Herald reported Sunday, and the Marlins aren't sure how long he'll be out. They're placing Fernandez on the 15-day disabled list, but manager Dan Jennings says he hopes Fernandez will pitch again before the 2015 season ends. Fernandez has made seven starts this season, after making eight in 2014, because of elbow ligament reconstruction a year ago May.
                                                                      Clark Spencer says the Marlins were fearing something worse than a muscle strain this time:
                                                                      Fernandez returned Saturday to Miami, where he was diagnosed with a biceps strain after undergoing a MRI. No structural damage to his shoulder was detected.
                                                                      “I spoke to Jose this morning,” Jennings said. “I think he definitely has peace of mind. Hopefully, the inflammation will go out of there and we can get him healthy, get him back.”
                                                                      It was encouraging news for Fernandez and the Marlins. Fernandez, who returned in early July from Tommy John surgery, complained of stiffness in his right shoulder one day after going five innings and throwing 76 pitches on Friday against the Braves.
                                                                      Jennings said the recovery timetable for Fernandez's type of injury varies, and it's uncertain exactly when he could return.
                                                                      “I think we have to be smart, where we are in this season,” Jennings said. “He's worked extremely hard. You guys know how competitive he is, and what it means for him to take the ball and go out and pitch. But we won't do it until we know he's back 100 percent. There's no need to push it or rush
                                                                      The next thought that pops into one's head might be to just skip the rest of the season and start fresh in 2016. Don't take any chances. And there might not be any harm in playing it safe. Pitchers just out of Tommy John recovery usually have some kind of limit on their workload in the ensuing season. The Washington Nationals, you might recall, shut down Stephen Strasburg at 159 innings in 2012 as part of his Tommy John recovery. And that was during a 98-win season that ended, possibly prematurely, in the playoffs when Strasburg was deemed to be not available. The Marlins have no such kind of considerations; they're 43-68 and trying to not finish with the worst record in the majors.
                                                                      Ever read anything by Chris O'Leary? He thinks it's just a matter of time before shoulder issues.
