I'd be willing to let Bruce go, but if he's going to another NL contender the price would have to be astronomical.

So the Giants game isn't even delayed, but the A's game has already been cancelled "for rain" (aka: not wanting to play in an empty stadium with the Warriors playing next door).

He's a pretty solid 2B, although he's showing his age a little. He's been around forever.

Not a drat clue who Frandy De La Rosa is though.

So O's Trey Mancini went yard twice against the Jays.

After his 2nd dinger, O's OF Gentry, needing some voodoo, borrowed Mancini's bat and hit one. After Gentry hit one, Machado, always alert to a good thing, borrowed the bat and hit another.

I think we can more or less stick a fork in the Blue Jays.

The Mariners, on the other hand, are on the upswing.

Was this bat purchased at a Sammy Sosa garage sale by any chance?

Atlanta has won four straight games. Ender Inciarte has already topped his home run total of last year. Brandon Phillips is awesome.
