Upon Further Review examines Brian Bannister’s extreme day/night split. He’s a Cy Young winner under the sun, a replacement player at night. A reverse vampire, if you will. They don’t offer an explanation, but suggest the Royals find a way to pitch him during the day as much as possible.

Nice bounce bacDDk by the Mets with Fernando Nieve throwing another gem. I would have liked to see him come out for the 7th inning last night but apparently he was suffering form a stomach aliment that had him tossing his cookie or soup in this instance.

Brian's ButtonYesterday, I discussed the extreme difference between Bannister as a day pitcher versus a night pitcher. Later this afternoon, he will pitch. That should bode well since he’s 15-4 during the day. Of course, after my recent post about how the Royals had only allowed 10 runs in 6 games, I clearly jinxed them. In the three games since, they have allowed 12, 12...

So what if he occasionally drops a pop-up.Big deal if he's more and more a DH every day.And who cares if sometimes he blasts the city he plays for.He giveth, but he taketh twice as much away. That's good enough for me. And let's get Matt Wieters in the deal too (get off the drugs, blogger.)And it's a shame too. Because while there's no good time to blow a save...

I came across this commentary from Phils Nation (good find by the guys at Amazin Avenue). You could replace the team and players names and you would think this was a column about the New York Mets. Things may not be well in Flushing, but, despite the championship banner, paranoia and fear of failure seem [...]

NEW YORK | With nearly 100 games to go in the season, the Washington Nationals' hope of anything but abject failure is already slim. That's not just a present reality, though. It's also a possible mandate for a trading strategy this summer. For a team that entered Wednesday challenging the 1962 New York Mets for the worst record in a 162-game season, the Nationals have...

NEW YORK - Johan Santana is back to his old self. But so is the lack of offensive support behind him. Six days after the Yankees knocked Santana around for nine runs in three-pus innings, a bounce-back performance by Santana...

There is a reason why Adam Dunn is shopped every off-season and every trading deadline.
It’s not his defensive struggles. It’s not his extreme strikeout numbers (holds the major league single-season record, 195).
