One Man’s Trash: A-Jax Attacks
It's nice to feel good about a call now and then. This week's most added player was Austin Jackson (+42%). He was one of the first players in this column to get the "treasure" label back in early June when he was one of the most dropped. Back then I said, "It looks a little bleak now, but I still think Jackson gets to double digit homers and 20 steals by the...

VIDEO: Joyce ejects Ausmus after instant replay… But what is the rule?
During last night’s Tigers 4-0 loss to the Angels, manager Brad Ausmus was ejected in the third inning by every Tigers fan favorite umpire Jim Joyce. The reason for Ausmus’ second career ejection as a manager was for continuing to argue a call that was apparently supported by instant replay and given a final rule upon.
The play in question was Matt Shoemaker’s pick-off of Eugenio...
