Boy, I hope all of you who drafted Justin Verlander were able to stay patient with him, but I bet better than 50% of you already have traded him off and got less than he is worth. Let the kicking yourself in the ass begin now! The Tigers ace was great again on Sunday as he was able to win his…

I know Troy Tulowitzki has been frustrating fantasy owners everywhere. They have got to be hoping that his homer on Sunday is the start of him getting his form back. Tulowitzki was 1-3 with this second home run of the season, which was his first since returning from the DL. You can’t expect him to repeat last season’s statistics, but this guy’s…

The Arizona Diamondbacks welcomed back Eric Byrnes to their lineup tonight after missing almost a month with tears in both hamstrings. Unfortunately for them, he picked up where he left off, and took an 0-5 tonight against the Red Sox and Josh Beckett.

Welcome to the Bigs!
The Mariners sent both of their top prospects to the field tonight as they promotoed both Wladimir Balentien and Jeff Clement. Balentien started in right field, had a homer and three RBI in his debut. Clement didn’t start but came in to replace Johjima and did have a single in his only plate appearance. Balentien strikes out a lot but has had 22-25 HRs in each…

Max Scherzer, Arizona Diamondbacks
Scherzer was called up to the big leagues today, although it is not certain in what capacity he will serve. He might get a start if Micah Owings’ injured ankle makes him unable to go, but nothing has been announced yet. If Scherzer has a spot in the Arizona rotation, grab him up.
