    Carlos Torres channels all Mets fans in that pic.

    Also, Tomasz...why would the Os send Gausman down off two great stars like he's had? Performance-wise, he deserves a rotation spot and I can't imagine all 5 other guys are better. Is it simply a Super-2 situation, trying to prevent him from reaching arbitration too early?

      I think they are giving him a chance to earn the spot. Gonzalez is available to pitch relief if needed right now, and is supposed to start Tuesday, sandwiched between Chen and Gausman. From what I've seen, and one of the games was in person, Gausman seems to have it now. I would stick Gonzalez into a relief role, because you know they aren't doing it with Jimenez at this point. Norris could be an option, but he's found confidence in his change and has put together a solid streak of starts like Gausman.

        So . . . he was put on the concussion list after?
        The king was shaken. He went up to the room over the gateway and wept.
        As he went, he said: "O my son Absalom! My son, my son Absalom!
        If only I had died instead of you
        O Absalom, my son, my son!"

          Carlos Martinez will start in place of Wainwright tomorrow for the Cardinals.

                          Was pulling for Gavin Floyd, tough break for him. Zumaya missed the rest of the season a few years ago with the same fracture.

                            Zach McAllister optioned to AAA Columbus. Recalled Vinne Pestano. Looking forward to see how he does.

                              You need to see these plays from Marlins/Mets

                              1. Ruben Tejada's glove and arm on a grounder in the 8th inning.

                              Then both of Ozuna's throws in the 8th and 9th to save and win the game for Miami.

                              What an arm.

                                After beating the A's and Blue Jays and going 3-0 in three starts with a .95 ERA, the Orioles are sending Gausman back to AAA because they don't want to put someone (i.e. Miguel Gonzalez) in a bullpen role.
