AJ is never going to be like he was. The elbow is toast we made the right call there

Reds released OF Matt Kemp.
This is a bit of a shocker. Kemp was on the injured list with a broken rib. He hasn't hit well this year but was a well-above average hitter for the Dodgers last year. Kemp has a .200/.210/.283 triple-slash with one homer and five RBI in 62 plate appearances this year.

Tests on Steven Matz confirmed it is indeed a nerve issue that's been bothering him a couple starts, not his elbow. So that is a relief for the Mets. He is likely to miss a start or so to be cautious while he receives conservative treatment.

Chicago #Cubs reliever Carl Edwards, subjected to racial slurs and threats during his early season struggles, makes his return to Chicago after stint with AAA Iowa. Here’s hoping for a rousing ovation by the Wrigley faithful when he makes his 1st appearance

What was the name of the Diamondbacks pitcher who used to swing his head around real quick and stare into the catcher before he threw a pitch?

Mike Fetters. Currently our bullpen coach.

Gracie did an imitation of him when he pitched an inning in a blowout.

Thanks!

The Mike Fiers no-hitter got me thinking. ;)
