Major League Baseball News
Helton agrees to two-year extension
The Rockies announced Thursday that they have agreed to a two-year extension with Todd Helton that will keep the first baseman under contract with Colorado through 2013.
Price likely to make next start
Rays southpaw David Price felt fine Thursday, a day after being hit in his glove hand by a broken bat. The second-year pitcher is not expected to miss his next scheduled start Monday.
Dodgers get warm welcome in Taiwan
The Dodgers were greeted by hundreds of fans as they arrived at Taloyuan International Airport in Taiwan, and even more fans lined the streets in front of their team hotel in Taipei.
Reyes prescribed rest for elevated thyroid
Mets shortstop Jose Reyes will rest, refrain from athletic activity and make changes in his diet, according to the treatment prescribed by doctors and specialists, the Mets announced on Thursday.
Nathan exploring all options for recovery
While the Twins and Joe Nathan are hoping that rest and rehab will allow his injured right elbow to heal in the near future, the closer does have other treatment options, if needed.
Pujols, Holliday to miss more time
The Cards will be without the heart of their order for at least a few days, with Matt Holliday coming down with a right intercostal injury and Albert Pujols still dealing with a sore lower back.
Greinke works harder against Rox
Another day, another three shutout innings for Zack Greinke. Even so, Greinke's second start wasn't nearly an impressive as his 2010 Cactus League debut.
Hunter regrets 'wrong word choice'
Angels center fielder Torii Hunter reacted with dismay on Wednesday when he heard about a newspaper story focusing on race in baseball that contained a quote casting him in an unfavorable light.
Stanton making strong case for roster spot
Plans may be changing regarding Marlins' prize prospect Mike Stanton. Early in Spring Training, Stanton is building a case to make the big league leap sooner than many projected.
Lee gets off to solid start with Mariners
The Cliff Lee era for the Seattle Mariners began in earnest on Wednesday as the left-hander made his initial Cactus League start against the Rangers.
Beckett, Red Sox working on deal
SI.com reported Wednesday that the Red Sox and Josh Beckett have "growing optimism" that a new pact can be struck within the next few weeks.
Mets, Reyes agree condition not serious
After another Mets medical scenario had taken an odd twist, a morning conversation among the Mets' hierarchy, the club's primary physician and an agent representing Jose Reyes put the club and Reyes on the same page.
Nats GM not changing plans for Strasburg
Nationals general manager Mike Rizzo said Wednesday that he was impressed with Stephen Strasburg's performance in Tuesday's loss to the Tigers. However, the young phenom's performance didn't do anything to change Rizzo's plans for him.
Mattingly dons manager's hat for Dodgers
Hitting coach Don Mattingly looked comfortable on his first semi-official morning as Dodgers manager, and in a few years, he might seem even more at home if he becomes the successor to Joe Torre.
Rays pull Price after broken bat scare
Rays left-hander David Price exited Wednesday's 8-6 win over the Red Sox after being struck on his glove hand with a broken bat, but he appears to be fine, having suffered only an abrasion to his right palm that did not require stitches.
Sandoval opening eyes defensively
For almost each hit the Giants' Pablo Sandoval has stroked this spring, he has made an eye-opening play afield. Kung Fu Panda, Gold Glove winner? Why not?
Visiting Tigers, Granderson is welcome
Curtis Granderson walked by the home clubhouse at Joker Marchant Stadium and ran into plenty of old teammates. He also ran into at least one old friend he never had the chance to play with: Johnny Damon.
Results not getting to healthy Sheets
Ben Sheets' first two starts with the A's haven't exactly been cause for celebration, but the right-hander wants to stress that they also haven't been cause for concern.
Drabek looking forward to future with Jays
Kyle Drabek has been talking to his dad a lot these days. And why not? Drabek has a former Cy Young Award winner as a resource and the youngster has faced many new challenges since the Blue Jays acquired him from the Phillies over the winter.
Joba working to iron out wrinkles
The competition between Joba Chamberlain and Phil Hughes for the fifth spot in the Yankees' starting rotation could have taken a turn for the worse for Chamberlain after his performance in Wednesday's 9-8 win over the Tigers, but manager Joe Girardi clearly has a plan in place for the two pitchers.
Peavy risk? No sweat for White Sox
Right-hander Jake Peavy, acquired at last July's non-waiver Trade Deadline, is spending his first Spring Training with the White Sox, and he clearly looks like a formidable force with the South Siders.
Nomar calls it a career in Red Sox style
Nomar Garciaparra, a two-time batting champion and six-time All-Star, announced his retirement on Wednesday at a press conference held by his original team.
Cubs putting Bradley in the past
General manager Jim Hendry said Milton Bradley's implication that someone inside the Cubs organization sent him hate mail last year was "absolutely ridiculous" and the outfielder needs to "look in the mirror."
For Damon, a 'smooth transition'
While Curtis Granderson performed well against his former team on Wednesday, Johnny Damon was relegated to the sidelines because of an injury, though he had time to discuss his departure from the Yankees.
Zambrano lets Nady take his hacks
Carlos Zambrano gave up his at-bats Wednesday so Xavier Nady could hit. Zambrano, who doesn't like to miss a chance to swing the bat, volunteered them to Nady, who made his spring debut as the Cubs' designated hitter.
Lidge feeling better with each passing day
Brad Lidge stretched with his Phillies teammates on Wednesday. When he was done, he walked over to a nearby field to throw batting practice for the first time this spring.
Dodgers benefit from own lineup snafu
Don Mattingly's first day as Spring Training manager of the Dodgers ended in a 4-4 tie against the D-backs, but he'll probably remember it more for a baseball rarity after his team batted out of order as a result of its own lineup-card snafu.
Braves pleased by Glaus' fast start
Given that he played just 14 games last year, there was reason to believe Troy Glaus might struggle during the early weeks of Spring Training.
Rotation Leyland's toughest decision
Give this to Tigers manager Jim Leyland -- when it comes to picking a starting rotation, he at least has some options. So do all of the people trying to suggest to him what to do.
Lowe hoping new blister doesn't slow him
After tossing just one inning Wendesday, Derek Lowe hopes that the reappearance of a familiar blister doesn't further delay the preparations he needs before making his Opening Day start.
LaPorta finding formula for success
Matt LaPorta is not just one of the more promising young players on a developing Indians ballclub, he's a fountain of what Tribe players have begun to refer to as "LaPortaisms."
Greenberg: Rangers sale 'going smoothly'
Wearing red Rangers jackets, prospective owner Chuck Greenberg and Ray Davis, one of his key investors, visited camp Wednesday to see the club and reiterate their message that the transfer of the team from Hicks Sports Group to their ownership group is on track to be finalized by the beginning of next month.
Tribe patient while waiting on Branyan
Because of a herniated disc in his lower back, Russell Branyan has yet to appear in a Cactus League game with the Tribe.
