First baseman José Abreu is not with the Astros right now and will be optioned tomorrow to West Palm Beach. As a veteran with over five years of major league service time, Abreu cannot be optioned without his consent but agreed to be sent down in an attempt to overcome his struggles.

Bailey Horn changes sox. From white to red. Cash considerations IIRC, was at AAA for the whites, prolly for the reds too.

Last night's Dodgers - Diamondbacks game was delayed 2 hours due to a swarm of bees that gathered on the netting. A beekeeper was summoned to safely remove them, which he did. And then he got to throw out the first pitch.

The Brewers got into another benches clearing brawl last night. This is at least twice this season so far. Brewers upset a guy admired a homerun. Hit him his next time up. Started a fight some time after that. Kind of pathetic Brewers Abner Uribe suspended for 6 games Freddy Peralta suspended for 5 games Pat Murphy suspended for 2 games Rays Jose Siri suspended for 3 games. Uribe and Peralta are appealing

Trout will have surgery for a torn meniscus in his left knee Such a shame since he is so talented. But this is who Mike Trout is. I am not at all surprised. This happens every year. Doesn't matter how good you are if you cant stay on the field.

Hmm, sounds like some roster manipulation hocus pocus right there to me. Maybe they should be dished some penalties to teach them a lesson and make an example of that sort of behavior.

I think, tho not sure, that a MLB suspension has to be served at the MLB level. So if he gets called back up still has to serve his days?

Not sure where to put it and don't want to create a thread, Arraez traded to SD. Good to see a team be proactive.
Tanner Scott to the Cubs would be ok in my book.

I really think he's been blackballed. Look at teams like the Royals , A's Tigers , etc , all doing fairly well early who could do even better with him and have no real media issues to deal with like the larger market teams would and he remains un signed. They could all use him to help try to stay in contention and when they do fade, he'd be a trade chip , probably the biggest one this season . He could probanly pitch 3 consecutive no hitters in the Mexican league and he'd still be there.

I think he has to serve a suspension in the minors for a different incident.
