The Day in Review

Hey all. Brad got a head start on our day in review, but here are some of the non-Borowski highlights from today.

Injury Watch:

• Zach has got to be livid about this one: Alfonso Soriano is looking at a possible DL trip with a calf injury. Lou Pinella says his star left fielder will be out "a while." 
• Erik Bedard has also landed on the DL (that didn't take long at all). Because it was retroactive, he could pitch as soon as next Thursday, but Seattle is keeping quiet about the nature of the injury. 
• In bullpens outside Cleveland, Peter Moylan hit the Atlanta DL. No word yet on when he or Rafael Soriano will be back. Look for Manny Acosta to pick up the early save chances for the Braves.
• Timetables: Scott Kazmir is on track to return May 3 against Boston, while Pedro could be out until June. 

Notable Performances:

• Zack Greinke! with the complete game victory against Seattle. I was recently asked who would be the better acquisition, Greinke or Tom Glavine - needless to say, I advocated the youngster. 
• Matt Kemp continues to outplay Juan Pierre in LA. He scored three runs on Tuesday, which is two more than Pierre has scored all season.
• Jose Valverde blew another save for Houston. His job is still relatively safe because there's nobody behind him in that bullpen, but he's not looking like the major league leader in saves in 2008.
• Quality second basemen: Aaron Hill has 12 RBI in 14 games, Mark DeRosa hit a two-run homer, and Jose Lopez is hitting .308 on the year. 

Be constantly looking for ways to adjust your team - for example, now is the time to push to get Ichiro. And pitching, pitching, pitching is my favorite adage. I have Randy Johnson returning, I am trying to get JJ Putz and John Lackey at bargain prices, and still wouldn't mind picking up Sabathia. 

That's what you need to know about the day.
