The Day in Review

So last night, I wrote my post early, which meant I failed to give props to CC Sabathia. He's been a heck of a pitcher after his terrible, terrible April.

Injury News

• Pedro will miss his start Tuesday to get more time off for his shoulder. 
• Ryan Zimmerman is coming off the DL. I had him stashed in one league, although I have A-Rod blocking his way. One or the other will be trade fodder soon. (PS He's not a bad option for those afraid of a weak 2nd half from Chipper Jones)
• Roy Oswalt is on the DL, but it's retroactive to July 12. 
• The Mariners say Erik Bedard won't take a mound until August. No word yet as to how this affects his status in a trade; maybe they just want to be careful he doesn't get hurt before they can sell him off.

Notable Performances

• Stat that makes me laugh: Grady Sizemore, 0-for-2 with 4 walks. That's a .000 average but a .667 OBP. Hmmm...
• Jonathon Sanchez, a name we debated previously, struck out 8 in 5 1/3 innings. Unfortunately, the bullpen did him no favors and he allowed 4 earned in that time.
• Quick Hits: Albert Pujols drove in four for St. Louis. Evan Longoria also drove in 4 for TB with a grand slam off Roy Halladay. Josh Beckett threw an 8-inning complete game against the Angels. Dan Haren struck out seven in seven shutout innings against LA's other team, the Dodgers. 

Finally, look for outfield rankings in the not-too-distant future (I promise!). That's what you need to know about the day.
