The Day in Review

Okay, readers, campus internet and I are finally agreeing and therefore I will be back to regular posts. I know you've missed me.

Injury News

• John Maine has hit the DL for the NY Mets. It sounds like he will need surgery at some point but the team is trying to put it off and possibly use him to shore up their bullpen for the remainder of the season. As far as major fantasy contributions, though, he's done.
• Alex Gordon has a torn quad and there's no reason to expect him back this year.
  

Notable Performances

• The ChiSox were making up a game from April and Ken Griffey Jr had the chance to pinch-hit; unfortunately, he did not hit a HR and render his 600th HR meaningless.
• Kosuke Fukudome drove in 4 for the Cubs - Zach, who attended the game, had to be thrilled.
• Mike Pelfrey threw his 2nd straight complete game and Carlos Delgado hit a pair of three-run homers to support him.
• Brett Myers: 7 scoreless, 8 strikeouts. Where was he all season?
• Milton Bradley had 3 RBI and Josh Hamilton upped his total to 116 as Texas defeated KC.

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