Bradish struggles, Orioles fall to Blue Jays 6-4

After a feel-good win yesterday, the Orioles put up a clunker today. As is often the way, they were unable to score much until the late innings, and this time it was too little, too late.

According to  Adam Jude of the Seattle Times , the M's have no intention of dealing a starter, though Jude insists that when push comes to shove, as they approach the tr...

The Brewers selected left-hander Drew Rom ahead of Saturday’s matchup against the Rockies. Fellow lefty Brian Fitzpatrick was placed on the 15-day IL with an elbow injury.
