Chris Sale...The poor man's Jameson Taillon?

Granderson saving the Yanks day with another HR and two great catches in the field.

Cespedes and Carter with HRs again. Nice to see the A's and Pirates in the mix for things.

Cutch with another homer. Unfortunately I sold out on my stuff of his, but if he keeps it up, his AFLAC auto 9.5 could easily hit $1000.

Sheets is looking good. Strasburg and Verlander as well.

Dunn with homer 28. On pace for over 50.

Middlebrooks 3-3 2RBI

Mike Trout continuing his MVP campaign

Is he the best hitting pitcher in the game today? 1-1 BB RBI BA now at .385, crazy!

Verlander has a shutout going into the 8th. Seems like he hasn't been anywhere near as dominant as he was last season, but based on his numbers, he may very well win another Cy Young this year.

Bumgarner is the only one who can match him at the plate.
