Update: The Yankees – Tigers game is postponed until tomorrow due to rain. The Giants – Cards game is delayed but is now scheduled to begin at 10:05PM Eastern, with the Cards at bat leading 3 – 1 in the bottom of the seventh, two out, men on second and third.
First up today: Giants v. Cardinals at Busch Stadium in St. Louis at 4:00PM Eastern on Fox. The Giants send out Matt Cain to do battle with Kyle Lohse. The series is tied at one game apiece.
Game two could be the end of the Yankees in the postseason. They’re down three games to none to the Tigers, and they’ll send out C.C. Sabathia to try to keep the Tigers and Max Scherzer at bay, hoping their hitters will start to, well, hit. The Yankees are hitting a collective .182 with five runs in three games. The game is at Comerica Park in Detroit at 8:00PM Eastern on TBS.
There’s no way A-Rod comes to the Blue, right? Please reassure me on this point.
Seems unlikely. He’s 37 years old and obviously slowing down, and I saw him paraphrased as saying the only team he’d accept a trade to is Miami.
He is a FA in 2018. We can pick him up then.
Blue Jays claim old friend Cory Wade off waivers from the Yankees.
Another victim of Torreism.

I’m not watching or listening to the game, why did Beltran leave?
The chat says something about a hamstring running out a grounder.
The radio guys told me he’d sprained a knee. They didn’t say how.
It’s the Curse of the Gnats – something about them injures other teams’ key players, or they wouldn’t be anywhere close to .500.
