CLEVELAND -- The Tigers admitted today that the
signing of Jose Mesa didn't work out. They released
Mesa after their 9-2 win over Cleveland, to make way for Fernando Rodney to be activated from the disabled list on Tuesday in Texas. Mesa was supposed ...
The dream must be put on hold for
at least another year. The Phillies forgot to show
up in the post season.
Cleveland, April 15, 2008 -- Indians closer Joe
Borowski was placed on the disabled list with a
strained right triceps today, following a blown save against the Boston Red Sox. The Legend of Cecilio Guante has learned that a strained triceps muscle might be the least of Borowski's concerns, though. A leading Cleveland law enforcement official says that evidence has surfaced linking Borowski to....
Just in time for father's day. Are you
Sr. or Jr.?
MESA, Ariz. -- Oft-injured Kerry Wood is out
again -- this time because of a flub in
a hot tub. The Chicago Cubs pitcher is not expected to throw off the mound for a few days after he slipped this week getting out of a hot tub at home. Wood landed on...

Suck! Isn't it obvious that God hates Cleveland sports?
CHICAGO -- Mark Prior's right shoulder is apparently
giving him trouble again. The Cubs pitcher made his
debut at extended Spring Training on Thursday in Mesa, Ariz., and after throwing two innings, he experienced discomfort in his right shoulder and ...
CLEVELAND -- Considering the needs of most bullpens,
Jose Mesa has thrown his last pitch for the
Tigers, but possibly not his last pitch in the majors. "We'll see," Mesa said Sunday, soon after he was released following the Tigers' 9-2 victory over ...
The Detroit Tigers made a pretty bold move
this weekend. They released Jose Mesa , he of
the 12.34 ERA this season, which could mean the end of a career that's spanned four presidencies, eight teams and induced counless vomiting binges from coast ...
Other than the fact that he was 8-years-old
when he had his first child and 13 when
he had his second, we mean? >

He's out to make room for Rodney, who's
activated from the 15-day DL. The Tigers will pay
what's left of Mesa's $2.5 million contract. He said after the game that he'll see what takers are out there, but he'll have no regrets if this is the end of the ...
Mesa, who has been in the majors since
1987, was released by the Tigers on Sunday. Mesa,
who is 107-95 with 320 saves and a 4.33 ERA, was the Phillies' closer from 2001-03. Philadelphia was one of the teams most interested in Troy Pervical, who inked ...
I have a hunch that Jose Mesa's appearance
yesterday put him on the list of the top
five worst post-season pitchers ever.
If you can't tell, a year plus of
relying on Joe Borowski to close out games for
the beloved Tribe caught up with me this week. The only solace I've found is knowing that I'm not alone. If you're a baseball fan, you've been there. You never feel safe watching any game unless your squad has more than a 3 run lead. Your closer comes in and never gets ahead of hitters. He puts a lot of runners on...
We’re a bit late on this one, but
I didn’t want to write much about it over
the weekend. But if you were anywhere near a TV or computer over the last 48 hours, you’re likely aware that Omar Vizquel is now the all-time leader for games played at shortstop...
MVP worthy? Twenty-three major league relievers have placed
in the top five in MVP voting, including four
winners: Randy Myers, 1997 Orioles (4th) Jose Mesa, 1995 Indians (4th) Dennis Eckersley, 1992 A's (1st) Bobby Thigpen, 1990 White Sox (5th) ...
The Tigers shouldn't be too attached to closer
Todd Jones . Though he had 37 saves in
43 chances last year, strikeout rate is the best predictor of a pitcher's longevity, and Jones's 3.94 K's per nine signify that he may be headed for a decline. Of ...
KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- For now, the Tigers
are saying that Joel Zumaya is on the DL
with a right middle finger strain, but it doesn't look good at all. From all indications, his stay on the DL will be...

Well I guess we now know why the Tigers said Joel Zumaya had suffered a possible dislocation of the middle finger of his throwing hand on Sunday. It's because he ...
