Mets place Michael Wacha on injured list with right shoulder inflammation
Photo by Al Bello/ The Mets’ already-thin rotation suffers another injury. The Mets have placed right-handed pitcher Michael Wacha on the injured list with inflammation in his right shoulder.

While his first start went well, Wacha struggled in his second and third starts, giving up a total of nine earned runs in nine innings of work. Signed by the Mets over the offseason, Wacha clearly had...

Here’s a better way to do the extra-inning runner on second base
Photo by Billie Weiss/Boston Red Sox/ This idea would make it an actual baseball play rather than “placed runner.” Last Sunday, the Cubs played an extra-inning game for the first time under the “placed runner” rule, where a “ghost runner” begins each extra inning at second base. There had been warnings that this would create the same thing in every extra inning: the runner sacrificed to third base, then (perhaps) score on a sacrifice fly. That hasn’t happened; in the Cubs/Pirates game last week there were walks, a stolen base, a play at the plate and the winning run scoring...

Game #13 Preview: Shoemaker vs Eovaldi
Bob DeChiara-USA TODAY Sports Blue Jays (5-7) vs Red Sox (5-9) The Blue Jays wrap up their series against the Red Sox this afternoon, looking for their first series win of 2020. Today’s game gets underway at 1:35 EDT. Blue Jays’ Starter Matt Shoemaker will make his third start of the year, obviously looking for something a lot closer to the success he had in his first start as opposed to the struggles he faced his last time out.

Realmuto homers as Arrieta shines; Phillies shutout Braves, 5-0
J.T. Realmuto may not want to vocalize his thoughts about his impending free agency, so instead, he's letting his play on the diamond speak loudly.

Cubs: What is the point of the 60 man player pool if it’s not being used?
Despite MLB’s initial 2020 season setup, including a 60 man player pool, the pool has yet to be used effectively.
