MLB News & Notes
Greg Maddux ended a 4 games losing streak last night with a 7-3 win over the Reds. The victory was #324 lifetime, tying Maddux with Nolan Ryan and Don Sutton for 13th place all-time. Barring injury Maddux should finish the season in the #10 spot.
Entering today's action, Albert Pujols is averaging 1 home run for every 7 at-bats, or 14.3%. By comparison, Barry Bonds was at 15.34% when he hit 73 and Mark McGwire came in at 13.75% when he hit 70. Hopefully Pujols is doing without the cheating aids the other two have relied on.
Reigning NL Cy Young Winner Chris Carpenter was placed on the 15-day disabled list with bursitis under his right shoulder blade. The Cardinals right-hander was 4-2, 2.63.
David Wells's stay off the disabled list lasted only 4 1-3 innings. That's when he was struck by a line drive in the right knee by the Devil Rays' Travis Lee on May 26. Wells had off-season surgery on the knee and sprained it in a start in April.
The Houston Astros and Roger Clemens have agreed a 1-year minor league deal that will be worth a total of $22 million. Clemens is expected to make 3 minor league starts before recalled by the Astros.
