Around the Horn - 6/17
There was limited action in MLB last night, but there's a full slate on tap tonight. Before the news a recap of last night's action.
A big night for Ryan Howard in the city of brotherly love. He smashed a pair of home runs and legged out a triple in the Phillies 8-2 dismantling of the Red Sox. Howard's 4 RBI came mainly at the expense of Bartolo Colon who left, after a 4 inning, 4-run appearance, with back spasms. Cole Hamels went 7 innings for his 7th win.
The Tigers 6-game winning streak came to a screeching halt when they couldn't hold a 4-3 lead late. Fernando Rodney's first appearance of the season is one he'd like to forget- a 3-run home run surrendered to John Bowker. The Giants won it 8-6.
Carlos Beltran gave Willie Randolph a going away present, 2 home runs to propel the Mets to a 9-6 win over the Angels. Perhaps if Beltran and his teammates had played with fire and desire all year Randolph might still be manager.
The Marlins continued the Mariners misery with a 6-1 win on the left coast. Andrew Miller, who started the season so badly, allowed 1 run over 7 innings to improve to 5-5.
In the lone intraleague game, Jair Jurrjens threw 7.2 shutout innings to beat the Rockies 7-1. Chipper Jones returned to the lineup with a pair of RBI and raised his average to .403.
News
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the Tigers are interested in free agent pitcher Freddy Garcia.
This just in...the Mets are still gutless.
The Indians have signed recently released Morgan Ensberg to a minor league deal.
The Denver Post reports that Troy Tulowitzki could return from the DL this Friday.
The White Sox placed Paul Konkero on the DL with a strained oblique.
The Red Sox are expected to activate Dice-K this weekend.
