On the DL for a month with hamstring issues.

I think this is that libel pussee thing I keep hearing about.

Cease and desist!

Those of you in fantasy leagues should look to pick up Matt Moore if he's available. He's starting a rehab assignment and should be back in 30 days.

Thanks. Will do

The Rays are pretty damn impressive. They lose Maddon, which was supposed to be a huge blow. Then they lose their top 3 pitchers(Cobb, Smyly, Moore). Somehow they are tied for 1st. Too bad they don't have any fans. They deserve better.

I lol'd when I got the alert on my phone. It's a terrible thing to do, but I just don't like him.

RODRIGUEZ VS. HISTORY: Rodriguez’s first two starts have been nothing short of dazzling. A quick primer:

■ According to Elias, he’s the first pitcher since 1900 with at least seven innings in which he allowed three or fewer hits and one or no runs in each of his first two big league games.

■ Rodriguez is the fourth big leaguer since 1914 to debut with two starts of seven or more innings with seven strikeouts and a yield of one or no runs, joining Orlando Hernandez (1998), Tom Phoebus (1966), and Karl Spooner (1954).

■ He’s the second pitcher since at least 1914 to reel off two straight outings with seven or more innings, seven or more strikeouts, and one or no runs to start his Red Sox career, joining Pedro Martinez, who had three straight starts of that ilk to commence his Sox career in 1998.

■ Opponents are hitting .102 (4-for-49) against Rodriguez in his two starts.
