Tulowitzki Making Progress Doing Light Throwing - RealGM Wiretap
Troy Tulowitzki's broken rib is healing and he hopes to return in time to help his team make a run at a division title.
The Rockies are four games back in the National League West.
Tulowitzki has begun some light throwing and the injury feels more like a "bruise" after two weeks on the disabled list. He was injured diving for a ball against Washington on June 13 and is projected to miss four to six weeks.
"I've been able to play some light catch and trying to keep my conditioning up Michael Grabner Jersey ," he said. "I haven't been able to swing and do stuff like that. That would be the next step at some point and time, but no rush. When I'm ready, I'm ready. I don't know what that timetable will be."
Butler Royals Have Snowball Effect Going - RealGM Wiretap
The Kansas City Royals have won 10 straight postseason games, including seven this season during their first playoff appearance in 29 years.
The Royals have a 3-0 lead over the Baltimore Orioles in the ALCS. They swept the Los Angeles Angels in the ALDS and defeated the Oakland Athletics in the Wild Card Game.
"We've got a snowball effect going right now," Billy Butler said. "The confidence couldn't be any higher. That's when you come to the park each day, focus on the next pitch Antti Raanta Jersey , focus on your job and just not be the guy to end the streak."
Kansas City will send Jason Vargas to the mound for Game 4 on Wednesday, trying to advance to its first World Series since 1985.
"We've got to zone in on the task at hand," Greg Holland said. "They're not going to lay down. We understand that."
Phillies Hand Cole First Major League Loss - RealGM Wiretap
The Phillies defeated the Pirates 6-4 on Thursday, handing rookie Gerrit Cole his first Major League loss.
Cole, who allowed three runs and eight hits in 5 13 innings, had won his first four career starts for Pittsburgh.
"I thought he pitched well Ryan McDonagh Jersey ," manager Clint Hurdle said. "He's a 22-year-old young man. He's still learning, continuing to grow. He's fun to watch."
Cabrera Handicapped By Injuries - RealGM Wiretap
There has been a lot of talk about Miguel Cabrera and his health in the postseason, but the Detroit Tigers need him to be effective to advance to the World Series.
"He obviously has been playing this entire season -- or series, excuse me -- and quite a while now really in quite a bit of discomfort," Jim Leyland said. "It's a shame because it has handicapped him in some ways, obviously. You just don't feel good and you're hurting. It's tough.
"My hat goes off to him to what he's going though and going out there for us and he knows we need him in there and he's really risen to the occasion in every way possible Jimmy Vesey Jersey , in my opinion."
Cabrera, the reigning American League MVP, is hitting .263.317.421 with a pair of home runs and seven RBIs in the playoffs.
"It kind of breaks your heart, to be honest with you, to see him out there the way he has to out there and the way he is right now because you know he's hurting," Leyland added. "He's tough as nails Oscar Lindberg Jersey , I have so much respect for him. Everybody is conscientious these days about people earning their money. You talk about somebody who is earning their money, this guy feels like he owes it to the Detroit Tigers and our fans to be out there, he owes it to the team."
Bay Feels Hes Regained Stroke With Mariners - RealGM Wiretap
Jason Bay feels as though he has regained the hitting stroke that eluded him in recent years with the Mets.
He is attempting to make Seattle's roster after signing a one-year, $1 million deal this winter. Bay was released by the Mets with $22 million still owed on his previous contract after hitting .165 with eight home runs and 20 RBIs in 70 games in 2012.
Bay homered and walked twice in his spring debut on Saturday.
"I don't think I've shortened it. I've kind of re-found it," he said. "I struggled for a while and it was more of trying to find something. I tried a million things, just trying to save face Nick Holden Jersey , and nothing was working. I got so far away from doing what I'd done before that I forgot how to do it.
"So, the last part of last year and all offseason and the week I've been here, it's trying to get my rhythm back to what I've always done. So what may appear a little bit different from the last couple years is probably what it looked like three, four years ago. It's kind of engraining that again."
