Red Sox-Blue Jays series should provide some pop
The Cardinals visit the Cubs for the first time this week. Fireworks are not expected. But when the Red Sox's Clay Buchholz pitches against the Blue Jays next Saturday, that should be interesting. You know you are doing something right when rivals...

Without a turnaround, Dodgers could turn to someone other than Don Mattingly
The new Dodgers owners, it turns out, jazzed up every corner of Dodger Stadium but one. The concourses are brighter, the restrooms cleaner, the entertainment snappier. There's still one area, however, that feels wholly unfinished, an inherited...

Jeter's ankle could leave Yankees in shackles
For 17 seasons, Derek Jeter has been the best reason to keep believing in baseball. His throwback approach has yielded daily excellence in the middle of the Yankees infield. He has kept life simple off the field, and that never seems to be a bad idea....

Valentine right man to right Red Sox's ship
FORT MYERS, Fla. — As he starts his job as the Red Sox's manager, Bobby Valentine gets to be one part Tommy Lasorda, two parts James Carville and three parts the guy who walks behind the elephants in the circus parade.

Dodgers flaunt status as game's new spending king
While Hyun-jin Ryu is not yet a big name in North America, losing him was a bigger blow for the Cubs than you probably think. President Theo Epstein and general manager Jed Hoyer wanted the rights to the 25-year-old South Korean left-hander because they...

Dodgers don't have room for breakout star Puig
GLENDALE, Ariz. — Sure, there are qualifiers. There always are. Arizona is a great place to hit. He's on the hottest streak of his life.
