Grand Totals

I guess the DH makes a difference, no American League team in the top half of the pitching stats.

around the strike zone.

Anchorage Deals For A Veteran Bat

Earlier today the Anchorage Icemen traded for veteran infielder Michael Young.

Anchorage will send Denard Span and Shin Soo Choo to Los Angeles in exchange for the disgruntled infielder. Young was unhappy with his lack of playing time and Los Angeles' shabby ballpark conditions.

At the press conference Young had this to say,  "It is nice going to a contender and a ballpark with excellent turf conditions. The superintendent at that field should get a job at Augusta National."
