Simmons will be in a cast four at least four weeks and it looks like Pastornicky will be recalled, although the roster move probably won't be made until Thursday.
Just when it seems as though the Braves are turning things around (four straight wins), Andrelton Simmons suffers a pinkie injury. I just hope surgery won't be required as it looks like he's going to already be out for a month or so.
OFFICIAL: Andrew McCutchen to replace Giancarlo Stanton as an #NL representative in #HRDerby. — MLB (@MLB) July 7, 2012 Sucks that Giancarlo couldn't be in it, but overall it's good news for both the Pirates and MLB.
Jonny Venters has been placed on the 15-day DL with "left elbow impingement". Hopefully this is break he needs and can turn things back around. He's really sucked so far this year.
Looks like Inter Milan is set to release Diego Forlan. I really fell in love with Forlan after he rejuvenated himself in the 2010 World Cup. It really was a great story and even more entertaining to watch. Haven't heard anything in regards to where he intends on going though.

Damn, halfway through the season and the Mets are sitting 44-37, second in the NL East, and fresh off a 11-1 massacre of the Phillies. Not too shabby I must say.
ESPN SC MLB - Braves 3B Chipper Jones named to replace injured Dodgers CF Matt Kemp on NL All-Star team Guess I can keep voting for Michael Bourn, although it's not looking good as he is currently in last place.
Damn, really liking what Danny Ferry is doing so far. This move will save the Hawks an additional $7.5 million in 2013-14. Talk about a big day today for the Hawks.
