Will B.J. Upton lose playing time to the newly acquired Emilio Bonifacio? We'll also take a look at the deadline activity (or inactivity), starting rotations in PHI and MIA, the NYM OF and more.
Edinson Volquez is today's top rated starting pitcher in his home start versus the Marlins. Plus more on the starts of Lester, Happ, Ryu, and R.Hernandez.
In the trade for David Price the Tigers gave up Drew Smyly and Austin Jackson. Price slides into the rotation slot vacated by Smyly and Rajai Davis will get a chance to play center field every day. The speedy Ezequiel Carrera could seize an opportunity for significant playing time if Davis isn’t up to the task.
Buster Posey is having another productive season behind the plate, but his BA is on pace to be his lowest since 2011. Cause for concern? Plus Jorge de la Rosa, Jay Bruce, Jenrry Mejia, and Luis Valbuena.
Billy Burns returned to the minors when OAK picked up Sam Fuld. But the September 2013 Billy Hamilton show suggests that Burns can help this September, if not earlier.
