Even when youre a fan of one specific major league baseball team, it can be difficult to keep track of all of the news that surrounds your favorite club on a daily basis. Nike Free Pas Cher .However, when youre a fantasy baseball owner and you now have to multiply that effort by 30 in order to be as up to date as possible with each and every club? Its a fools errand that borders on the impossible.Fear not! Well be here each and every week to give you a snapshot of whats going on in the world of baseball, with one fantasy takeaway from each of the leagues 30 teams. Think of it as your one-stop shop for the week ahead. Here are the takeaways for this week, as the second half of the season gets underway:Arizona Diamondbacks: Zack Greinke is not quite ready to return to the Arizona rotation, and will likely miss the first week-plus of the second half of the season. Greinke is currently on the disabled list with a strained left oblique and has yet to throw off a mound, a key step before activation. With extra days off on the slate, the Diamondbacks can go with a four-man rotation for a bit before Greinkes spot has to be called upon.Atlanta Braves: Catcher Tyler Flowers has a fractured hand, the result of being hit by a pitch on July 1. Although he tried to play through the pain, he will likely miss 4-6 weeks as a result of the injury. Anthony Recker has been called up from the minors, but the bulk of the catching duties will likely fall to veteran A.J. Pierzynski. The staffs ERA this season has actually been better with Pierzynski behind the plate, 4.04 compared to 4.57 with Flowers framing the pitches.Baltimore Orioles: Hyun Soo Kim strained his right hamstring on Sunday, and a trip to the disabled list has not yet been officially ruled out by the Orioles. Theyre planning to run the outfielder through some drills today, and if theres any lingering concerns, then its possible that he may have to miss some time. Over his past 13 games, Kim is batting .333 with a 1.00 BB/K rate and seven RBI.Boston Red Sox:?Craig Kimbrel had arthroscopic surgery on Monday to repair his left knee woes and will be out for around 3-6 weeks as a result of the successful procedure. However, with a rehab assignment on the horizon before hell be given a green light to reclaim his closers job, Koji Uehara will likely have to be the ninth-inning answer for Boston into September.Chicago Cubs: Dexter Fowler (hamstring) started a rehab assignment last Friday, but then called it off when he realized he was not going to be ready in time to play in the All-Star Game. Hes getting checked out by the team today, and if he cant immediately get back on the field, hell head back to the minors for a second shot at rehab games. Odds are good, though, that Fowler will be back with the Cubs by Monday at the latest.Chicago White Sox: Justin Morneau had just two hits in his first six rehab games at Charlotte, as he attempts to get ready to make his 2016 debut after signing with Chicago in early June. Morneau then moved to Double-A Birmingham due to Triple-As All-Star break and went 2-for-6 in a pair of games. Expect Morneau to join the White Sox very soon, taking over DH duties from the struggling Avisail Garcia (.130 batting average since June 19).Cincinnati Reds: Trade rumors continue to surround Jay Bruce, who said over the break that the Reds would be doing themselves a disservice if they didnt try to better the organization by trading me and getting prospects. One team that has expressed interest is San Francisco, who has also been linked to Andrew Miller of the Yankees. Cleveland, Kansas City and Toronto are also believed to be in the chase for Bruce, and its beginning to look increasingly unlikely that hell still be in Cincinnati come August.Cleveland Indians: Michael Brantleys long road back to Cleveland is scheduled to move to Akron this weekend. Neither the outfielder, nor the Indians are willing to say when Brantley (torn labrum) will finally be ready to get back into major league action, but with rehab assignments limited to 20 days, common wisdom would indicate that about two more weeks would seem to be a reasonable timetable, if he is to return at all in 2016.Colorado Rockies: Sure, when talking about the Rockies rotation, its always relative, but still, manager Walt Weiss believes his current rotation is the best hes had in Colorado. And the stats do bear this out, with starting pitcher ERA showing improvement each month of the season thus far, from 5.60 in April to 3.98 to date in July. Jorge De la Rosa kicks off a second half on Friday that will see the team play 10 of its next 17 away from Coors Field.Detroit Tigers: The general feeling coming out of Detroit is that the team will not make any deals of significance this season, even as it remains intent on pursuing a playoff spot. The likes of Ian Kinsler, J.D. Martinez and Francisco Rodriguez all have contract situations that might bring enough return in the form of prospects to merit considering a deal, but for a team that tends to use the same lineup day in and day out, they can ill afford to lose any of them and still contend in 2016. Theyre basically stuck.Houston Astros: Despite all the buzz surrounding Alex Bregman, who went 3-for-5, falling only a home run shy of the cycle at Sundays Futures Game in San Diego, he will start the second half of the season in Triple-A. Manager A.J. Hinch said that while the youngster, most likely targeted for third base when he does eventually join the Astros, could indeed help the team down the stretch, he will not be in Seattle this weekend.Kansas City Royals: While the team may not be back at full strength immediately out of the gate this weekend, the Royals do expect to have both Lorenzo Cain (hamstring) and Wade Davis (forearm) back in active service within a week. Cain is eligible to be activated today, but will need some rehab games before jumping back into the Kansas City lineup.Los Angeles Angels: After getting hit on the hand by a pitch, C.J. Cron will miss 6-8 weeks as he recovers from corrective surgery to repair the damage. While Albert Pujols could see a little more time at first base while Cron is out, the Angels did recall Ji-Man Choi from Triple-A Salt Lake to assist at the position. Choi had been hitting .327 at Triple-A, with 27 RBIs in 45 games. Jefry Marte will also see some time at first base.Los Angeles Dodgers: Clayton Kershaw is eligible to return from the disabled list, but will need a little more time to deal with his herniated disc before retaking the mound. While nobody is willing to give a definite timetable, manager Dave Roberts said that his ace would not need a rehab assignment before rejoining the rotation. However, he didnt know yet if the pitcher would be traveling with the Dodgers on their upcoming nine-game road trip.Miami Marlins: Is Giancarlo Stanton due for a bit of a power slump after his stellar performance in the All-Star Home Run Derby? Its always essential for fantasy players to avoid putting too much weight into small sample sizes, but for the record, Todd Frazier his just two home runs in the 23 games after winning the Derby last season. The prior two years, Yoenis Cespedes followed up his back-to-back titles with just three in 18 games, both times. And in 2012, Prince Fielder his just three homers in the first three weeks of the second half. Food for thought.Milwaukee Brewers: Jonathan Lucroy has been the subject of trade rumors before, and will continue to be surrounded by buzz through the deadline or until Milwaukee actually makes a deal. Texas is believed to be interested in the catcher, and as Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports reports, the Brewers had multiple scouts at a Rangers Rookie League game this week, further adding fuel to the fire that the teams may be cooking up some sort of swap.Minnesota Twins: Im not sure this really qualifies as if it aint broke, dont fix it, but manager Paul Molitor seems to be satisfied with the recent run of success from his rotation headed into the break. Minnesotas starters have a season-best 3.05 ERA and a .222 BAA in July, so hell keep the rotation on track, with Ervin Santana kicking things off Friday, followed by Tyler Duffey, Kyle Gibson, Ricky Nolasco and Tommy Milone, in that order.New York Mets: Noah Syndergaard did not pitch in the All-Star Game, as manager Terry Collins chose to let his right-hander continue to rest his fatigued arm. As of now, the Mets fully expect Syndergaard to be back on the mound against the Cubs on July 19, next Tuesday. However, if he ends up getting pulled early in that game, it would be hard to imagine him avoiding a trip to the disabled list.New York Yankees: World Series home-field advantage to the winner notwithstanding, the results of the All-Star Game really dont mean anything to most of the participants. However, for Carlos Beltran, his ability to get through two innings in right field meant a lot. Beltran, who has been limited to DH duties due to hamstring issues, has declared himself fit to return to the outfield for the Yankees. That opens up the door for Alex Rodriguez to DH more often, as opposed to the platoon situation into which Beltrans injury had forced the veteran.Oakland Athletics: When contract negotiations stalled this spring between the As and Josh Reddick, the two sides were really not all that far apart. However, with the trade deadline looming, and with that gap still not having been addressed, the chances of Reddick being sent packing are strong. Kansas City, San Francisco, the Cubs and Dodgers are all said to be interested in Reddick, but Toronto might also enter the mix. Reddick has hit eight home runs in just 18 career games at the Rogers Centre.Philadelphia Phillies: Could the Phillies have an outfield of Nick Williams, Aaron Altherr and Odubel Herrera by August? Its a possibility. Altherr (wrist) is ready to start a rehab assignment this week, while Williams has hit .283 with 41 RBI at Triple-A. In any event, their presence in the organization has led to speculation that both Cody Asche and Peter Bourjos could be headed out of town via trade before July is over.Pittsburgh Pirates: Gerrit Cole (strained right triceps) got through a pair of rehab starts with flying colors, including a six-strikeout, five-inning, two-hit performance in his last outing at Triple-A. He will rejoin the Pittsburgh rotation on Saturday against the Nationals, slotting in between Francisco Liriano and Chad Kuhl.St. Louis Cardinals: Trevor Rosenthal had positive MRI results, with no tear found in his sore hamstring. That good news means the pitcher should be available out of the bullpen on Friday, and while hes not going to be handed back his closers job just yet, the time off could certainly do wonders towards getting the struggling reliever back on track.San Diego Padres: Drew Pomeranz took the mound at the All-Star Game representing the hometown Padres, but hes not likely to remain with the club much longer. Reports have as much as a third of the league inquiring as to the pitchers availability. The Rangers are one of those teams and San Diego is believed to want to nab Jurickson Profar in any return package from Texas. With so many clubs in the mix on Pomeranz, the price tag is bound to be quite high.San Francisco Giants: Hunter Pence (hamstring surgery) is closing in on a return to the Giants. Manager Bruce Bochy is targeting July 25 as the potential date for getting the veteran outfielder back in his lineup. He may have Joe Panik (concussion) back sooner than that, but the second basemans return depends almost entirely on whether hell get medical clearance from the league.Seattle Mariners: Although he struggled a bit with his mechanics due to rust, Felix Hernandez (calf) got through a rehab assignment on Sunday without any physical setbacks. The King will now pitch for Triple-A Tacoma on Friday, and if all goes well, he is scheduled to rejoin the Mariners at home on Wednesday, July 20 against the White Sox. Mike Montgomery will remain in the rotation until Hernandez returns.Tampa Bay Rays: Neither Hank Conger (.194) nor Curt Casali (.169) have done much at the plate this season, but Casali has been better at throwing out would-be base stealers, so perhaps thats why hes the one who will stick around Tampa Bay for the second half. Conger has been demoted to Triple-A. Either Luke Maile or J.P. Arencibia will get the call to back up Casali before Fridays action.Texas Rangers: Yu Darvish (shoulder) will be back on Saturday, starting for the Rangers against the Chicago Cubs. He threw a successful bullpen session on Wednesday, setting him up to be activated from the disabled list in order to rejoin the team in time for this weekends action. In his last rehab start, Darvish got his pitch count up to 72, so he may be able to work as many as five or six innings his first time out.Toronto Blue Jays: Chris Colabello can return from his 80-game suspension on July 23, and as per league rules, he can participate in minor league games once he gets within 10 days of that date. So, playing for Class-A Dunedin, Colabello went 1-for-3 with a double on Wednesday, as he hopes to do enough over the next week or so for Toronto to welcome him back. However, as he does have options available, the Blue Jays could decide to send him to Triple-A instead.Washington Nationals: Lucas Giolito, who turns 22 today, pitched twice with the Nationals before getting sent back down to the minors on July 8. On Tuesday, he threw with Class-A Hagerstown in order to stay on schedule and allowed two home runs over seven innings, while striking out four. While the performance itself wasnt all that impressive, just the fact he pitched when he did may indicate that the Nationals expect to bring him back to Washington sooner, rather than later.

Robredo, ranked No. 16, bounced back from an upset loss to Leonardo Mayer in the second round of the Royal Guard Open in Chile last week to down Carreno Busta in 1 hour, 25 minutes. On a day filled mostly with qualifying matches, fifth-seeded Marcel Granollers of Spain also entered the second with a 7-5, 3-6, 6-2 win over Aljaz Bedene of Slovenia, while Guido Pella of Argentina defeated Guillermo Garcia-Lopez of Spain 7-6 (6), 6-4 to advance.

CHICAGO -- An Illinois high school football team that lost a playoff football game because officials made an incorrect call wont be in the state championship contest after a judge on Wednesday rejected its bid to overturn the outcome.Judge Kathleen Kennedy rejected an unusual lawsuit from Chicago suburban Fenwick High School seeking to reverse the Plainfield North High School victory Saturday. Fenwick said it would not appeal the decision.That sends Plainfield North High School to the Class A state title game Saturday against East St. Louis, but none of the parties involved was celebrating.Fenwick led the playoff game 10-7 and had the ball on fourth down on its own 15-yard line with four seconds left. The Fenwick quarterback heaved the ball downfield and used up the time left on the clock. Officials ruled the play to be intentional grounding, a penalty that gave Plainfield North the ball and one more play, which it used to kick a field goal and tie the game before winning 18-17 in overtime.The Illinois High School Association, which governs prep sports in the state, said the call was a mistake. The association apologized to Fenwick, but said there was no way for the school to appeal the outcome through the organization.In her ruling Wednesday, Kennedy cited an association bylaw that says officials decisions are final.The association argued that if Fenwick prevailed it could lead to a flood of lawsuits over incorrect decisions by officials.I wish there was a way that Fenwick could participate in the game, but theres not. Sometimes the law is not fair, David Bressler, an association attorney, argued in court. Nike Free Destockage. Fenwick principal Peter Groom said in a statement: We applaud the Plainfield North athletes and coaches for a well-played semi-final game, and we thank them for their continued sportsmanship and understanding.Plainfield North spokesman Tom Hernandez praised the decision but, in a printed statement, stressed: We reiterate our empathy for our friends from Fenwick High School and their supporters.Illinois association spokesman Matt Troha said he is not aware of a previous case in which a school in Illinois tried to use the courts to change the outcome of a high school sports event.In 2014, an Oklahoma judge declined a high schools request to have a football playoff game replayed after a referees mistake cost the schools team a touchdown. The judge expressed concern about a slippery slope that could lead to future litigation over wins and losses.The association said Wednesday that it will look for ways to try to prevent such problems in future, but it isnt yet clear what that will involve.There is no celebration and there are no winners in this circumstance. It is simply a resolution, the association said in an emailed statement. The Fenwick High School community has been dealt a pair of devastating blows over the past few days, while Plainfield North had a historic moment shrouded in controversy.

James Tomlinson, the Hampshire left-arm seamer, has announced his retirement after a 14-year career, saying he feels like the old dog at the back of pack and now is the time to head back to the den. Nike Free Destockage .Tomlinson, 34, played 129 first-class matches taking 382 wickets at 31.92 with a career-best 8 for 46 against Somerset, at Taunton, in 2008. Known for his humorous personality, Tomlinson confirmed his retirement with a colourful statement.I remember years ago watching a nature documentary that followed a pack of wild dogs on a hunt. At the front of the pack there were the young and keen dogs who couldnt wait to get stuck in, then in the middle were the experienced, healthy dogs who knew what they were doing and held the pack together.But I will never forget the image of one old dog at the back of the pack trying to keep up. He had half a leg missing and an ear hanging off from what must have been years of previous battles. When he finally arrived at the scene all that was left were scraps... Although I was once both the young dog at the front and the healthy dog in the middle I feel now is the right time to head back to the den. I now have the opportunity to do just that and look after all the young dogs coming through. A job I already love and cherish.He went on to thank his brothers, Hugh and Ralph, as well as former Pakistan great Wasim Akram who had a spell with Hampshire in 2003 which was early in Tomlinsons career. He also praised Hampshires slip cordon and the Dukes ball used in county cricket, before signing off in light-hearted style.However I would most like to thank the opposition batters who somehow for over a decade missed the straight ones and nicked the half volleys... to you all I will be forever grateful!

The outcome pushed the Tigers to 11-10 overall and 5-3 in Southeastern Conference play.Mississippi State is an aggressive team that plays great defense so we knew this was a match where we had to stay mentally tough, head coach Rick Nold said. It was a big win and were really happy about the outcome.The Tiger defense put together a solid performance against the Bulldogs, finishing with a season-best 14 team blocks and forcing 39 MSU attack errors. Middle blockers Breanna Barksdale and Macy Reece totaled seven blocks a piece, while freshmen Enija Bidzane and Gwyn Jones added five and four, respectively. Reece & Bidzane each notched a career high in the category, while Barksdale tied a season best.Weve put some good time into our blocking over the last couple of weeks, Nold said. Were not a big blocking team based on our size. But we knew that if were disciplined and take spots away, we would be very successful.The Auburn backrow also has a solid day with 58 digs. Junior libero Jesse Earl picked up her 11th 20-dig performance, having a match-high 24 digs. Classmate Kelly Stewart added eight, while Bidzane finished with seven.Junior setter Alexa Filley did a great job spreading out the Auburn offense and keeping the MSU defense guessing.

A Bidzane ace and another MSU error tied the set at 16 before the Bulldogs pushed to a 23-19 lead. An Auburn error gave MSU set point and the Bulldogs tied the match at one set each, 25-23.MSU used aggressive serving to jump ahead at 4-2 in the third.

Team of season so far Petr CechArsene Wengers decision to omit his summer signing in the Champions League looks all the most confusing given the four clean sheets racked up in the league.

Friday gives us a balanced slate, tempered a bit with an afternoon affair in Wrigley Field making the attractive matchup between Jake Arrieta and Adam Wainwright mostly just for viewing pleasure as its off the board in the main DFS contests. Cheap Yeezy Shoes Online . Chances to qualify for the big DFS tournaments and live events are waning while its crunch time in head-to-head leagues as clubs battle to make the playoff or improve seeding. Theres something for everyone in Fridays Daily Notes.PitchingEliteStephen Strasburg is in a great spot to add to his potential Cy Young resume as the Atlanta Braves visit Nationals Park. The right-hander will no doubt rank up goodly whiffs because thats what he does, just keep in mind the Braves may tote a weak offense but they dont fan excessively. This renders the Washington Nationals co-ace much better for DFS cash play than tournament action.As mentioned in the introduction, the Chicago Cubs host the St. Louis Cardinals in the standard Friday matinee. Its worth noting the Redbirds are uncharacteristically striking out at an elevated pace versus fright-handers the past month.Chris Archer has rewarded his patient seasonal owners as hes picked up the pace significantly the past month or so. The final numbers will still be disappointing, but if you cut bait on Archer, you missed out on a second half stretch of seven starts, spanning 45 1/3 innings with a respectable 3.18 ERA and sparkling 1.01 WHIP plus 51 punch puts to boot. Archer will be on the hill for Alex Rodriguezs last game in pinstripes as the Tampa Bay Rays head to the Bronx for a weekend set. Despite some veteran lefty swingers with a solid track record, the New York Yankees have not fared well versus righties while Archers offense has smacked southpaws around. With CC Sabathia on the hill for the home team, Archer is in great shape for a solid game with decent run support, making him a GPP option even on the road in a hitters park.David Price continues to be one of the more frustrating pitchers to analyze, let alone own in all of fantasy baseball. His whiff and walk rates are nearly identical to last season where he boasted a 2.45 ERA, albeit artificially low as suggested by a 2.78 FIP and 3.24 xFIP. This season, in part buoyed by a bloated 0.333 batting average on balls in play (BABIP) in tandem with a 14 percent home run per fly ball rate (HR/FB), the Boston Red Sox southpaw checks in with a 4.34 ERA, a bit higher than his 3.41 FIP and 3.28 xFIP. Its interesting to note via xFIP, Price is essentially the same guy as last season. Keep in mind the key to xFIP is normalizing HR/FB, ostensibly tying home run rate to luck. This is where improvements in data collection and analysis will help flesh out the bad luck from bad pitching. Its safe to say Price has been a victim of both. Next up is an interleague tilt as the Arizona Diamondbacks slither into Fenway Park for a weekend visit. The Snakes pound lefties and get to use an extra hitter, but they also fan at an elevated clip versus lefties. Price makes for an intriguing GPP option, with one of the higher ceilings on the Friday card.SolidWhen a Colorado Rockies hurler draws a soft road matchup, the narrative usually involves mentioning their home and away splits. A slightly higher Coors Field ERA side, from a skills-basis, Jon Gray has been just as good, if not better a mile high than when traveling. The 24-year old right-hander will take the hill in Citizens Bank Park to challenge a middling Philadelphia Phillies squad that offers strikeout upside on top of his already impressive 9.4 K/9. Gray is one of the better DFS options in all formats.With the note this start point conveniently begins right after a six-run outing to begin July, Sean Manaea gas spun off six starts featuring a 2.58 ERA and 1.07 WHIP in 38 1/3 innings with 34 punch outs. Unfortunately for his seasonal league owners, the Oakland Athletics have not blessed the southpaw with any run support so hes gone winless during this stretch. With the Seattle Mariners sending Ariel Miranda to the O. Co Coliseum hill, Manaea has a decent chance of securing his first victory since June 29.Itll be the classic matchup of strength versus strength as the Texas Rangers host the Detroit Tigers with Yu Darvish taking the ball for the home team. Since returning from the disabled list on July 16, the righty has fanned an impressive 43 in just 29 1/3 frames. Theres some risk but if youre looking to take down a DFS tournament, Darvish could easily register the top points total on the card.Theres only seven hurlers that fall in the solid range with the others not as intriguing for DFS play. As such, well move onto the heavily-populated streaming section where some additional DFS options will be identified. If you want some additional analysis on a pitcher that was left out, or anything pertaining to Fridays schedule, please let me know in the comments or through Twitter to @ToddZola.Streamers There are 18 hurlers, most of which are well below the threshold of 50 percent ownership of ESPN leagues. If youre looking to make up some ground, Fridays a great slate to get a head start before needing to scramble over the weekend.Despite not possessing all that much mustard on his heater, Joe Musgrove has maintained a high strikeout rate. This will be put to the test as the Houston Astros head north of the border to take on the Toronto Blue Jays. The hosts will be without the disabled Jose Bautista but are still dangerous. If youre in a tight ratio battle, its best to look elsewhere but if you need some punch outs, Musgrove is in play for a spot start as well as DFS play.As is often the case when returning from Tommy John surgery, Homer Baileys control and command is rusty. The Cincinnati Reds rightys debut against the San Diego Padres went much better than his follow-up against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Bailey draws another weak opponent in the Milwaukee Brewers for his third straight road effort. This is another instance where a buffer in ratios would aid your effort to chase whiffs as the home team fans at a generous 26 percent clip versus righties.Ross Stripling is taking the spot originally intended for Rich Hills debut in blue but the newly acquired Los Angeles Dodgers lefty remains on the shelf with blister issues. Stripling has held the fort when called upon and will face a Pittsburgh Pirates club thats been in a rut, sporting the second worst wOBA versus righties for the past month.A Coors Field affair interrupted a string of solid efforts by Andrew Casher. The July acquisition for the Miami Marlins Is set up to regain some momentum as the offensively challenged Chicago White Sox head to South Beach for an interleague tilt.Logan Verrett has been hit hard, but with a date in Citi Field against the San Diego Padres in tow, the New York Mets right-handers is in play.On paper, Kyle Gibsons pitch-to-contact style plays right into the Kansas City Royals offense but the defending World Series champs are a different unit, one that the Minnesota Twins righty can frustrate. Gibson still wont rack up many whiffs but he should keep run scoring in check and be in play for a win.Well continue a recurring theme as Francisco Liriano will face a Houston Astros club prone to the strikeout, but also capable of sending the Toronto Blue Jays new lefty to an early shower. Lirianos strikeout potential puts him in play for DFS deployment.Well send with Ivan Nova, whose projected Game Score is still being penalized from his time in the Bronx. Nova will almost always be in play at home; Friday hes in play as the Los Angeles Dodger welcome the Bucs to southern California for a weekend set.AvoidAs tempting as it is to add Matt Cain to the avoid list for his encounter with the Baltimore Orioles, the game is on AT&T Park and the San Francisco Giants veteran right-hander has shown ample flashes of mediocrity to still be in play. That leaves Patrick Corbin and his automatic avoid Game Score of 45 as the sole arm too risky to use regardless of the scenario. And even that could change depending on the health of his opponents lead off and clean-up hitter as the Diamondbacks visit Beantown where Mookie Betts and David Ortiz are battling injuries.HittingThe Boston Red Sox and their scuffling but dangerous lineup are in a good spot even if Betts is unable to return as hes nursing a sore calf. Big Papi fouled a ball off his shin Wednesday night and had to be helped off the field but was in the lineup last night. With a southpaw on the hill, he may get the night off so monitor lineups. Dustin Pedroia has assumed the leadoff spot and is likely to stay there even if Betts is back. Xander Bogaerts, Hanley Ramirez and Aaron Hill also enjoy the platoon edge over Patrick Corbin.The Miami Marlins righties are lined up for a big game with Chicago White Sox southpaw Carlos Rodon taking the hill in Marlins Park. Giancarlo Stanton (if active) leads the way with Marcel Ozuna, Martin Prado and Chris Johnson also in play. Stanton missed Wednesdays game with a sore hip but is expected to play after Thursdays off-day.Mike Foltynewicz has big issues with lefty swingers. However, the Washington Nationals top left-hander, Bryce Harper, has missed three straight games so he Atlanta Braves righty ay catch a break. If Harper is back, hes obviously in play, joining Daniel Murphy, Ben Revere and switch hitter Danny Espinosa.The Texas Rangers will square off with Anibal Sanchez. The Detroit Tigers veteran righty has pitched better since returning to the rotation but in Globe Life Park, hes a risk. Platoon splits arent as actionable with Sanchez but the Rangers like to play matchups so their lefties Rougned Odor, Nomar Mazara, Shin-Soo Choo and Mitch Moreland are the prime beneficiaries along with switch hitter Carlos Beltran.Without Jay Bruce, the Cincinnati Reds left-handed brethren lost a chief cog when facing a vulnerable like Jimmy Nelson. However, joey Votto and Scott Schebler remain to take advantage along with Billy Hamilton. The speedster is in an especially great spot since the Milwaukee Brewers starter has been on the bump for 18 successful stolen base tries and is likely to surpass last seasons total of 24.Most likely to hit a home run: Giancarlo Stanton/Marcell OzunaThe culprit will be Rodon. If Stanton is playing, hes the call but if not, his teammate Ozuna will be betrothed with the task.Most likely to steal a base: Billy HamiltonThe question isnt if, but how many bags Hamilton swipes with Nelson on the hill. Ill say three. Cheap Yeezy Shoes Wholesale . Durant finished with 24 points and 13 rebounds, Jackson matched his career high with 23 points on 10-of-14 shooting and Lamb scored 12 points on 5-of-7 shooting, lifting the Thunder to a 94-88 win over San Antonio and snapping the Spurs 11-game winning streak.

As part of a series looking at the mind, body and soul of an athlete, ESPNs Prim Siripipat will speak to various tennis players throughout Wimbledon.LONDON -- It took only 63 minutes for No. 3 seed and former Wimbledon finalist Agnieszka Radwanska to outduel her first-round opponent, Ukrainian Kateryna Kozlova, 6-2, 6-1 on Wednesday. Although rain caused more than a dozen womens matches to be suspended on the outer courts, play on Wimbledons biggest stage continued thanks to a retractable roof that was installed in 2009.In front of 15,000 fans in a packed Centre Court, Kozlova looked tense in her Wimbledon debut. Radwanska, on the other hand, remained calm and focused as she moved Kozlova to all corners of the court with her usual variety of shots. The 27-year-old Polish star was prepared, despite the rain that pushed their match back a day.You know, I was mentally ready to go, Radwanska said after the match. Then, you know, rain. So its always tough, but its the same for both of us.However, when it comes to the later rounds of a Grand Slam, Radwanskas mental game is still questionable -- or, at least a work in progress. In 2012, she reached her first career Grand Slam finals but failed to walk away with her first Wimbledon title, losing to Serena Williams in three sets. Her success that year propelled her to No. 2 in the world, but since then, she has yet to win a major or reach another major final.Radwanska spoke with espnW.com about her approach to her mental game and how she handles the unrelenting pressure that comes with being a top star.espnW: Aga, this is your 11th Wimbledon appearance. Youve reached the finals here before. Do you get nervous at all for your first-round matches?Radwanska: First match is always tricky, but as you say, its so many years here so Im not really that nervous. I think when you play tournaments, its more emotion and adrenaline, so now Im pretty calm.espnW: Youve been on the tour for 10-plus years now. Is there a moment where you ever get nervous?Radwanska: Well, I remember those matches in the beginning that I was really, really nervous. I just couldnt even eat, because I was that nervous. I think experience makes a huge difference so now, its just a usual day and you just go on the court and play.espnW: Experience definitely helps. It also provides thatt confidence and belief in yourself, but do you have any regimen such as visualization or meditation to help keep you calm?Radwanska: Not really. Yeezy Shoes China Wholesale. . Im not really that kind of person to meditate. For me, its just really good to have a good warm-up and just go on court and figure out after a few games what you have to do to win matches. Trying to really stay calm and not really think about what I did wrong. [I just] think, next point.espnW: Youve reached the finals here at Wimbledon, but you have yet to win a major. Do you believe in yourself that you can walk away with a Grand Slam sometime soon?Radwanska: Well, I was close a couple times and even a couple times here [at Wimbledon]. I hope so. Of course, I believe that. I was there and I was playing the last match of the Grand Slam, so why not? I still have a couple more years to try and hopefully it will happen one day.espnW: From a mental perspective, what do you think that next step is in terms of giving you that little push to clinch that major?Radwanska: I think a couple things need to click to win a Grand Slam, to win those seven matches in a row. While every major is different, and every draw is different, you cant really compare one to another. I just focus on this one and well see.espnW: If you had some advice for young athletes out there, what would that be?Radwanska: I get that question so many times. Its never easy to explain what you have to do. ... Its trying to play the same tennis in the tiebreaker as you would in the first game. I think gaining experience and playing a lot of matches [is good] and experiencing a lot of losses. Thats always a good lesson. Even when you dont win the match, its still a good lesson for you so you can figure out what to do next time to win the match. I dont think theres any one tip because its really hard.Prim Siripipat joined ESPN as an anchor in 2011 after spending three years in Miami covering the Dolphins, Heat and Marlins.

Every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, we pose a question to a rotating panel of ESPN fantasy basketball experts to gauge their thoughts on a hot topic. Cheap Jordan Shoes For Sale . Todays contributors are ESPN Fantasys Kyle Soppe and Joe Kaiser, and DFS expert Renee Miller.Jrue Holiday is set to make his season debut Friday. His overall fantasy game is comparable to what weve seen from Jeff Teague and Dennis Schroder this season, including the fact that all three come with significant question marks. Rank these three for the remainder of the season, factoring in games played, and explain your reasoning.Kyle Soppe: Despite all three of these point guards being very capable of producing strong fantasy numbers, I feel reasonably good about Schroder leading this trio. He was my highest-ranked of these three coming into the season based on my thoughts that he would thrive with a significant minutes uptick. And with more than 16 points and 6 assists a night, he has done nothing to be knocked off the top spot. Give me Teague over Holiday for the rest of the season, but not because hes the more talented player -- I dont think he is -- but rather for his raised floor. You know exactly what youre going to get from Teague, and you can feel good about getting that production for the entirety of the season (he has played in 95.8 percent of games since the beginning of the 2011-12 season). Holiday is capable of stuffing the stat sheet as well, but considering that he has missed 118 games over the last three-plus seasons and has serious family concerns, there is no reason to roll the dice for a marginal statistical bump at best. So its Schroder, Teague, Holiday for me the rest of the way.Joe Kaiser: Youre right, these three point guards are very comparable, but if I had to rank them 1-3, my order would be Holiday, Teague, then Schroder. The reasoning here isnt very complicated: While all three average right around 14-16 points, 2-3 rebounds and 6 assists per game, Holiday has a slight advantage over the others from 3-point range, and his career mark of 1.4 steals per game is narrowly ahead of Teague (1.2) and well ahead of Schroder, who surprisingly has never averaged more than 0.9 SPG in a season and is at 0.5 SPG as a starter this season. While Teague comes close to Holiday, what concerns me is his cold shooting on his new team in Indiana. A career 44.6-percent shooter, the 28-year-old is at 39.3 percent in his first 12 games as a Pacer, and the further we get into the season, the more that may be a lasting issue.One other factor to consider in all this is health, and thats where Teague and Schroder do have an advantage over the injury-prone Holiday, who has played in more than 65 games just once in the last five seasons. If that scares you away from the Pelicans point guard, Teague and Schroder might be better options to turn to since theyre safer bets to last the whole season.Renee Miller: Im not a person who likes to predict the distant future. Instead, I use the best information currently available to make good decisions in fantasy sports for today. If that decision involves picking up Holiday in a season-long league, Id make sure there are no significant costs associated with it. Ive always liked Holiday as a player, but he has a hard time staying healthy, missing around half the season in 2013-14 and 2014-15, and starting just 23 games last year.Given that, and the fact that when they do play, these three point guards put up similar numbers (16 points, 3 boards, 6 dimes, 1.5 swipes), Im making my decision between Schroder and the guy he used to back up in Atlanta, Teague, based on team factors. Atlanta plays at the fastest pace (fifth in the league), has the best effective field goal percentage (third in the league, important for assists) and is the best team of the three in terms of offensive and defensive efficiency. Together, those factors put Schroder in the best position to succeed long-term, but in DFS, I very much consider all three guards to be price- and matchup-dependent plays. Air Jordan Shoes For Sale .

What is a picosecond laser?

The Q Switch laser machine only does one thing, one thing. They produce a beam of light (in the form of particles called photons) that have the same wavelength (same color) and travel in the same direction. These allow the laser to make incredible things. For example, we can reflect lasers from barcodes and read barcodes, which are millions of times a day in grocery stores around the world. We can use laser cutting to make materials for the factory. We can reflect the exact distance of the moon by reflecting the laser from the moon. We can use lasers in medicine to treat diseases and make us more attractive.

The amount of power in the laser beam is based on the number of photons in the beam. More photons mean more energy. Fewer photons are not that powerful.

Now think about these photons propagating together in the beam. The time it takes for the first photon to pass the pointer to the last photon is called the pulse width and is measured in time. It's like a bunch of cars driving along the highway. The time from the first car to the point on the road to the last car is like the pulse width. For cars, it is measured in seconds or minutes. The measured value of the laser is one thousandth, one millionth or even one billionth of a second. Last year, the first picosecond laser was used to remove tattoos. It takes ten years to develop such a laser.

What is picosecond?

The picosecond is one trillionth of a second. I find this number difficult to understand, so the table below may give you a better understanding of what this means. Based on the speed of light, this watch is the fastest thing in the world. The speed of light is 186,282 miles per second. In a second, the light will travel around the earth for 7.5 seconds (7.5) times. The light will travel from the earth to the moon in 1.3 seconds.

So let's look at the distance the light travels at different time intervals.

As you can see from the table, the picosecond is so short that light, the fastest thing in the universe, can only move at the tip of a super fine nib. The picosecond is an incredibly short time.

Why is Picosecond revolutionary?

When the pulse width is long enough (the distance from the first photon to the last photon), the energy is absorbed slowly enough to heat the target, and we use this heat to destroy cells, such as hair follicles, or heavy collagen. In almost all cases, Q Switch ND YAG Laser Machine are used to generate heat. It is this heat that creates a wound and causes pain through treatment.

The picoseconds are different. The pulse width is very short and all photons in the beam hit the target almost exactly at the same time. Although not very close, photons in the beam will arrive together for all practical purposes. Photons arrive very fast, and heating effects do not produce shock waves in the target. We can create this shock wave without having to use that much power, which can reduce discomfort and any reaction (downtime).

When the target is a tattoo granule, it breaks down the tattoo ink into smaller particles that allow the body to remove the ink. The shock wave generated by Picosecond is very effective, and it can remove tattoos in 3 to 4 treatments when a conventional laser requires 12 to 15 treatments or more.

LONDON -- The English Premier League is exploring whether fans should be allowed to stand at games again, more than 20 years after stadiums were ordered to be all-seated. Cheap Authentic NBA Jerseys UK .It would require a change to the law banning standing areas after the 1989 Hillsborough disaster where 96 Liverpool fans were crushed to death in an overcrowded section of the stadium in Sheffield at a FA Cup semifinal.So-called safe-standing has been introduced in Scotland where seats can be flipped up and locked in place, providing space to stand behind a waist-high rail.The Premier League administration is receptive to calls for the standing areas and was asked by its clubs at a meeting on Thursday to look into the feasibility and safety of adopting the rail seats.This is a complex and emotive topic with a number of issues, varying from club to club, which need to be considered carefully before clubs can decide if they wish to pursue any changes, including legislative, that are required to allow them the option of safe standing areas in their grounds, the league said in a statement.The clubs have tasked the Premier League with scoping out the safety, supporter, technical and legislative? issues surrounding safe standing before any further discussions, based on the facts, can take place.Although 27 years have passed since Hillsborough, the ongoing legal battles by the families of the dead fans over the cause of Britains worst sports disaster has slowed the campaign for standing areas. A jury ruled this year that the victims were unlawfully killed and police and emergency services were to blame.Liverpool chief executive Ian Ayre declined to comment as he left the London meeting where standing was discussed. West Ham co-owner David Gold acknowledged it was a difficult subject and said there was so much to be done.English Football Association chairman Greg Clarke believes the atmosphere at games would be enhanced if fans could stand.The chances of falling over are much less if there is a rail in front of you, Clarke said. With the issues of Hillsborough they will want to ensure that its going to be safe and well-policed.If football works together on this then we could get a result and the fans would love it.UEFA insists on all-seat stadiums for European games, so any change to the law in England would only allow fans to stand during domestic fixtures.In Germany, there are standing sections, notably at Borussia Dortmund behind a goal where some of the loudest fans are.In France, the national supporters group is lobbying for the return of standing tribunes, arguing that they would improve safety and create a more festive atmosphere. But there is little appetite to relax stadium regulations which were toughened after the Furiani disaster in Corsica in 1992 when one of the terraces collapsed, killing 18 people.---AP Sports Writers Samuel Petrequin in Paris and Nesha Starcevic in Frankfurt, Germany contributed to this report.Rob Harris is at www.twitter.com/RobHarris and www.facebook.com/RobHarrisReports Wholesale Jerseys UK . -- The Magic have their first victory of the new year. Stitched NBA Jerseys UK . They were putting most of their energy into a record-setting offensive display. http://www.cheapnbajerseysuk.com/ . The Americans, skipped by John Shuster, seized the advantage in the eighth end by scoring five points for a 7-3 lead. The Czechs pulled two back in the ninth, but Shusters team of third Jeff Isaacson, second Jared Zezel and lead John Landsteiner ended with another point to secure the last Olympic berth on offer. COLLEGE FOOTBALLNEW YORK -- Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson is a Heisman Trophy finalist for the second consecutive season, joining Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson, Michigan linebacker Jabrill Peppers and Oklahoma teammates Baker Mayfield and Dede Westbrook.The award will be presented Saturday in New York.Watson finished third in last years voting, won by Alabama running back Derrick Henry.CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Alabama senior defensive lineman Jonathan Allen won the Bronko Nagurski Trophy given annually to the nations best college defensive player. Allen was selected over four other finalists, including Crimson Tide teammate Reuben Foster.WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. -- Jeff Brohm is leaving Western Kentucky to take the head coaching job at Purdue.Brohm replaces Darrell Hazell, who was fired after winning just nine games in 3 1/2 seasons. Gerad Parker took over on an interim basis halfway through last season and went 0-6.Brohm, a former Louisville quarterback, went 30-10 in three seasons at Western Kentucky and has led the Hilltoppers to bowl bids all three seasons.BASEBALLSAN FRANCISCO -- Free-agent closer Mark Melancon and the San Francisco Giants agreed to a $62 million, four-year contract, pending a physical.Its the richest contract ever for a closer, topping Jonathan Papelbons $50 million, four-year deal with the Phillies from 2012-15, and the average annual value tops Mariano Riveras $15 million with the New York Yankees from 2011-12.Melancon gets a full no-trade clause and the chance to opt out after the first two years.
