Ted Lilly doesn't get the no-hitter, but he does get his first win in a while. Some links for tonight..
- A.J. Pierzynski is looking forward to not having to talk about the possibility of being traded, writes Joe Cowley of the Chicago Sun-Times.
- There have been noticeable changes for the Yanks since their last showdown with the Phillies in the Bronx, writes MLB.com's Tim Britton.
- If asked, the Dodgers aren't likely to grant the Orioles permission to interview third base coach Larry Bowa, according to Dylan Hernandez of the Los Angeles Times.
- The recently DFA'd Jake Fox told MLB.com's Jane Lee (via Twitter) that he wasn't too surprised by the move.
- The Tigers are unlikely to go through lengthy negotiations with catcher Patrick Leyland, son of manager Jim Leyland, writes Chris Iott of MLive.com. Detroit took Leyland in the 8th round of the draft.
Patrick Leyland VS Ozney Guillen…The Laddermatch
Any bets?
Honestly, why would the Dodgers allow it? He is the guy who balances Torre. Torre is laid back, Bowa gets in your face. We need that, and the Dodgers are smart to not let him go..
pierzynski wasn’t traded cause no mlb team wants some low hitting catcher. seems like both the cubs and sox have a few players at the end of their contract year playing poorly and proving to be untradeable.
Where is Jake Fox likely to land? Needs to be an AL team that wants to create a little competition at DH. I still think he can hit if given the opportunity, he could turn into a late-blooming Matt Stairs type. Seattle needs to jump on him.
bring Fox back to Chicago to take over for Lee. We have no 1st base prospects

he’s also a hot head, not the good kind. It kinda explains why he’s still a 3rd base coach.
