| Did Gil Meche Give Up A-Rod's 500th Home Run Last Night? |

| Don't start shaking your head no just yet. We won't know for sure if the ball A-Rod stroked just short of the fountains in Kauffman Stadium was actually his 499th career blast until Friday night. That's when the Yankees finish their suspended game in Camden Yards, a game which you'll recall was halted by rain on June 28th. Whatever the result |

| Deion Sanders should probably keep his thoughts about Michael Vick to himself.What a dog means to Vick might be a lot different than what he means to you or I. Hold on, don't start shaking your head just yet. Listen to me. Some people kiss their dogs on the mouth. Some people let their dogs eat from their plate. Some people dress their dogs |

But someone taking money from airlines and hotels on the side is just one of the problems facing the Bombers organization today. I'm watching Mike Francesa (sans Mad Dog) on YES right now and the ticker on the bottom of the screen |

| Deadline Dealings Begin |

| How long before July 31 can you make a trade and call it a "deadline deal"? I'd say anything within a week of the 31st qualifies which means yesterday's deal between the Padres and Brewers is the first trade of this year's swapping season. The Brewers picked up reliever Scott Linebrink from the Friars in exchange for three minor league pitchers. |

He had the job just long enough to get strafed in two blown saves at Fenway Park before getting moved out of the job. Fast forward to last night at Jacobs Field. The Red Sox have been away for a while and haven't run into Carmona during his breakout season as |

| It will be interesting to see if Alex Rodriguez can connect for his 500th home run against Jorge De La Rosa of the Royals tonight. De La Rosa gave up #400 a little more than two years ago and if he should find himself on the wrong side of history again it may have the strange effect of guaranteeing him a job for life.

The show has had many sports associations, most notably the Homer at the Bat episode featuring a fistful of major leaguers, and cameos from a varied group that includes Joe Frazier, Chick Hearn, Gerry Cooney and Yao Ming. Hell, they've even referenced Esteban Yan. What they've never |

| Did you ever have one of those terrible, horrible, no-good, very-bad days? Or weeks? The St. Louis Cardinals have no sympathy because they are having one of those years. It started when Tony La Russa got arrested for DUI during spring training, got worse when the team stumbled out of the gate in an ill-fated defense of their World Series |

| These daily Yankee looks are getting a bit repetitive. Unlike some of the early season runs they are repetitive in a good way but still there's only so many ways to describe a team outhitting, outpitching and outeverything elseing their opponents. It's fun to watch but a bit boring to read about. So, in quick and easy checklist form, the 9-4 |

| Charging Kei Igawa with leading your surge forward is a move that brings to mind a team led by George Bush. There's no chance for success, you're betting too much blood and treasure on a guy who isn't up to the task and it shows an almost criminal disregard for the well-being of your troops. Thankfully for the Yankees, George Bush is only |

Phillie fans probably think he got off easy. Utley suffered a broken hand when Lannan's pitch connected and will miss up to a month at a time when the Phillies need him to help |

| I'm heading out to Seattle next week and since part of the trip will be taking in the Mariners and the Red Sox from the friendly confines of Safeco Field next Friday night I was poking around the M's website. I found a lot more than ticketing information and the time of the game. A lot more than that and my discovery shook me to my core. |
