Cleveland Indians closer Brad Hand navigates baseball’s late-inning stress by keeping an even keel | Cleveland.com
You won’t see Brad Hand getting fired up before entering a game. And it seems to be working for him.
Got some bad news for you if you’re a DISH or Sling user...
Around the league
- Joc Pederson didn’t run out a ground ball and was pulled by Dave Roberts.
- Jason Vargas to the Phillies.
- Ken Giles, a potential trade target, has been unavailable due to elbow soreness.
- Marcus Stroman is excited to pitch in New York.
- Max Scherzer is on the 10-day IL with a rhomboid strain.
- Apparently the GMs around MLB aren’t too happy with the current trade deadline:
There is a growing sentiment among GMs to push the #MLB trade deadline back to Aug. 15 to give teams more time to determine whether they are buyers or sellers in light of slow activity. They will discuss at the GM meetings in November in Phoenix.
