lol, Grienke has something to say about this.So now that we know Wainwright has the Cy Young locked up, does he win NL MVP?
Tulowitzki is obviously the MVP right now.
Stanton and Puig also up there.
Tulow benefits from playing at coors field. He's a can when he plays on the road.
Royals manager Ned Yost said Tuesday that Yordano Ventura has been diagnosed with valgus stress overload.
Yahoo! Sports' Jeff Passan notes that the condition does not bode well for Ventura's future, as it can lead to "cartilage damage, arthritis and bone chips," as well as "instability that leaves (the) UCL prone (to damage)." So, while an MRI has revealed that Ventura has no structural damage, it sounds like he's definitely not out of the woods yet. Royals general manager Dayton Moore told MLB Network Tuesday that he expects Ventura to miss just one start, but this could wind up being a long-term issue.
The Rangers said that MRI results on Yu Darvish's neck were "unremarkable."
In other words, his neck is structurally sound. Darvish was scratched from Tuesday's outing due to neck stiffness and it's not clear when he'll be ready to start again. The right-hander got a late start this year due to neck issues and has battled problems with his neck since last season. Darvish seems likely to avoid the DL, but we'll just have to see how he recovers over the next few days.
