  • RAYS CLIPS August 20, 2010
    RAYS CLIPS August 20, 2010 Tampa Bay Rays are doing the right thing by protecting Jeremy Hellickson's arm By John Romano, Times Sports Columnist With Jeremy Hellickson, the future takes precedence over the present. ST. PETERSBURG After his first three big-league starts, the rookie pitcher in Washington had a 2-0 record. His ERA was 1.86, and opponents were batting .149 against him. Stephen Strasburg ended up on the cover of Sports Illustrated. After his first three big-league starts, the rookie pitcher in Tampa Bay had a 3-0 record. His ERA was 1.35, and opponents were batting .136 against him. Jeremy Hellickson could very well end up in Triple A after his next start tonight. Kind of makes you wonder if the Rays are - how shall I put this - insane? In the ramshackle history of an expansion franchise, no Rays starting pitcher has ever made such a dramatic entrance. Hellickson has been poised, he has been efficient, he has, by far, been better than anyone could have reasonably expected. So are the Rays making a huge mistake by not taking advantage of Hellickson while fighting for first place? No, they're not. At least, not at this point. Certainly, we can all agree on the notion of seizing the day in a pennant race. We wouldn't mind spending more of ownership's money, and we might be willing to trade a prospect at the right price. But risking a young player's future? That should be nonnegotiable. And that's why this story is not as simple as it seems.

  • Weekly Notes 072817
    MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL WEEKLY NOTES FRIDAY, JULY 28, 2017 BLACKMON WORKING TOWARD HISTORIC SEASON On Sunday afternoon against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Coors Field, Colorado Rockies All-Star outfi elder Charlie Blackmon went 3-for-5 with a pair of runs scored and his 24th home run of the season. With the round-tripper, Blackmon recorded his 57th extra-base hit on the season, which include 20 doubles, 13 triples and his aforementioned 24 home runs. Pacing the Majors in triples, Blackmon trails only his teammate, All-Star Nolan Arenado for the most extra-base hits (60) in the Majors. Blackmon is looking to become the fi rst Major League player to log at least 20 doubles, 20 triples and 20 home runs in a single season since Curtis Granderson (38-23-23) and Jimmy Rollins (38-20-30) both accomplished the feat during the 2007 season. Since 1901, there have only been seven 20-20-20 players, including Granderson, Rollins, Hall of Famers George Brett (1979) and Willie Mays (1957), Jeff Heath (1941), Hall of Famer Jim Bottomley (1928) and Frank Schulte, who did so during his MVP-winning 1911 season. Charlie would become the fi rst Rockies player in franchise history to post such a season. If the season were to end today, Blackmon’s extra-base hit line (20-13-24) has only been replicated by 34 diff erent players in MLB history with Rollins’ 2007 season being the most recent. It is the fi rst stat line of its kind in Rockies franchise history. Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig is the only player in history to post such a line in four seasons (1927-28, 30-31).

  • Baltimore Orioles: Jeremy Hellickson Trade Is a Head Scratcher
    Baltimore Orioles: Jeremy Hellickson Trade Is a Head Scratcher Author : A few nights ago, the MLB trade market was active. There were three trades completed Friday evening, all of which involved teams in the NL East. One of those trades also involved the Baltimore Orioles, as they acquired starting pitcher Jeremy Hellickson from the Philadelphia Phillies. In exchange, the O's sent outfielder Hyun Soo Kim, minor league lefty Garrett Cleavinger and some international bonus money to the Phils. But the fact that the Orioles, who are widely expected to sell, are adding a starting pitcher, leads to the question, why make such a move? Following play on Sunday evening, Baltimore sat four games under .500, with a 50-54 record following a win over the Texas Rangers. That record is good for fourth in the AL East, which is 6.5 games behind the division leading New York Yankees. As for the Wild Card, they are 5.5 games back, and need to leap frog five clubs to make it into the playoff picture. As a result, adding an inning eater type of arm, who is no more than above average, is not exactly the type of 1 / 2 move that turns a team's season around. Sure the team has been below average in the rotation, but adding Hellickson honestly does not do much to change that. This is not a move for the future either. Hellickson, who is 30 years old, is pitching on a one-year deal. After the season, he becomes a free agent once more as he looks to enter his age 31 season.
