Francisco Liriano (LHP, MIN) pitched another gem Wednesday night, going 6.2 innings, 1 ER, 2 BB, 6 K, but he did not factor in the decision. Since being re-inserted into the rotation on May 30, Lirano has put together a sparking line: 30.1 IP, 2.67 ERA, 10.5 Dom, and 2.9 Cmd. In addition, all five starts were PQS-DOM ...

Hard to believe that the midpoint of June has passed and Cliff Lee (LHP, PHI) still sports a zero in the win column. Unlike some of his Phillies teammates, there are no concerns about Lee from a skills perspective.

Jay Bruce (OF, CIN) entered the season with high expectations—coming off his first 30-HR season, good xBA trend, still just 25—but a .229 May BA raised some questions. But he's back to his old stroke in the first 10 days of June.

The Rangers on Thursday placed Derek Holland (LHP, TEX) on the 15-day DL with what was officially described as "shoulder fatigue." Plus Jason Bay and Ike Davis, the PHI 2B situation and more ...

Johan Santana (LHP, NYM) secured his place in Mets history with his no-hitter on Friday night. But even before his stellar outing, Santana had looked fully recovered from the shoulder concerns that kept him out of action in 2011.

A handful of high-profile players hit the DL: Tulowitzki, Kemp, Markakis. Plus in Atlanta, a rookie shortstop shakeup and much ado about eyeglasses.

With the calendar about to turn to June, even the most patient fantasy leaguers begin to question just how long to wait out slow starts. Exhibit A: Rickie Weeks (2B, MIL).

Skipper Robin Ventura confirmed earlier this week that which had become obvious from recent usage patterns: that Addison Reed (RHP, CHW) was now the team's primary closer. After naming Hector Santiago (LHP, CHW), then the infamous "committee" as the team's stopper over the first six-plus weeks, Ventura seems to have put his stamp on what skills-based analysts have been saying all along: that given his high strikeout rate (11.5 Dom), good Cmd (2.4), Reed is the best Sox reliever to have at the end of the game.

After another successful PQS-DOM start on Tuesday, Jordan Lyles (RHP, HOU) will remain the Astros rotation for time being, the club announced. Lyles had a spot start in April (also a PQS-DOM) and had sprinted out to a 5-0, 3.49 ERA start with a 4.0 Cmd in Triple-A before his May 15 callup.

When Tim Lincecum (RHP, SF) started the 2012 season by surrendering 16 ER in his first 13.2 IP, everyone chalked it up to small sample size. And since then, he has had some better outings. But after seven GS, the numbers have not yet recovered.
