08:03 AM ET 07.07 | The rumor of the Rays' alleged interest in Cliff Lee has been out there for a while now, but on Tuesday it exploded in ways we have never seen around these parts. All it took was a declaration from owner Stu Sternberg that he is willing to increase payroll a lot to keep his club in the race for the World Series.

08:53 AM ET 07.07 | Wayne McDonnell Jr., a professor at New York University's Tisch Center for Hospitality, Tourism, and Sports Management says Mavericks owner Mark Cuban would not be allowed to purchase the Texas Rangers. The Texas Rangers are set to go on the auction block next week after an unexpected snag in the team's bankruptcy plans. "Even if (Dallas Mavericks owner) Mark Cuban wanted to buy the Rangers, Major League Baseball would reject him because of who he is, even though he is brilliant and talented,'' McDonnell said. "MLB doesn't want someone who will rock the boat.''

06:01 AM ET 07.06 | Perhaps Dallas Braden is more upset with his A's now for marketing a "Get Off My Mound" T-shirt than he is with noted mound-crosser Alex Rodriguez. Asked last night if he had talked with Rodriguez since the April 22 incident when A-Rod crossed the mound on his way back to first after a foul ball, Braden said, "No, I must have lost his phone number." A few minutes later the lefty was seen boxing up an autographed poster and some other goodies that were sent over to the Yankees clubhouse as a peace offering to A-Rod.
