Since coming to the big leagues in 2004, Jesse Crain has been a very good pitcher for the Minnesota Twins. Though not a household name, he has excelled as a key component of the Twins bullpen. His career ERA is around 3, which made this year really susrprising: he's gotten off to a rocky start with a 5.51 ERA, and 4 HR allowed already. Two days ago, Tuesday, he was completely ineffective, allowing 6 runs to Cleveland.He's hit the DL today and the news from today's MRI is, most emphatically, not good:Torn rotator cuff.Torn labrum.They're getting a second opinion, but I…

Continuing the series of division-by-division looks at the teams in MLB. Today, the NL Central. With six teams, we're going to do this in TWO posts, so it won't be so god-awful long. So, first, teams 1-3 in the standings: 1. Milwaukee Brewers (24-10, 0 GB) - OK, so they've had a very favorable early-season schedule. They've played 8 more games at home than on the road, and just finished beating up on the Nationals. None of that changes the fact that the BREWERS have the best record in the game. All they've done so far is turn baseball on its ear by storming…
