| nta Braves can't really ask for more from rookie Tommy Hanson, as the hurler has so far met most expectations since his debut. Hanson, though, might have a little request for his team's offense. Hanson makes his first career start versus the San Diego Padres today and will aim to pitch Atlanta to a series win in the finale of a three-game set at Petco Park. The 22-year-old phenom went 5-0 over his first eight big league starts, but has since dropped back-to-back contests in which the Braves were |

Right at the 4:00 EDT deadline, Chicago pulled off a stunner, as it acquired former Cy Young Award winner Jake Peavy, who turned down a deal to the Pale Hose earlier in the year, from the San Diego Padres. I was ready to label the White Sox as losers on the day with Detroit's pickup of Jarrod Washburn and Minnesota's trade for Orlando Cabrera, but with the Peavy deal, Chicago could be the biggest winners of the whole deadline, provided of cou |
