Ryan And Tannenbaum Will Stay On For Next Two Years Posted: 30 Jul 2010 12:56 PM PDT
Both have now got two year extensions. The news was announced on Friday this week. The two years extension means that both will be there for the next 5 seasons with the team. Ryan who is a former Ravens defendor, led them to a 9-7 record and then a play-off run too. Jets have a lot to expect from the 2010 season. Mark Sanchez has one year to go and with LaDainian Tomlison in back field and a strong defense, things are looking good for the jets. Tannenbaum meanwhile is in his 13th year as the general manager of the team. |

Eng vs. Pak: James Anderson Cut The Cake of Pakistani Batting Line Up on his 28th Birthday Posted: 30 Jul 2010 11:46 AM PDT
In this England vs. Pakistan test match Pakistani pace battery did splendid job and set the tone for Pakistani batsman. But Pakistani batsman failed to score big. First Mohammed Asif made his presence felt by taking five British wickets quickly then British Quickie James Anderson spun Pakistani batting line up like wheel of bicycle. Anderson was unpredictable, furious like wind storm. Anderson blew off the Pakistani batting line up single handedly. He claimed five wickets on his 28th birthday. When Pakistani batsmen came to bat so Anderson pounced at Pakistani batting line up like some hungry lion right from the word go. He played havoc with Pakistani batting line up. No Pakistani batsmen could cope up with the pace and line and length of James Anderson. This gave lot of confidence to new Quickie of England named Steven Finn who also chipped in with 3 wickets later. For Pakistan only Shoib Malik 38, Mohamed Amer 25 and tail ender Umar Gul 30 could play to some extent. Umar Gul is still present on the crease with Mohammed Asif who is yet to open his account. Now you can well imagine the condition of Pakistan in this match. For bringing Pakistan in this condition none other then James Anderson is responsible. Anderson bowled with lot of passion, devotion, heart, and seriously furious pace and line and length today. He alone rattled the Pakistani batting line up. Now the bad light has stopped play and Pakistani team is creeping at 147/9 with still a long way to go. Pakistan still needs 8 runs to avoid the follow on with just a one wicket in hand. Moreover, even if Pakistan some manages to avoid follow on yet it will not be easy to come back for Pakistan in this test match because this is just a day 2 of this England vs. Pakistan test match. They are still 207 runs behind from England. So now England has lot of time to put Pakistan under pressure and make them panic and win the match. But as we all know that Pakistan is a mercurial team so they can do anything anytime. So despite heaving a huge lead England can not afford to take Pakistan lightly. Pakistan will surely try to come back by hook or by crook and do something in order to make a fight here in this England vs. Pakistan test match. |

Adams died earlier this week following a climbing accident on Mount Rainier. The 52-year-old scientist reportedly was part of a four-man crew climbing down the mountain on Emmons Glacier. The group was at a height of about 13,000 feet when Adams fell 35 feet into a deep crevasse. Officials say that another climber was hurt and two others escaped injuries during the fall. Lee Taylor, Mount Rainier National Park’s Information Officer expressed his condolence and was saddened said that the simple “misstep” had such severe consequences for the team. Rescuers were able to retrieve Adams’ body from the crevasse on Wednesday and airlifted the remains off the mountain by helicopter. The Washington Alpine Club’s chairman Pat O’Brian said that Adams was on the climbing trek with a friend from Texas and his friend’s two teenage sons. They were travelling through the second most popular route on the 14,411 foot mountain where the incident occurred. Article © AHN – All Rights Reserved |

The Phillies, who already shelled out $142 million in salary, will reportedly take on another $5 million with the acquisition of the pitcher.

Report: Trail Blazers Look To Deal Rudy Fernandez Posted: 30 Jul 2010 05:55 AM PDT Jojo Doria – AHN Sports Contributor Portland, OR, United States (AHN) – The Portland Trail Blazers are reportedly exploring trade options for Rudy Fernandez. The Blazers are talking to three Eastern Conference teams interested in the Spanish swingman. According to Oregon Live.com, the Blazers, who acquired the draft rights to Fernandez from Phoenix, are in discussions with the Knicks, Celtics and Bulls about the 25-year-old shooting guard Originally selected 24th overall by the Suns in the 2007 Draft, Fernandez joined the Blazers in September 2008 after participating with the Spanish national team at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. According to multiple reports, the once-popular shooting guard has been unhappy in Portland because of limited playing time. The former Spanish star backs up All-Star Brandon Roy. Fernandez, who set an NBA rookie record of 159 three-pointers made two seasons ago, also failed to adapt to the playing style of coach Nate McMillan, who prefers to use the 6-foot-6 swingman as an outside shooter. Fernandez has two years remaining on his contract with Portland. Last season, he averaged 8.1 points and 2.0 assists in 62 games. According to the Oregonian, trade talks for Fernandez will likely be placed on the “back burner until Sunday.” General manager Rich Cho will reportedly meet with coach McMillan Sunday regarding the issue.

Dodgers Acquire Royals Outfielder Podsednik; Tigers Obtain Peralta Posted: 30 Jul 2010 05:05 AM PDT AHN Sports Staff Los Angeles, CA, United States (AHN) – The Los Angeles Dodgers addressed the gaping hole in their roster with the acquisition of veteran outfielder Scott Podsednik from the Kansas City Royals, several media outlets reported Wednesday. With outfielder Manny Ramirez still on the mend, the Dodgers dealt their best catching prospect Lucas May and Class A hurler Elisaul Pimentel for Podsednik. Podsednik, who’s still entitled to receive $650,000 this season, was averaging .310 with 5 homers, 44 RBI, 46 runs, and 30 stolen bases. The 34-year old Podsednik is expected to add experience and depth to the Dodgers outfield, which was already filled with all-star caliber names. However, injuries have certainly slowed down the Dodgers (54-47), who hope Podsednik would become another piece in their possible championship puzzle. Meanwhile, the Detroit Tigers also improved their lineup after acquiring third baseman Jhonny Peralta from the Cleveland Indians. The Tigers badly needed a player who can fill up the offensive production of Magglio Ordonez and Carlos Guillen, who are still recovering with their injuries. Peralta, 28, is batting .246 with 7 homers, 43 RBI and 37 runs in 91 games with the Cleveland Indians this season. The Indians nabbed pitching prospect Giovanni Soto, who went 6-6 with a 2.91 ERA and 76 strikeouts over 82 2/3 innings at low Class A West Michigan this season. Article © AHN – All Rights Reserved |
Nats` Strasburg Goes On Disabled List; Senator Bunning Rips Pitcher Posted: 30 Jul 2010 05:05 AM PDT AHN Sports Staff Washington, DC, United States (AHN) – Washington Nationals pitcher Stephen Strasburg will take 10 days of rest and go on the disabled list before reevaluating his ailing right shoulder, the team indicated Wednesday. Strasburg missed a scheduled start Tuesday vs. the Braves and will skip Sunday’s turn in the rotation vs. the Phils. Strasburg, 22, reportedly felt soreness in his right shoulder after collecting his fifth win of the season against the Cincinnati Reds last week. After scratching Strasburg from a scheduled start Tuesday against the Atlanta Braves, Nationals manager Jim Riggleman told Sirius/XM Radio the pitcher will shut down his activity for next 1 1-2 weeks. That means Strasburg will miss his next turn in the rotation vs. the Philadelphia Phillies Sunday. “We are going to monitor his progress — stretching and strengthening of the shoulder, things of that nature,” Nationals head athletic trainer Lee Kuntz told MLB.com Wednesday. “Right now, we are going to let the medication work, and he feels better. Strasburg, the first overall pick in 2009 MLB draft, is 5-2 with a 2.32 ERA and 15 walks. His 75 strikeouts over 54.1 innings were the most from a rookie pitcher in baseball history. Senator Jim Bunning, meanwhile, criticized the pitcher for what he sees as an overly cautious approach to his career. “Five-hundred twenty starts, I never refused the ball,” Bunning, a former MLB pitcher, told POLITICO. “What a joke!” Article © AHN – All Rights Reserved |
