1) Dodgers P Kazuhisa Ishii had to leave yesterday's game, after being hit in the head by a line drive off Brian Hunter's bat. Ishii suffered a small skull fracture and was hospitalized overnight for observations. According to MGR Jim Tracy, Ishii is out indefinitely.
Ishii, a 28 year old American rookie, is off to a 4.27 ERA/-9 RSAA start in his first 28 starts. 2) The Mets called up P Jason Middlebrook. 2) The Rangers set the major league record by homering in their 26th consecutive game. 3) The Whitesox released SS Royce Clayton. After -38 RCAA/.685 OPS and -20 RCAA/.708 OPS the past 2 years, Clayton's off to a .365 SLG, .295 OBA, .661 OPS, -17 RCAA start in his first 112 games. He has a .683 career OPS, compared to his league average of .764, and -203 RCAA in 1459 games. 4) Phillies LF Jeremy Giambi had to leave yesterday's game, due to a strained right hamstring. After -3 RCAA/.761 OPS and 14 RCAA/.841 OPS the past 2 years, Giambi's off to a .507 SLG, .415 OBA, .922 OPS, 27 RCAA start in his first 116 games (first 42 with the A's). He has a .818 career OPS, compared to his league average of .775, and 33 RCAA in 452 games. 5) Giants RF Reggie Sanders says he'd like to stay with the team, but wants a multi year contract. The Giants and Sanders have mutual options for next year. 6) The Pirates released P Sean Lowe. After 5.48 ERA/-2 RSAA and 3.61 ERA/-14 RSAA with the Whitesox the past 2 years, Lowe's off to a 5.35 ERA/-7 RSAA start in his first 43 games (1 start).
