Scott Rolen (Blue Jays):
With his solo blast deep to center field in Tuesday's game against the Reds, Blue Jays third baseman Scott Rolen showed the kind of power every team looks for in a cleanup hitter.

Braden Looper (Brewers):
Looper surrendered three runs in six innings but got one run back when he hit an RBI single with two outs in the second off Blackburn. Looper worked into a full count before grounding a base hit through the hole between shortstop and third base to tie the game at 1.

Dan Haren (Diamondbacks):
Haren (6-5) was charged with two runs on four hits in seven innings for the loss. He struck out eight and walked one batter in the 116-pitch outing. The right-hander still leads the National League in ERA and is among the leaders in innings pitched, batting average against and strikeouts.

Joe Girardi (Yankees MGR):
Joe Girardi does not favor the salty brand of four-letter language that typically earns quick ejections from big league umpires, but the Yankees' manager had decided he wouldn't be leaving the field until forced to.

Xavier Nady (Yankees):
Assigned to Triple-A Scranton-Wilkes Barre to begin rehab assignment.
Placido Polanco (Tigers):
Polanco will likely be allowed to chase free agency this autumn. It appears the Tigers will move a new second baseman into the picture in 2010. The dicey decision for the Tigers will be whether to offer Polanco arbitration. If they offer it and he accepts, they're on the hook for a big payday in 2010.
Detroit News
Cesar Izturis (Orioles):
Though shortstop Cesar Izturis is probably at least two weeks from coming off the disabled list, his return could create an interesting roster decision for the Orioles.
Baltimore Sun
Ronnie Belliard (Nationals):
Nationals second baseman Ronnie Belliard will not see much action on the field for a while. In fact, since June 10, Belliard has two at-bats.
