Shortstop Jack Wilson sought out members of the media on Wednesday afternoon to issue a public apology for comments he made on Tuesday after learning that teammates Nyjer Morgan and Sean Burnett had been traded to Washington.

Adam Kennedy & Russ Springer (Athletics):
Adam Kennedy's experience, versatility and somewhat surprising success this season should make him the subject of a few phone calls, too. I also wouldn't be shocked if a team in need of bullpen help were willing to overlook Russ Springer's uneven season to this point and take a look at picking him up.

Scott Rolen (Blue Jays):
The Blue Jays provided plenty of support, pounding out five runs and three home runs against Rays right-hander James Shields. Barajas belted a solo homer in the seventh to push Toronto out to a 3-0 lead, and Adam Lind and Scott Rolen connected for back-to-back solo blasts to left in the eighth to add to that advantage. Rolen had earlier extended his hitting streak to 19 games with a single in the sixth inning.

Xavier Nady (Yankees):
Unable to avoid the inevitability any longer, the Yankees announced on Wednesday that outfielder Xavier Nady has abandoned his attempts to rehab his right elbow and will undergo Tommy John elbow reconstruction surgery next Wednesday, effectively ending his season.

Dan Haren (Diamondbacks):
Though a trade seems unlikely, the Diamondbacks do not appear to have ruled out the idea of moving Haren. It likely would take a package similar to the one they gave up two years ago to pry him away.

Placido Polanco (Tigers):
Second baseman Placido Polanco won a Gold Glove in 2007, and yet Tigers manager Jim Leyland sees improvement in him this year.
