Darren Oliver (Angles):
While the Angels' bullpen makeup has continued to change throughout the first half of the season, one piece of its structure has stayed constant.

Scott Rolen (Blue Jays):
Gaston was hoping that chain of events would lead to another clutch hit for hot-hitting third baseman Scott Rolen, who extended his career-best hitting streak to 21 games with a fourth-inning double. Instead, Rolen popped out to New York second baseman Robinson Cano, and Jays first baseman Lyle Overbay followed with a lineout that ended the inning.

Braden Looper (Brewers):
Looper did make it stand, escaping bases-loaded jams in each of the first two innings on the way to his second straight win. He limited the Cubs to two runs -- on Milton Bradley's homer in the third -- over six innings.

Dan Haren (Diamondbacks):
On a day he likely will be named to the National League All-Star team, D-backs starter Dan Haren will take the mound in the series finale against the Rockies.

Kiko Calero (Marlins):
Kiko Calero's first rehab assignment appearance was an impressive one.

Ron Villone (Nationals):
In his first 19 appearances, Nationals reliever Ron Villone didn't give up a run in 17 innings.
But in his past 10 appearances, Villone is 0-5 and has given up eight runs in six innings. His ERA is now at 3.13. Villone last pitched on Friday against the Braves, giving up a run in one-third of an inning in a 9-8 loss.

Jamie Moyer (Phillies):
Left-hander Jamie Moyer made the 600th start of his career -- the only other active pitcher to have more than 600 starts is Randy Johnson, who has 602 -- a good one. He allowed just five hits, one run and one walk and struck out one in 6 1/3 innings.
