“Why would i want to go where fans only support you from the 3rd inn. thru the 6th?’” was the grammatically poor tweet that CBS’ Jon Heyman used as an explanation for why Cole Hamels will not be returning to San Diego as a free agent to play for the home town Padres.

The Detroit Tigers reached out to Roy Oswalt to fill the fifth spot of their great mix of young studs and flame throwing Justin Verlander.
