I say this without even the slightest bit of exaggeration - Alex Torres's hat is the best addition the Mets have made in 2 years

If he doesn't rock a Met version of this - a Met version I in turn can buy at some point - I will never be more disappointed

The Chicago Cubs have reassigned top prospect Kris Bryant, who leads the majors with nine spring training home runs, to their minor league camp.

The Cubs made the move Monday, less than a week before they open their season against the St. Louis Cardinals.

CLEARWATER, Fla. -- Justin Verlander played catch briefly Sunday morning for the first time since leaving a start with a cramp in his right tricep, but it remained unclear when the Detroit Tigers ace would pitch again.

Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said Verlander did some light tossing at the team's spring training camp at Lakeland and still felt "a little bit tight," but otherwise reported some general improvement.

David Price already has been named the team's Opening Day starter.

"With the off day [April 7], we could conceivably pitch him on Sunday (April 12) against Cleveland, so he'd get those extra four days," Ausmus said. "So we could give him a little extra time if necessary. We're not there yet."

Verlander left his start Friday against Toronto in the third inning. Prior to his injury, Verlander's fastball had been clocked from 94 to 96 mph, his best velocity readings of the spring. Both the Tigers' staff and opposing scouts have said it was the best he'd thrown in two years.

Don't know if I could utilize it that much to justify the purchase, but MLB Network just offers enough and does a good job with the commentary, the live look-ins and the games they choose.
