      Tie-Breaker Mayhem in NL?

      Imagine for a moment that Mets, Phillies, Diamondbacks, Padres and Rockies all finished with the same record. That could mean ties in the NL East, West and wild-card, and four days of tie-breaker games to send two teams packing. In the East, Philly would host New York for a one-game playoff.

      Wells Cut by Padres; May Hang It Up

      David Wells may have pitched his last game. The Padres released the 44-year-old left-hander yesterday to make room for Chris Young, who's coming off the disabled list. It's up to Wells now whether he'll retire or stay available and try to land a spot with another team. The boisterous Boomer hasn't shown any signs of mellowing; just last week commish Bud Selg fined him $5,000 for an argument with an ump More »
