The News According to Larry Stone on Twitter, Mariners' manager Don Wakamatsu believes that Cliff Lee suffered his abdominal strain when he collided with Arizona catcher Chris Snyder last Monday. Our View This may be reason behind why Lee threw at Snyder and got slapped with a five game suspension. He was treated for the injury on Friday, but we won't much about him until he's reevaluated in a week. Whether the suspension holds or the injury flares up, it looks as if he may miss his first start of the season. Read More

The News Chad Qualls recorded exactly one out on Friday and managed to allow six runs on five hits and a walk before getting yanked.

The News Trevor Cahill allowed just one run over five innings on Friday, surrendering five hits and striking out one against zero walks. Our View This was an impressive outing for the young hurler, but unfortunately his low K-rate makes him a dicey fantasy play. His success this season will rely on inducing plenty of groundball outs, so if he can do that he'll help in a few categories, but owners will really miss the Ks. Read More

The News Greg Smith sparkled on Friday, allowing just one run on three hits and a walk over five innings and striking out six. Our View Smith isn't a candidate to make the Rockies' rotation, but he's likely first in line if injury strikes or the club is in need of a spot start. His 1.93 spring ERA will attest to that.
