Where the fun never stops.

• Octavio Dotel to the Dodgers?-The Royals are happy that Octavio Dotel has finally gotten healthy after spending most of his time this season on the disabled list. They're even happier that he's performing well in the role of closer. Not because they plan on keeping him, but because they'll probably be able to get something for him now at the trade deadline. One of a few teams that have become interested in Dotel's services are the Los Angeles Dodgers.
• Scott Olsen Loves To Fight-PostmanR let you know yesterday that the Marlins had suspended pitcher Scott Olsen two games for "insubordination." Yet, the Marlins wouldn't elaborate on what exactly Olsen did to undermine the team or his manager's wishes. Well, this is Scott Olsen. He gets into like 5 fights a day. Be it with opponents, teammates, fans, or the mailman. He just wants to hit somebody, and it's that desire to hit somebody that got him suspended.
• Ozzie Guillen Is Not Thinking Extension-With the White Sox in Cleveland where Eric Wedge just signed a contract extension, and with his team recently extending Mark Buehrle, the question came up about Ozzie Guillen getting one for himself from the White Sox. Ozzie is signed through next season, but he's smart enough to know that now isn't the time to talk about a new deal.
• Ervin Santana's Job Is in Danger-Ervin Santana may have driven the Angels nuts earlier this season with the disparity between his pitching at home and on the road, but they were willing to deal with it. As long as he was pitching at Angels Stadium, he was fine. Now Santana can't pitch on the road or at home. In his last five starts Santana has gone 0-4 with an 8.00 ERA, and with the Angels fighting to hold off the Mariners, they're losing their patience with him.
