First, let's get this out of the way: Tim Tebow didn't make this installment of Bleacher Report's MLB Team of the Week.

In fact, according to B/R's own Scott Miller—who attended Tebow's recent, much-hyped baseball showcase—the former NFL quarterback isn't likely to make an MLB team of any kind anytime soon.

When the injury bug ambushed and carried off Giancarlo Stanton in mid-August, the Miami Marlins lost a power source that still hasn't been replaced.

But give it up to Christian Yelich for giving it his best shot.

After spending a month in Triple-A, Yasiel Puig is set to return to the Los Angeles Dodgers.

The Kansas City Royals (69-64) had won 11 straight games Danny Duffy (11-2, 3.01 ERA) started until he got hammered by the Boston Red Sox in his last outing Saturday.

Baseball fans who remember last winter's free-agent frenzy should hold on to those memories, for the upcoming crop of unsigned talent is shaping up to be one of the weakest in recent memory, especially when it comes to starting pitching.

That's why many, including Bleacher Report's Jacob Shafer, believe that the trade market could be the driving force behind much of the coming offseason's most notable, game-changing moves.

PEARL, Miss. — Hang tight, because this is a happy story. Really. You wouldn't think so, not when someone loses an eye. Not when the pool of blood on the ground looks like something out of CSI: New York. Not when an emergency medical helicopter swoops in and rushes the man off to a nearby hospital, a life hanging in the balance.

Five years later, sitting in his office, that man looks across his desk at a visitor. Watch this, he says. My prosthetic eye moves right along with my good eye.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout was uninjured after being involved in a car accident following Wednesday's 3-0 win over the Cincinnati Reds.

When San Francisco Giants left-hander Matt Moore left the field in the sixth inning of Wednesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks, the AT&T Park faithful stood and offered him a hearty cheer.
