Who wants to see grown men lay waste to a field of children with a volley of rubber balls?

Yep, it was dodgeball time in the city for Drew Butera and Dee Gordon. The two Los Angeles Dodgers were in New York on Monday when they took the business to a crowd of students from the Grace Church School.

The San Diego Padres placed pitcher Andrew Cashner on the 15-day disabled list Saturday with what the team is calling "right elbow soreness," per the Padres' official Twitter account.

Corey Brock of MLB.com provided more details:

As the Arizona Diamondbacks desperately search for answers amid a frustrating start, the team thinks it has found the man who can provide them. The Diamondbacks announced Hall of Fame manager Tony La Russa will join the team in a newly created Chief Baseball Officer position.

Zack Greinke has registered a 3-0 record and 1.72 ERA in five starts against the Arizona Diamondbacks since joining the Los Angeles Dodgers, which is important to consider when making your MLB picks Friday, as the two teams face off at Dodger Stadium.

A quarter of the season is in the books, and most Dodgers fans would agree that their team has played to about a quarter of its potential. 

One of the most popular picks to represent the National League in the World Series this season, Los Angeles began the week just one game over .500.

The San Francisco Giants are 16-5 this season when facing opponents that have a .500 or better record, which is important to consider when making your MLB picks Tuesday, as they prepare to take on the Atlanta Braves at AT&T Park.

If you asked me before the season whether I thought the Colorado Rockies offense could be the best in baseball, I wouldn't have ruled out the possibility.
