Can it get any worse for Alex Rodriguez these days?

Georgia high school outfielder Austin Meadows is many things. 

He's a 6'3", 200-pound prospect who has a great chance to be taken inside the top five of the 2013 MLB first-year player draft on Thursday, and many scouting reports have him listed as a potential four- or five-tool athlete roaming the outfield for a big-league club. 

Major League Baseball is reportedly preparing to take an unprecedented stand against performance-enhancing drugs.

It's almost fitting that this fan chose to wear yellow to the Angels game. BuzzFeed Sports found a video showing one Angels fan who had to suffer far more than an eventual loss by her favorite baseball team.

We're still probably about six to eight weeks away from when the majority of in-season trades will go down. Aside from a few useful players who may have become expendable for some reason or another—the Atlanta Braves traded Juan Francisco to the Brewers on Monday after he was "DFA'd" a few days ago—don't expect much trade activity in the month of June. 

Hanley Ramirez will return to the lineup for the Los Angeles Dodgers today after sustaining a hamstring injury in early May, the team announced via Twitter:

It is about that time of the Major League Baseball season.

Despite having played only a little over a third of their season, the contenders are starting to separate themselves from the pretenders. And with that separation comes speculation of whether certain teams will be buyers or sellers come the MLB trade deadline at the end of July.
