8-23-11: - DSL 2011 End of Season Wrap-Up - http://www.nyfuturestars.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=35808&sid=e8719b8eddffd9bc033d0ab708d8aff5  - Luis Rengal, 21, SP - Rengal is in his 3rd year with the organization, Rengal followed up a good 2010 with a good 2011. In 15 games (9 starts) he posted a 1.48 ERA, and only walked 1.8 per 9 innings


From 2005 to 2008, (Jose) Reyes averaged 157 games a year. During that time, he averaged 5.2 WAR per season and accumulated the thirteenth-highest combined WAR among all players. His wOBA was .347. Over the past three years, though, it has been a different story. Reyes looks to average around 100 games played per season. The decrease in days comes from four trips to the disabled list and dozens of games missed because of smaller injuries. Even though his .353 wOBA is higher than his four previous seasons, he has only averaged 2.9 WAR per season. - http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/index.php/how-much-will-reyess-injuries-cost-him  



Former New York Mets and Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Lenny Dykstra has been charged in Los Angeles for allegedly exposing himself to women he met on Craigslist. The city attorney's office said Thursday the 48-year-old former baseball star could face up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine for each indecent exposure count. Dykstra is accused of finding victims by placing online ads seeking personal assistants or housekeepers. He allegedly exposed himself to women who responded to the ads on several occasions between 2009 and 2011. - http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/6896893/lenny-dykstra-charged-indecent-exposure-los-angeles



Last night Yu Darvish struck out 15 Rakuten Golden Eagle’s hitters. His fastball topped out at 97 and he gave up only four hits and walked one, but the two runs he gave up were enough to give him a 2-1 loss, dropping his record to 15-4. One of those runs was unearned as a result of an error by the third baseman to allow the Eagles to score their second run. Darvish was outdueled by Kelvin Jimenez and a bevy of six relief pitchers - http://myworldofbaseball.com/wordpress/2011/08
