The Nationals are in the process of converting Anthony Rendon, their top prospect, into a second baseman ... and they're doing it in the majors!

The Oakland A's weren't likely to win in the same way as they did in 2012, and so far they haven't been. So why are they still good?

Clayton Kershaw threw 132 pitches in a game last month, and Anibal Sanchez and Yu Darvish have each thrown 130 pitches in a game this season. But the 130-pitch outing largely died out in 2001, and it's hard to figure out exactly why.

Monday night, Yasiel Puig made his major-league debut and collected a couple of base hits. But it's his game-ending throw from right field that will forever be remembered.
