That's me » aling process, the healing of the bones and the swelling

FIVE QUICK HOOPS THOUGHTS: 1. Rich Hill Jersey . FLIP SAUNDERS (Timberwolves): Im not the least bit surprised that he appointed himself as head coach after his search concluded. The president had the most successful run of any coach in franchise history and is a good fit at this stage. The fact that hes got lots of power in the organization will help him in the locker room because players will know that the buck stops with him. That always helps a coach. 2. NBA FINALS FORMAT: I love the fact that the NBA has gone with the 2-2-1-1-1 traditional format. Im a huge believer that the finalist that had the better regular season deserves to be able to host that critical Game 5. This was a smart move to get in line with the demands of the fans and most coaches and executives. 3. NBA REFEREES: You can say what you want about officials and I have a tendency to mildly voice my opinion from time to time (haha) about them, but on the whole they do a terrific job and the playoffs are really difficult to call. I really like what the league has done this year with trying to keep officiating crews together during the Pplayoffs. Im a fan of consistency and, the more a crew works together, the more cohesive they become. It helps a great deal and it not only makes sense, but its smart. 4. ABC ANNOUNCERS: I absolutely love listening to Mike Breen, Jeff Van Gundy, Mark Jackson and Doris Burke. Insightful, prepared, enthusiastic and entertaining - a really enjoyable listen that enhances the experience of watching the game and helps promote the sport. Just like the Spurs and Heat on the floor, this is the best game broadcast team in hoops. Theres a nice balance of opinion and strategy brought each telecast. For me, a joy to listen to. 5. RASHARD LEWIS (Heat): Lewis dropped 14 points in Game #2 and its nice having veteran experience on the floor. His perimeter shot-making ability is critical and he gives them better size to deal with the Spurs penetration and post-ups in the paint. Hes got a ton of big game experience and it showed in a huge win for Miami. LeBron was brilliant, yet you must have unsung heroes to help complement the stars. This is a guy on many nights this season was a DNP or barely played. Lewis is a true pro whos ready when called upon. Julio Urias Jersey . -- The Los Angeles Dodgers signed Cuban shortstop Erisbel Arruebarrena to a $25 million, five-year contract Saturday. Hyun-Jin Ryu Jersey .7 million, one-year contract.The deal, announced Friday, includes a $50,000 performance bonus if the left-hander appears in 60 games. http://www.dodgersteamproshop.com/Dodgers-Manny-Machado-Kids-Jersey/ . -- The Seattle Seahawks and wide receiver Sidney Rice have agreed to terms on a deal.NEW YORK -- Injured Miami Marlins slugger Giancarlo Stanton wont play again in the majors this season because of last weeks beaning. Stanton was hit in the face by a fastball from Milwaukees Mike Fiers last Thursday. Stanton sustained facial fractures, dental damages, cuts that required stitches and two black eyes. Marlins president of baseball operations Mike Hill said Stanton also had concussion symptoms but has been given neurological clearance. "Its the whole healing process, the healing of the bones and the swelling," Marlins manager Mike Redmond said before Wednesdays game against the New York Mets. "Theres just not enough time for it to properly heal, and for him to get medically cleared to be able to play." Miami opens a seven-game homestand Thursday, then closes the season at Washington from Sept. 26-28. "As much as we all would have loved to have him back, we knew that it just ran out of schedule," Hill said. Stanton had said he hoped to play again this year and on Tuesday posted a photograph that showed a marked improvement from last week. Hill said dental procedures are "the bulk of the work that is remaining." "He told me he can open his mouth 60 per cent now," Hill said. "The slices in the food that he has to cut, theyre in halves now. They were in quarters a few days ago." The 24-year-old is a top candidate for thee NL MVP award. Kirk Gibson Jersey. His 37 home runs still are the most in the NL, and he was leading the majors with 105 RBIs when he was hurt. Hill said Stanton might be able to get some at-bats in at the instructional league in Florida, which runs through the first week of October. Stanton could wear a protective flap on his helmet, similar to the one Atlantas Jason Heyward has used since he was hit in the face by a pitch from the New York Mets Jonathon Niese on Aug. 21 last year. "Thats probably for down the road," Redmond said. "I would definitely say he would probably try that." Stanton is earning $10.35 million this year and is eligible for free agency after the 2016 season. "Were hopeful that the season will end, hell be named MVP of the league, and well get back into our off-season preparation and, hopefully, our long-term discussion with him," Hill said. Fiers was fined by Major League Baseball for actions that contributed to benches clearing. Marlins pitcher Anthony Desclafani hit Carlos Gomez with a pitch in the following inning and was suspended for three games and fined by MLB. The players association appealed the suspension, and Hill said a hearing is scheduled for Friday. "Hopefully theyll get the video and see that he wasnt trying to hit anybody," Hill said. "Gomez was hanging out over the plate a little bit." Wholesale USA Soccer Jerseys discount uswnt jersey Wholesale AC Milan Jerseys Wholesale Arsenal Jerseys Wholesale A.S.
