Other NL west news: Padres #2 Adam Eaton is going to miss at least a couple starts joining Mark Loretta on the shelf for the Pads.

This division is wide open right now. Hopefully whoever's running things in the FO is racking up huge phone bills trying to help this squad because as Ken Rosenthal said last night, whoever does the best in midseason player acquisitions between us, Pads, and Dodgers will likely win the division.

acording to Ken Rosenthal Gagne will miss the rest of the season

The team that wins this division won't even win 90 games.

This may turn out to be the worst division top to bottom in the history of baseball.

Is it me or is the NL West having a bit of trouble with the AL Central?

The only reason the NL west wins any games at all is that they have to play each other so many times.

How many suspected steroid users have gone on the DL or slumped horribly this year?

Cleveland really did a number on the NL West.

The All-Star reliever has a second-degree sprain of his ulnar collateral ligament and was recently placed on the 15-day disabled list.

Gagne, who owns the major league record of 84 consecutive saves, landed on the disabled list for the first time in his seven-year major league career on April 1 when he hurt his elbow, possibly while compensating for a knee injury sustained during spring training. It was the same elbow that underwent ligament replacement surgery in 1997.

He returned to action May 14 but aggravated the injury while pitching against Minnesota on June 12.

Gagne was 1-0 with eight saves and a 2.70 ERA in 13 1/3 innings since his return from the disabled list. Dating to last Aug. 28, he has converted 18 consecutive save opportunities.

Gagne won the NL Cy Young Award in 2003 with a club-record 55 saves and a 1.20 ERA. He agreed to a $19 million, two-year contract in the offseason after recording 152 saves and averaging 122 strikeouts during his first three seasons as a closer.

How many suspected steroid users have gone on the DL or slumped horribly this year?

Many of them. Bonds, Gagne to name a few.
