ROSENTHAL & MOROSI: BELTRAN SWEEPSTAKES NEARING A CLOSE – FOX Sports reporter and FOXSports.com senior MLB columnist Ken Rosenthal and FOXSports.com writer Jon Paul Morosi report that Carlos Beltran’s departure from the Mets is imminent. “The Giants have reached a tentative agreement to acquire outfielder Carlos Beltran from the New York Mets, major-league sources told FOXSports.com on Wednesday. Pending approval from Beltran and the commissioner’s office, the switch-hitting All-Star will go to San Francisco for top pitching prospect Zach Wheeler. The Mets will send some cash to the Giants in the deal.”

WHO’S GONNA PULL OFF THE BIGGEST DEAL? – The MLB trade deadline is rapidly approaching, begging the question ‘which GM will pull off the biggest deal?’  MLB on FOX reporter and FOXSports.com senior MLB columnist Ken Rosenthal says keep an eye on the Phillies’ Ruben Amaro Jr.  “If there’s one thing we’ve learned about Amaro, it’s that he’s fearless,” said Rosenthal. “Fearlessness, in an increasingly cautious trading environment, is the new market inefficiency.  Phillies owner David Montgomery seemingly has removed Amaro’s one restriction — the luxury-tax threshold — telling the Philadelphia Inquirer, ‘We will do whatever it takes.’”  So at this point, it’s probably just a matter of which player Amaro wants most.  It could be the Astros’ Hunter Pence. It could be the White Sox’s Carlos Quentin, one of the Padres’ relievers, or another player entirely. Rest assured, it will be someone, maybe even two someones.”

Braves/Reds; Padres/Phillies; Tigers/Twins Face-Off Saturday @ 4:00 PM ET on FOX

Morosi: Reds Need To Acquire Pitching To Make NL Run

MLB ACTION HEATS UP FOX SPORTS – The weather is hot across the nation and the action is even hotter as FOX Sports presents three exciting matchups on Saturday, July 23 (4:00 PM ET). Sporting the two best records in the NL, the NL East-leading Phillies and 2^nd-place Braves spearhead FOX’s coverage. In Cincinnati, Derek Lowe looks to slow down a Reds lineup that boasts the power-hitting combo of Jay Bruce and Joey Votto. The Phillies pitching has lived up to their preseason hype leading them to the best record in baseball. One of their lesser-known arms, Kyle Kendrick, is scheduled to take the hill as the Phillies host the Padres. The Tigers have caught and passed the Indians in the AL Central. Jim Leyland’s men look to make that a permanent change as they travel to Minneapolis to take on the Twins.

The MLB on FOX pregame originates live from Citizens Bank Ballpark in Philadelphia, PA with host Chris Rose.  Once game action begins, Rose joins Kenny Albert and Eric Karros.

ROSENTHAL: SAVE THE RAYS FROM THEIR HOME-FIELD ‘ADVANTAGE’ – FOX Sports reporter and FOXSports.com senior MLB columnist Ken Rosenthal points out that the Tampa Bay Rays are tired of playing in their home stadium, Tropicana Field. Rosenthal agrees. “Here they are, arguably the best-run franchise in the sport, and they’ve got no chance of sustaining success in their freak show of a ballpark – a ballpark built with the wrong kind of roof in the wrong part of the region,” writes Rosenthal. “Quite understandably, it’s driving club officials nuts and now, with the team on the verge of falling out of contention, the Rays’ frustration is pouring out.”

JON PAUL MOROSI: REDS SHOULD BUY – With the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline fast approaching, FOXSports.com writer Jon Paul Morosi says the Cincinnati Reds need to acquire additional pitching talent if they seek to keep their playoffs hopes alive.  After a disappointing first half, the defending NL Central champs stumbled into the All-Star break with a 45-47 record, due largely to an inconsistent rotation. However, Cincinnati has since surged out of the break, taking two out of three from its division rival, the St. Louis Cardinals. The two teams, along with the Brewers and Pirates, are part of a tight four-team race to grab hold of first-place in the topsy-turvy NL Central.  Morosi says it is likely that the Reds will need a bullpen upgrade from the outside, such as Rockies starter Ubaldo Jimenez, if they want to play as true contenders.

MLB on FOX analysts Thom Brennaman and Mitch Williams call the action while MLB on FOX’s Ken Rosenthal reports from the field.

CAN POINTS LEADER CHAD REED RECOVER FROM HORRIFIC CRASH ON LUCAS OIL AMA PRO MOTOCROSS CHAMPIONSHIPS? – Overall points leader Chad Reed  (Kurri Kurri, Australia) suffered a horrific crash (http://bit.ly/mRakac) during last week’s Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Championship race in Millville, MN. His crash let his main competitors, Ryan Dungey (Belle Plaine, MN) and Ryan Villopoto (Poulsbo, WA) close the gap in the overall standings (Villopoto is now six points behind, Dungey is seven points behind). The question is will he be able to recover in time for this week’s race at Washougal, WA - the Peterson CAT Washougal National – airing live on FUEL TV on Saturday, July 23 (4:00PM ET) and maintain his lead? With five races to go in the series, it’s becoming a close three-way battle to the end.

ROSENTHAL: K-ROD, YOU JUST GOT PLAYED – FOX Sports reporter and FOXSports.com senior MLB columnist Ken Rosenthal points out that shortly after hiring Scott Boras as his new agent, Francisco Rodriguez got something he didn’t want – a job as a setup man. “For once, Boras looks like he was out-maneuvered, even though he will benefit financially if K-Rod does not finish 21 more games and vest his $17.5 million option, becoming a free agent instead,” writes Rosenthal. “In reality, Rodriguez has no choice but to be a good teammate with the Brewers, much as it might wound his ego. He’s destined to hit the open market this offseason, and throwing a hissy fit will only diminish his value. In the end, the Mets got what they wanted, escaping K-Rod’s onerous option. The Brewers got what they wanted, adding another quality reliever to their late-inning mix. The only one who didn’t get what he wanted was K-Rod, the “historic closer” who became a setup man less than 48 hours after his new agent vowed that such a thing would not occur. You’re Francisco Rodriguez, and you just got played.”

FOX SOCCER’S ‘SOCCER NIGHT IN AMERICA’ HEADS TO SEATTLE FOR SOUNDERS VS. RAPIDS – FOX Soccer’s “Soccer Night In America” brings together two of the Western Conference’s best to the Pacific Northwest Saturday afternoon, when the Seattle Sounders and their frenzied fan base welcome MLS Cup holder Colorado Rapids to CenturyLink Field with kickoff on Saturday, July 16 beginning at 4:00 PM ET/1:00 PM PT. Not only do the Sounders bring in an eight-game unbeaten streak, but the second-best record in Major League Soccer (9-4-8/35 points), four points adrift of the LA Galaxy in the West. The Rapids are on a three-game unbeaten streak, all in a six-day span. Much of that can be credited to forward Conor Casey, who has scored six goals in his last seven games and carried the inconsistent Rapids back from mediocrity. Mark Rogondino has the play-by-play, with former MLS All-Star Kyle Martino handling analysis and Keith Bleyer contributing sideline reports.


Former U.S. National Team and MLS players Eric Wynalda and Christopher Sullivan team up for the pregame, halftime and postgame coverage, beginning at 3:30 PM ET/12:30 PM PT.

NEW MOTORCYCLE SPONSOR MIGHT BE FACTOR WITH NATE ADAMS AT RED BULL X-FIGHTERS SPAIN - According to Andy Bell, FUEL TV Announcer for the Red Bull X-Fighters Freestyle Motocross Series, tour leader Nate Adams recently switched to riding a 450cc Honda, and it might be affecting his riding. “Although he won last contest, Nate didn’t put down a perfect run, and was going long on a lot of the jumps,” says Bell. “The new bike is more powerful than what he used to ride and he’s not used to it yet.” Having won the last contest, the American is still the favorite going into this weekend’s competition in Spain that airs on FUEL TV Sunday, July 17 (8:00PM ET).

MOROSI: IS PRESSURE OF 3K GETTING TO JETER? – FOXSports.com writer Jon Paul Morosi wonders if the pressure of reaching the 3,000-hit mark is getting to Yankees Captain Derek Jeter. “On the night he climbed within four hits of 3,000, Derek Jeter told us what was on his mind. He did it on his terms, because he is too smart to have done so otherwise,” writes Morosi. “He didn’t sound angry. He didn’t take it too far. He didn’t name names but by Jeter’s understated standards, it was stunning. The revealing question came from a reporter who asked, simply, whether Jeter is enjoying all of this. There was no need to explain what this meant. Jeter knew. This is the hype, the history, the attention, the reporters, the cameras — partially because of the coming milestone, but mostly because of who he is.”
