TRAINERS ROOMPirates: C Chris Stewart underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left knee and is expected to be out six-to-e Antworten

Miguel Cotto, Puerto Ricos only four-division titleholder and a surefire future Hall of Famer, will return to the ring this fall.The date, location and opponent have not been determined, but Michael Yormark, president and chief of branding and strategy for Roc Nation, said on Tuesday that Cottos return is in the works.Although Yormark was speaking on a media teleconference with light heavyweight contender Andre Ward to promote Wards Aug. 6 HBO main event against Alexander Brand, Cottos name came up.We are hoping to have Miguel back in the ring before the end of the year, Yormark said. Were working on that now. Were hopeful to have some kind of an announcement over the next couple of weeks.Cotto, 35, has not fought since losing a decision and the middleweight world title to Canelo Alvarez in their Nov. 21 pay-per-view showdown.?There was discussion that Cotto, who likely will move down to the junior middleweight division where he once held a world title, would return in June, but he opted to sit out until the fall.Cotto (40-5, 33 KOs) has one fight remaining on his promotional contract with Roc Nation Sports.Juan Manuel Marquez, the Mexican star and former four-division titleholder, is one of the leading possibilities to face Cotto. He is also the most realistic opponent for Cotto if he wants to do a major pay-per-view fight. Names sell, and they are both big names -- with the additional carrot of the great Puerto Rico versus Mexico rivalry as a backdrop.The 42-year-old Marquez (56-7-1, 40 KOs), who has won world titles at featherweight, junior lightweight, lightweight and junior welterweight (and also owns a brutal knockout of Manny Pacquiao in a nontitle welterweight fight), has not fought since winning a unanimous decision against Mike Alvarado in a May 2014 welterweight title eliminator, mainly because of a knee injury.Were looking at a couple of opponents, but its too early to disclose who were talking to, Yormark said.However, according to a source with knowledge of the discussions, the Cotto and Marquez camps have been talking about a deal. The primary issue, however, is not money; its the contract weight. Cotto, according to the source, does not want to drop below 150 pounds; Marquez wants the fight at the welterweight limit of 147 pounds.Cotto has weighed 153? pounds for his past two fights and has not fought as a welterweight since he got knocked out by Pacquiao in the 12th round of their 2009 world title fight. Los Angeles Chargers Jerseys Cheap . There are some early surprises in the race for the Hart Trophy, but two of the contenders are the leagues biggest stars over the past decade. There are many more players in contention for the awards than just the three that Ive named, and a good or bad week can easily alter the landscape, but through the first 20 or so games of the NHL season, this is how the awards races look to me. New York Jets Jerseys Cheap . -- For the first time in two months, an opponent was standing up to Alabama. http://www.nflfansedge.com/cleveland-browns-jerseys-cheap/ . 10 Texas A&Ms offence dominated as usual against SMU. New York Giants Jerseys Cheap . -- If Henry Burris has his way, he will be the starting quarterback to lead the Hamilton Tiger-Cats back to the Grey Cup next year. Seattle Seahawks Jerseys Cheap . Hazard cut in from the left and scored with a swerving right-footed shot for ninth goal of the season, which proved to be enough for the victory despite Chelseas forwards again lacking a cutting edge up front. MILWAUKEE -- The Pittsburgh Pirates had timely hitting, but a key double play helped even more.Andrew McCutchen, Jody Mercer and Josh Bell each drove in two runs and the Pirates preserved their faint playoff hopes with a 6-3 win over the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday night.The Pirates won their fifth straight at Miller Park, and fifth of six overall to improve to .500 (75-75) for the first time since they were 69-69 on Sept. 8. Pittsburgh began the day five games behind San Francisco for the second NL wild card spot and St. Louis Cardinals and Miami Marlins in between the Pirates and Giants.McCutchens two-run double in the first staked rookie left-hander Steven Brault to an early lead. Then, Bells two-run single in the top of fifth chased starter Matt Garza (5-8).Staked to a 5-2 lead in the bottom of the fifth, Brault walked Jonathan Villar who stole second and moved to third on Orlando Arcias single to center. Pirates manager Clint Hurdle made a move to his bullpen and brought in Jared Hughes (1-1) to face Chris Carter.It is first and third with nobody out in the fifth, Hurdle said. Where we are in the season right now, I felt (Brault) gave us (enough.) It is a sticky situation.Carter lined Hughes first pitch at third baseman Jung Ho Kang, who fielded the ball cleanly and turned it into a double play that deflated the rally. Hughes struck out Domingo Santana to end the threat.We ended up scoring a run, but thats two outs right there on one pitch, Carter said. He ended up (retiring) the next guy. That kind of changed the momentum right there.Brewers manager Craig Counsell was even more emphatic.That was a big play, he said. We had guys on first and second and got to their bullpen. Chris hit a ball hard, and he made a nice play. That certainly was the play of the game, for sure.The Brewers went quietly the rest of the way against the Pirates bullpen.You want guys who can come in and have some experience and take care of it from there, Hurdle said.And thats exactly what happened.Wade LeBlanc pitched the sixth which ended on another double play. Juan Nicasio set the side down in order in the seventh. Antonio Bastardo struck out two in the eighth and Tony Watson tossed a perfect ninth for his 14th save in 17 chances.Brault was making his seventh career start and had already lost twice to the Brewers. He allowed Santanas run-scoring double in the third and Martin Maldonados home run in the fourth. Brault scattered five hits, struck out four, walked two and was three outs from his first major-league win.Even though I couldnt go the five and get the win, I kept my team in it, Brault said.dddddddddddd We got the win. We are making a playoff push, that is all that really matters right now.Mercer produced run-scoring singles in the fourth and sixth.Adam Frazier went 3 for 4, scored twice and extended his streak of reaching base safely to 10 straight games for the Pirates.Garza allowed five runs and eight hits over four innings. He walked two and struck out two while slipping to 1/3 in four starts against the Pirates this seasonThe Brewers had won 11 of 17 since the Pirates four-game sweep in Milwaukee at the end of August, with home and away series victories over the NL Central Champion Chicago Cubs.NICASIO SETS A FRANCHISE RECORDRHP Juan Nicasio has recorded at least one strikeout in 30 straight appearances, a single-season club record for a Pirates relief pitcher. According to Elias, its the longest such streak in the majors this season and ties Cody Allens record with Cleveland in 2015.FEELING RIGHT AT HOMEMcCutchens two-run double in the first extended his hitting streak to eight games and gave him 48 RBI in 62 career games at Miller Park.GARZA RUNSOpponents have roughed up Garza for 26 runs (16 earned) in his last seven starts. He is 1-4 with a 4.00 ERA over that stretch.NEW BREWERS DADSLF Ryan Braun and C Manny Pina were out of the lineup in order to be with their wives and the newest member of his respective family. Brauns wife, Larisa, gave birth to a son, Greyson Joseph. Pinas wife, Leny, gave birth to a daughter, Jimena. However, Pina pinch hit in the ninth and flied out to end the game. Both players were expected back before the weekend.TRAINERS ROOMPirates: C Chris Stewart underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left knee and is expected to be out six-to-eight weeks.
