Ultra Boost . -- The Baltimore Ravens and wide receiver Jacoby Jones have
agreed on a four-year contract Wednesday. Finanicial terms of the deal were not
immediately known. Jones drew interest from other teams as a free agent and met
with the New York Giants Wednesday. The 29-year old Jones was selected to the
Pro Bowl as a return man in 2012 and started 12 games for Baltimore at wide
receiver in 2013. He signed with the Ravens in 2012 after spending the first
five seasons of his career with the Houston Texans.

http://www.relo2md.com/adidas-original-pas-cher/adidas-zx-850.html . Some teams got significantly better, some teams divested themselves of talent
and some teams had quiet afternoons, keeping the status quo.I was thinking about
Melky Cabrera the other day and his odds of being named Comeback Player of the
Year. After all, he was a disaster in his first season with the Jays in 2013. It
was only after the fact we learned he needed surgery to have a tumour removed
from his back, which seriously impeded his abilities last season to be the
player he had been in San Francisco and Kansas City. Right now Melky is hitting
.298 with 11 homers and 37 runs batted, and is playing better defence in left
field than at any point last year. Hes even beginning to put the PED suspension
in the review mirror. Yes, he would be a worthy pick for American League
Comeback Player of the year. This really is a fascinating award. Its often said
it is one no player really wants to win because it means at some point your
career has gone off the rails or youve suffered a serious, possibly
career-threatening injury. Only one Blue Jays player has even won the award. On
May 29 of 2008, second baseman Aaron Hill suffered a concussion when he collided
with teammate David Eckstein. Hill missed the remainder of the season. He came
back though with a vengence in 2009, batting .286 and 37 doubles, 36 homers and
108 runs batted in. He went to the All Star Game in St. Louis in July, was named
Blue Jays Player of the Year, and ultimately, American League Comeback Player of
the year. Its interesting that there are actually three versions of this award.
The original and the one with the most historic cache was established by the
Sporting News in 1965. The Players Association created its version in 1992
followed finally by Major League Baseball in 2005. Two players won it after
coming back from heart attacks, Tony Conigliaro of the Red Sox in 1969 and
Scarboroughs own John Hiller - the Tigers starter turned closer. In addition to
Hiller another Canadian "Hall of Famer" Fergy Jenkins won the award in 1974 with
Texas. In 1976, the National League honours went to Tommy John, naturally for
the year he had after undergoing the landmark elbow reconstruction surgery that
still bears his name. In the American League, three men have won the award twice
- Norm Cash of the Tigers, "Boog" Powell of the Orioles and Royals right hander
Bret Saberhagen. In the National League, the club is even more exclusive. Former
Expos first baseman Andres "The Big Cat" Galaragga won in Colorado in 1993 and
Atlanta in 2000, while former Blue Jays right hander Chris Carpenter won twice
with St. Louis in 2004 and again in 2009. Former pitcher and current broadcaster
Rick Sutcliffe stands alone as the only player to win in both leaguees.

Boost. He did it in 1987 with the Cubs and 1992 with Baltimore. Talk about
impressive runs, from 1977 through 1979, future Hall of Famers won in the
National League three years running, with Willie McCovey, Willie Stargell and
Lou Brock so honoured. But the ultimate comeback story is unfolding this season
in Cincinnati. Heck this guys entire career has been one gigantic comeback
story. Alfredo Simon is a 33 year old right-hander out of the Dominican
Republic. He was signed back in 1999 by the Phillies as an amateur free agent.
But in those days he went by the name of Carlos Cabrera. He hid his true
identity so he could conceal his true age. The Phillies thought he was younger
and didnt find out the truth until 2004. Simon has bounced around a lot and
didnt actually crack the Majors until 2008 with Baltimore. He had brief snatches
of success with the 0s saving 17 games in 2010 and starting 16 in 2011, but in
2012 he was claimed on waivers by the Reds off the Orioles. Before this season,
Alfredo Simon had a career record in six years of (17-18) with 19 saves. He had
been with six organizations, three of them twice. Yet the other night at 33 he
become the National Leagues first 10-game winner this season. In fact he is
(10-3) with a 3.05 ERA and he is convinced he can pitch 200 innings this season
even though his previous high was 115 2-3 with Baltimore in 2011. A truly
amazing story. All of which brings us to Ricky Romero, whos been slogging it out
in Triple-A Buffalo trying to find the old Ricky who used to be the ace of the
Blue Jays staff three years ago. We learned Thursday, that Ricky had to undergo
surgery on his left knee and is done for the rest of this season. Ricky will be
29 years old next season and in the final guaranteed year of his contract. The
Jays will be paying him another $7.5 million dollars. Maybe the knee surgery
will make a difference and Ricky can author the kind of comeback story that
Alfredo Simon has. One more thing on Simon. He had to battle back from Tommy
John surgery as well after getting injured in just his second start for the
Orioles in 2009.. This weekend marks a special anniversary at Rogers Centre.
Saturday it will be 14 years since the only no-hitter in the history of the
facility was pitched there. Oaklands Dave Stewart accomplishing the feat on June
21, 1990. Ironically later that same night, Fernando Valenzuela no-hit St.
Louis. It was the only time in Major League history two no-nos have been thrown
on the same day. Three years later Stewart won a World Series with the Jays and
later became their assistant General Manager.
