MIAMI -- The Miami Marlins and Cincinnati Reds are teams headed in opposite directions, but they do have at least one thing in common.Developments on Friday have both organizations looking for possible reinforcements.The Marlins (45-41) are looking for a fifth starter after announcing earlier in the day that they were demoting Justin Nicolino to the minors for the second time this season.Meanwhile, the Reds are likely looking for a temporary second baseman while veteran Brandon Phillips recovers from a hairline fracture on his left hand. He suffered the injury when he was hit by a pitch on Friday night in Miamis 3-1, series-opening win.Phillips could try to play with the injury, but more will be known on Saturday in the middle game of a series between the teams that concludes on Sunday.Nicolino was optioned to Triple-A New Orleans, a move that was no surprise because he was 0-5 with a 6.31 ERA in his past 10 major league starts.His spot in the rotation will come up again after the All-Star break, on July 19.Were looking for the best alternative, Marlins manager Don Mattingly said of the Nicolino spot in the rotation. Were not committed to Nico getting the next start. We dont have to make that decision right now. Were trying to find the right combination of guys to win games.Among the trade possibilities are Julio Teheran of the Atlanta Braves, but that would require Miami to send back significant minor league talent. The problem there is that the Marlins farm system is thin at the moment.Other starters who may be available include San Diegos Andrew Cashner and Tyson Ross, Philadelphia Jeremy Hellickson, Minnesotas Ervin Santana, Oaklands Rich Hill and Tampa Bays Drew Smyly.Oaklands Sonny Gray and Tampa Bays Matt Moore are other potential targets.Meanwhile, for the Reds, Jose Peraza stepped in and played second base after Phillips was hit by a Jose Fernandez changeup in the seventh inning.Peraza, a 22-year-old from Venezuela, will apparently get the first shot at second base if Phillips is unable to play with the injury. Peraza originally signed with the Atlanta Braves six years ago and made his major league debut with the Los Angeles Dodgers last season.He has battled hamstring injuries and was acquired by the Reds this past December. After starting the 2016 season at Triple-A Louisville, Peraza made his Reds debut on May 13.Now he may step into a larger-than-expected role.In Saturday game, Miami will start left-hander Adam Conley (5-5, 3.65 ERA). He is 1-0 with a 3.60 ERA against the Reds, making his only appearance against Cincinnati last season.The Reds will counter with left-hander John Lamb (1-5, 5.43 ERA). It will be his first appearance against the Marlins. The Reds have lost his past three starts and nine of his 12 for the year. Darren Woodson Womens Jersey . 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. Bob Lilly Jersey . -- Former San Diego Chargers safety Paul Oliver was found dead at his Atlanta-area home Tuesday night, and a medical examiner said Wednesday that the ex-player committed suicide. http://www.cowboysrookieproshop.com/Cowboys-Roger-Staubach-Jersey/ . R.J. Umberger scored twice to lead the Blue Jackets to a franchise-record for consecutive wins with a 5-3 victory Tuesday night over the Los Angeles Kings. Daryl Johnston Youth Jersey . -- When the Florida Panthers fell behind by two goals in the first period to the top team in the NHL, it appeared they were on their way to yet another loss. Randy White Youth Jersey . Walcott is available for Saturdays home match against Southampton as Arsenal looks to extend its two-point lead at the top of the Premier League. The Gunners are currently the second highest scorers in the league but Wenger insists Walcott will add something extra to his team. RIO DE JANEIRO -- The moment felt as historic as it gets in womens golf.Stacy Lewis won the Womens British Open at St. Andrews with a birdie-birdie finish, the last one set up by a classic links shot when she used a putter from 40 yards short of the green to get through the famous Valley of Sin.She was beaming as she posed with the trophy on the 18th green at the Home of Golf.And that was the last she saw of it.They take your picture, and then they take it from you, and you get a three-quarter sized replica in the mail, Lewis said Tuesday morning.She laughed at the memory from 2013, and there was a point behind it as Lewis prepared for what she considers the biggest opportunity of her career.Olympic medals are forever.After you win a medal, what do you do? You take it home with you, Lewis said. You dont ever have to give it back.One week of golfs most excellent Olympic adventure hasnt solved the question that has lingered over the sport even before it was allowed back into the Olympic family, at least through the Tokyo Games in 2020.Is it the pinnacle of sport? Is Olympic gold more valuable than Augusta green?That no longer seems relevant.Justin Rose was in the best position to provide an answer because he now has one of each -- the silver U.S. Open trophy from Merion in 2013, an Olympic gold medal from his victory Sunday at Olympic Golf Course that came down to the very last shot.There is no comparison, and there doesnt need to be.I think they should live in separate columns and different worlds, Rose said. Obviously, major championships right now have all the history. But I feel like this was an opportunity not to be missed. I feel like it resonated far wider than maybe my U.S. Open victory.Golf careers are not defined by the Olympics. Not yet. Probably not ever.It was not part of the Olympic program when Bobby Jones was feted with a ticker-tape parade in New York for his impregnable quadrilateral of winning the British Open, British Amateur, U.S. Open and U.S. Amateur in 1930. There was no talk of Olympic gold when Arnold Palmer cooked up the notion of the modern Grand Slam in 1960, or when Jack Nicklaus set the gold standard in golf with his 18 professional majors.ddddddddddddhats too much history to catch.Golf has been its own tiny village, and it was invited into a much larger world of sport in Rio, where all athletes are respected equally.If anything, golfers had to earn their place.Padraig Harrington couldnt wait to see table tennis when he arrived at the Olympics, and he was asked if he considered table tennis players to be athletes.Ive never questioned whether a table tennis player is an athlete. I believe they are. Fantastic athletes, he said. I would even put them before golf. You dont see too many overweight, smoking table tennis players.Rose didnt show up at Olympic Golf Course, work on his putting and chipping, post the lowest score over 72 holes and go home with the golden prize. He took in the full Olympic experience. He felt part of the British nation of athletes and wanted to do his part. He was among five British athletes to win gold on Sunday. His appeal went beyond golf, beyond sport, to an Olympic audience that reaches all corners of the globe.So many other Olympians dont have the Masters or the PGA Championship to look forward to next year. One mistake, one false start, one slip and the next chance at glory is four years.Thats made golfers appreciate what they have.We should never complain again, two-time Masters champion Bubba Watson said. Were always going to complain about three-putts, but we should never complain about what we have and what we dont have and all these things. Were so blessed. When you look at these other countries, and these athletes that train for years -- not just hours, years -- and they got 30 seconds or they got a minute or they got under ten seconds. And I get to show up at Augusta every year from now on because I won there.So its humbling, for sure, he said. This is the greatest thing Ive ever done.And he didnt even leave with a medal.Rose did, and his biggest dilemma is what to do with his Olympic gold.Maybe Ill get a little mannequin with a podium jacket for it, he said.He only knew he didnt have to give it back.
