There appears to be little interest in catcher A.J. Pierzynski and shortstop

One thing we didnt learn last weekend: 2016 is the Year of the Underdog.That much we already knew. There has never been this kind of turnover in UFC title fight history -- considering not only the frequency of belts switching hands, but the manner in which they are doing so.Stipe Miocic: First round. Eddie Alvarez: First round. Amanda Nunes: First round. Michael Bisping: First round. And now added to the list, Tyron Woodley: First round.Anything can happen in MMA and all that jazz, but this has gotten out of control.But again, we already knew that going into UFC 201. Heres what we didnt know, and thus What We Learned, over the weekend in Atlanta.Its good to be a DiazI like to picture Nick Diaz on a boat off the coasts of Mexico last Saturday, toasting shots with brother Nate Diaz, UFC 201 welterweight championship softly playing in the background -- no one giving it any thought.The Diaz brothers have reached, at least for the time being, what actually might be the pinnacle of MMA. That is, big fights come to them. Theyre not chasing anything. Neither holds a belt, but the champions who do are calling them out.Shortly after Woodley demolished Robbie Lawler at UFC 201, he was interviewed on live television by Stephen Thompson, the next obvious No. 1 contender. A very polite, very deserving Thompson essentially asked Woodley if he was ready to dance with him next. Woodley stared coldly into the camera and shut poor Thompson down.Woodley wants a money fight against Nick Diaz or former champ Georges St-Pierre. Thompson is nowhere on his radar. And as crazy as it sounds, Diaz jumping the welterweight line doesnt sound that far-fetched.Heck, hes done it before. He fought St-Pierre for the title in 2013, despite coming off a loss. Hes officially 0-2 in hist last two fights, with one no-contest thanks to a failed drug test by Anderson Silva last year. He just served an 18-month suspension for his own failed drug test (marijuana). His only win in the UFC within the last nine years is a decision against a hopelessly undersized B.J. Penn five years ago.Thompson, meanwhile, is on a seven-fight win streak. This year alone, hes knocked out Johny Hendricks in the first round and prevailed over Rory MacDonald in a five-round fight.Diaz has no business fighting for a title before Thompson, but if thats the route the UFC goes, it wont be that surprising. Nate, meanwhile, is currently the only man Conor McGregor is willing to fight -- and lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez is also on-record wanting a fight against him.Regardless of how you feel about it, theres no doubt: Diaz business is booming.Joanna Jedrzejczyk gonna hold that strawweight title for a minuteNo one is safe. We must constantly remind ourselves of this. But if there is a fine print to this rule, it most certainly reads, Oh, wait, except for Jedrzejczyk.Rose Namajunas was being touted as one final potential hiccup to Jedrzejczyks title reign. Even before her loss to Karolina Kowalkiewicz on Saturday, there was reason to believe Namajunas wasnt quite ready. Now, theres no doubt thats the case.Kowalkiewicz (10-0) is undefeated, tough and in good shape. She accused Jedrzejczyk of being scared of her at the UFC 201 post-fight press conference, a claim that seems ... unconvincing. An all-Poland title fight sounds like a good time, especially if the UFC can land it in the countrys capital of Warsaw. But even in a time when champions are falling like flies, Id set the odds of Jedrzejczyk being one of them close to zero. Cheap Nike SB . Those lessons were more than enough to overwhelm the Utah Jazz. Lou Williams scored 25 points and the Hawks continued their offensive upswing as they rolled to an easy 118-85 victory over the Jazz on Friday night, winning their third straight and for the fourth time in five games.

ATLANTA -- With the non-waiver trade deadline only a day away, Sunday may be the final game for the rosters as currently constructed for the Philadelphia Phillies and Atlanta Braves.Both teams are considered sellers on the trade market and may be willing to listen to all reasonable offers, particularly if they bring prospects in return.They always ask you, Will you trade this guy? And I ask them, For who? Philadelphia manager Pete Mackanin said.The teams conclude their four-game series at Turner Field. The Phillies start right-hander Jerad Eickhoff (6-12, 3.83 ERA) against Atlantas Joel De La Cruz (0-3, 4.66).Atlanta general manager John Coppolella said he would not trade first baseman Freddie Freeman or pitcher Julio Teheran. Otherwise, anyone else is considered fair game.The Braves completed a trade Saturday, sending outfielder Hector Olivera to San Diego for outfielder and former NL MVP Matt Kemp, a right-handed hitter with 23 home runs.Weve been trying to find right-handed power from the start, Coppolella said. Hes somebody who can help us. We need to get back to winning games here. We think this guy can hit right behind Freddie Freeman, give us some power that we sorely lack and that hell be a good help to our team on the field and off the field.Atlanta has already moved some of its most tradable players. Last week, the Braves sent pitchers Lucas Harrell and Dario Alvarez to Texas in exchange for slugging infield prospect Travis Demeritte. In June, the club traded utility man Kelly Johnson to the Mets.Thhe Braves may also be able to find a market from a contending team for right fielder Nick Markakis, infielder Gordon Beckham or right-handed reliever Jim Johnson.dddddddddddd There appears to be little interest in catcher A.J. Pierzynski and shortstop Erick Aybar.The Phillies had not yet pulled the trigger on a deal, but they had showcased a pair of pitchers they might be willing to trade in this series. Vince Velasquez pitched Friday and Jeremy Hellickson worked Saturday. It is likely the Phillies would demand three or four highly valued young players in return.Texas is said to be particularly interested in Velasquez and had scouts on hand at Turner Field to watch him pitch Friday.Our whole goal is to get young pitchers because theyre the most expensive commodity and if you can develop young pitchers like (Velasquez and Hellickson) and have four or five or those guys youre ahead of the game, Mackanin said. But at the same time, Ill listen to any offers if you get three guys for him that are really good-looking prospects because pitching is such a commodity. Youve got to consider it.There were even rumors that Hellickson would be traded before Saturdays start.Who knows whats going to happen, Mackanin said. Its out of my control. (Hellickson) is a free agent at the end of the year. Hes a professional and he knows hes got to pitch well for the rest of the year no matter where hes at. ' ' '
