The Adelaide Crows have dismissed reports theyre pursuing Brisbane captain Tom Rockliff as his manager says the star midfielder will remain at the Lions.The Crows reject reports theyre pitching to lure Rockliff to Adelaide as his manager Tom Petroro says the Lions skipper wont change clubs.I wouldnt have thought so, Petroro told SEN radio on Friday when asked whether Rockliff was moving.Rockliff is contracted by Brisbane for another 18 months and Petroro said talks over a contract extension would soon resume.We started those at the start of the year. We parked them until the end of footy season, he said.I assume well pick them up over the coming weeks.Asked if he had spoken to the Crows about Rockliff, Petroro said: No, not at this stage.The reports caught the Crows unaware on Friday with the club privately dismissing them as inaccurate.But Adelaide assistant coach David Teague believed the South Australian outfit was becoming an attractive destination for any player.I just heard that one, Teague said on Friday about Rockliff.That is probably not something that Im really in charge of or focused on heavily but I do understand players from other clubs may want to come to us at the moment.We are playing exciting football, we are playing a real team brand of football so if players enjoy playing amongst a team, I think Adelaide would be a destination they would be interested in.The good clubs probably dont spend big - people want to come to their organisation because of the culture they have built.Right now, Adelaide is in a good place, were a real team-first culture ... if you want to be part of that, you probably are going to come on those terms, youre not going to ask for a big pay cheque.

After a lengthy wait, persistent rain finally forced the postponement of the Nationals game against the Miami Marlins on Saturday night. The teams, and a few thousand fans, waited nearly four hours from the 7:05 scheduled start time before an announcement was made shortly before 11 p. NEW YORK -- The last time the New York Yankees were four games over .500, they could not sustain it and altered their roster.Now they have a more youthful roster and are in better position in the standings than over two weeks ago.The Yankees can get their fifth straight win on Sunday when they conclude a three-game series against the Tampa Bay Rays at Yankee Stadium.Before five home runs in Saturdays 8-4 victory, the only other time the Yankees were four over this season was July 26, when they moved to 52-48 following a 6-3 win at Houston.That win came a day after Aroldis Chapman was traded to the Chicago Cubs for three prospects and Adam Warren, and what followed were four straight losses which led to the Yankees dealing Andrew Miller, Carlos Beltran and Ivan Nova for seven more prospects.After getting to four over the first time, the Yankees were 6 1/2 games out of first place and four games out in the wild card race.Since the non-waiver trade deadline, Gary Sanchez has been added along with Tyler Austin and Aaron Judge, and the Yankees have won eight of their last 12 games to get slightly closer in the wild card race.Ive seen our team be much looser, general manager Brian Cashman said Saturday. It seems to be more exciting. Were obviously still in this thing, which is tremendous.Since July 26, eight players who were on the active roster are no longer with the team. Other than the traded players, the most notable is Alex Rodriguez, who was officially released on Saturday after his emotional final game for the Yankees on Friday.Among the newcomers are Austin and Judge, who became the first set of teammates to homer in their first career at-bats during the second inning Saturday.Austin started at first base and homered on the fifth pitch he saw, while Judge was the starting right fielder and homered on the fourth pitch he saw.You cant draw it up any better when you call up two young players, Yankees manager Joe Girardi said.The Rays have lost eight of 12 games since sweeping the Yankees two weekends ago in Tampa Bay.Brad Miller homered twice for the Rays and is batting .350 (21-for-60) with seven home runs and 15 RBBI in his last 16 games since July 27.ddddddddddddEvan Longoria also had two hits but the rest of the Rays had four hits and struck out nine times on Saturday.Thats kind of what it is, Rays manager Kevin Cash said. It seems like we are running out of steam a little bit towards the back half of our lineup.Another key to the Yankee attempts to get younger will be on the mound when Luis Severino takes the mound Sunday. A year ago, Severino was two starts into a promising two-month debut but this season has been a struggle on the major league level.Severino was initially demoted Wednesday after struggling through a start Tuesday in Boston, but when Nathan Eovaldi went on the disabled list, the Yankees brought him back to start.This season is a drastic contrast in numbers for Severino on the major and minor league levels as a starting pitcher. He is 0-7 with a 7.78 ERA in eight starts for the Yankees and with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes Barre, he is 7-1 with a 3.25 ERA in 10 starts.Jake Odorrizi has been the ALs best starter since the All-Star break in terms of ERA and looks to continue it Sunday. Before the All-Star break, he was 3-5 with a 4.47 ERA in 19 starts, but in his last five starts he is 3-0 with a 1.13 ERA.Odorizzi has allowed four earned runs in 32 innings since the break and two were Monday in Toronto when he allowed solo home runs to Jose Bautista and Edwin Encarnacion in the first inning during a no-decision.Odorizzi has his worst start since the break as he allowed four runs (two earned) and eight hits in 5 1/3 innings during Tampa Bays 7-5 loss.The right-hander is 4-5 with a 4.23 ERA in 11 career appearances against the Yankees. He is 1-1 with a 1.32 ERA in two starts against New York this season.Odorizzi lost a no-hitter when Starlin Castro hit a two-run home run in the seventh inning May 29 and two months later he threw 6 2/3 innings in Tampa Bays 5-1 win at home.Those starts were at home and Odorizzi has struggled at times in New York, going 1/3 with a 6.00 ERA in six games.
