BALTIMORE -- Tuesdays night game between the Tampa Bay Rays and Baltimore Orioles was postponed by rain. A steady downpour and low temperatures were predicted for much of the night. No makeup date was immediately announced, although it was determined that the game will not be part of a doubleheader on Wednesday. Baltimore won the opener of what was to be a three-game set 7-1 Monday, and the series will conclude Wednesday afternoon. The Rays were looking to break out of an offensive skid in which they scored only 14 runs in eight games. Tampa Bay announced Tuesday that left-hander Matt Moore will be miss the rest of the season after opting to undergo elbow-ligament replacement surgery. It was a significant blow for a team that already has starters Jeremy Hellickson (elbow) and Alex Cobb (oblique) on the 15-day disabled list. Moore had never missed time before, and Maddon knew it would be tough on the left-hander. "Emotionally its got to be very difficult for him right now," the manager said. "Its going to be hard to ask him to be patient as he goes through the process, but we have great medical people here." Tampa Bays pitching problems extended beyond that. Brandon Gomes was slated to start Tuesday night in place of Jake Odorizzi, who was sent back to the team hotel Monday with an illness. Odorizzi will pitch Wednesday, Maddon said. The Orioles, meanwhile, were preparing to play without centre fielder Adam Jones, who was sent home with flu-like symptoms. Reliever Evan Meek was sent home with the same bug. Last week, reliever Brian Matusz went to the hospital after falling ill, and third base coach Bobby Dickerson left the team for the same reason. "Its not just in our locker room," manager Buck Showalter said. "Unfortunately, medically, a lot of it is unavoidable other than dont touch or communicate with anybody all day. Thats pretty hard to do in our sport. Id like to say I havent seen it before, but I have. I just hope it runs its course." Cheap Air Max 97 All Black China .

The former MVP has a medial meniscus tear. The timetable for his return was not immediately clear. Rose had an MRI in Los Angeles on Saturday after he was injured the previous night at Portland. The three-time All-Star sat out last season recovering from a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. Now, its his other knee thats injured. The injury occurred in the third quarter against the Trail Blazers. Rose lost his footing while trying to change direction to get back on defence when Nicolas Batum stole a pass from Joakim Noah and started the other way. Rose limped across the court and couldnt put any weight on his knee. After the Blazers scored, he came out of the game during a timeout. It didnt appear there was any contact on the play. Rose was unable to return and was on crutches afterward. He will not accompany the Bulls for the remaining four games on their six-game trip. Even though the injury isnt as serious as a torn ACL, losing Rose for any chunk of time is obviously a huge blow for a team expecting to challenge LeBron James and the Miami Heat for supremacy in the Eastern Conference with its franchise player back. The Bulls (6-5) were even eyeing a championship run for the first time since the Michael Jordan-Scottie Pippen era. Now, theres a big cloud hanging over the franchise. And once again, it centres onn Rose.dddddddddddd The latest injury rekindled memories of the 2012 playoff opener against Philadelphia, when he crumpled to the court near the end of the game with a torn ACL in his left knee. That sent the top-seeded Bulls toward a first-round exit and put them in a holding pattern last season while their star recuperated. Many thought he would return at some point, particularly after he started practicing without restrictions. Instead, his recovery took on almost a circus-like feel. Fans saw him shooting and dunking before games last season and wondered why he wasnt playing. Meanwhile, the Bulls fought injuries and illnesses on the way to 45 wins and a first-round playoff victory over Brooklyn before falling to Miami. Along the way, his image took a hit. Adidas released videos documenting his progress, but Rose mostly stayed in the background, saying little about his recovery. That changed midway through the season. There was also speculation of a rift with the organization after older brother Reggie Rose ripped management for standing pat at the trade deadline, but Derrick Rose denied that. All those issues faded into the background with Rose back this season. He had insisted he was returning better than ever, had no doubts he would regain his MVP form, but he was off to an up-and-down start after a dominant preseason. A sore hamstring caused him to miss a game, and he is shooting just 35.4 per cent. He was looking better the past two games, with 19 points in a loss at Denver and 20 against Portland. ' ' '
