In a start for the St. Louis Cardinals on May 21, 1991, 28-year-old Jamie Moyer lasted 2 2/3 innings, allowed four runs on five hits and took the loss to drop to 0-5 for the year. It was the final Major League appearance for Moyer for almost exactly two years, meaning that he concluded his 20s with a grand total of 34 career victories.

Since 1893, 1,214 pitchers have recorded more wins through their age-29 season than Moyer's 34. Smokey Joe Wood had 34 victories in his age-22 season alone, and Christy Mathewson had reached 30 victories in four different seasons before he turned 30.

Yet with all of that, as of Thursday, only 34 pitchers in baseball history have accumulated more wins than Jamie Moyer.

It's that time again.

While MLB.com's Top 100 Draft prospects list has been live for some time, that's a ranking based on talent. Now, it's time to try to figure out who is going to go where in the first round. Starting with the first 10 picks, then increasing by 10 each week to get to a full first-round projection in the week prior to the Draft, here is a projection of how those selections might go on the big first night.

The annual Draft takes place this year on June 4-6, beginning with the first round and Compensation Round A on Monday, June 4, at 7 p.m. ET. The first night of the event will be broadcast live on MLB Network and streamed live on MLB.com. Rounds 2-40 will also be streamed live on MLB.com on June 5-6.

Texas Rangers 4, Oakland Athletics 1

Yu Darvish continued his quest to be the finest Japanese import yet with seven strong innings (1 ER, 4 H, 2BB, 7K) against the A’s on Wednesday. The tall righty has now struck out 58 men in just 52 innings, and he seems to be getting a better grasp on limiting his walks. Darvish got all the runs he needed off the bat of Adrian Beltre, whose two-run homer in the fourth was enough to win. Josh Hamilton added a couple hits of his own, and his batting average remains obscene at .404. Curiously, Jemile Weeks reached base three times for the A’s but failed to attempt any steals.

Tampa Bay Rays 2, Boston Red Sox 1

Jeremy Hellickson and Clay Buchholz engaged in something of a pitcher’s duel, but both starters found their pitch counts too high to go very deep in the game. Both bullpens were masterful, and the 2-1 score at the end of six innings wound up being the final. Luke Scott and Daniel Nava were the only players to drive in runs, while both pitching staffs racked up nine strikeouts.

Midsummer Classic to be played in Queens for first time since '64

NEW YORK -- From the Polo Grounds to old Yankee Stadium, Ebbets Field and Shea Stadium, New York has hosted more MLB All-Star Games than any other city.

The Big Apple will do it again, next year at Citi Field.

With Commissioner Bud Selig and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg in attendance, it was announced Wednesday that the Mets will host the 2013 All-Star Game on July 16, 2013, marking the city's ninth All-Star Game, but the first in Queens since 1964.

Five Cuts on daily and season trends as the major league season approaches the quarter-point:

1. The AL East is, again, proving to be baseball's deepest division

All five teams in the AL East have a positive run differential -- each with double digits, no less, as the Orioles are +15, the Rays +16, the Yankees +17, the Blue Jays +15 and the Red Sox +12 -- while no other division has more than three teams in the black. The AL West and NL West each have just one such team (the Rangers and Dodgers, respectively); the AL Central, meanwhile, does not have a single team that has scored more runs than it has allowed.

Much of the AL East's success is can be explained by their teams' success in games outside the division. They are an aggregate 33-19 against the AL Central with a +64 run differential and 29-22 against the AL West with a +11.

Of course it's worth noting that the five AL East teams combine for a run differential of +75 -- which is exactly the same as the Rangers have by themselves.

AMERICAN LEAGUE

Los Angeles Angels 4, Oakland Athletics 0

Whether it’s a coincidence or not (it is), the Angels managed to not get shut out on the night hitting coach Mickey Hatcher was given the axe. Wunderkind Mike Trout and the bizarre 2012 version of Albert Pujol seach collected three hits and combined to drive in three runs, a total that was more than enough for Ervin Santana to work with. Santana struck out nine in seven shutout innings, a welcome change from the homer-laden outings he’d been prone to in earlier starts. Angels fans shouldn’t get too excited about the three-hit performance from Pujols, though; two of his hits never left the infield. Jemile Weeks stole his 10th base of the young season for the A’s, but one can only wonder how many steals he’d have if he was getting on base at a higher clip than .275.

Cleveland Indians 5, Minnesota Twins 0

Under normal circumstances, it would be weird to report that the aging Derek Lowe threw a complete game shutout Tuesday night without striking out a single batter. Consider that he was facing the reeling Twins, however, and it all begins to make sense. Lowe got support from Shin-Soo Choo, Carlos Santana, and Asdrubal Cabrera. All three of these Cleveland batsmen were good for two hits and a homer each.

BALTIMORE (AP) Josh Hamilton expects it will take some time before he realizes the significance of becoming the 16th player in baseball history to hit four home runs in a game.

He does, however, appreciate how fortunate he was to be playing baseball at Camden Yards on Tuesday night as a member of the Texas Rangers. Because, before his epic performance against the Baltimore Orioles, Hamilton had to do something even harder than launching a quartet of two-run homers.

WASHINGTON – Exhibit 48, a torn customer copy of a shipping label addressed to the attention of strength trainer Brian McNamee at Roger Clemens' Houston home, continues to draw considerable attention at Clemens' perjury trial in U.S. District Court.

Kirk Radomski, a convicted steroids dealer on the stand for a second day Wednesday, testified that the receipt referred to a box that contained two kits of human growth hormone and 50 to 100 needles that he shipped to McNamee.

NEW YORK (AP) -- Andy Pettitte will be back on the mound in the Bronx on Sunday, and the New York Yankees are hoping he can again be a reliable presence in their rotation.

Pettitte is set to start against the Seattle Mariners in his first major league outing since retiring after the 2010 postseason.

"I think it will be a great day at the Stadium," manager Joe Girardi said.

Robertson finishes Yankees' win over Rays

NEW YORK (AP) — David Robertson struck out Carlos Pena with the bases loaded to end a rocky ninth inning in his first save chance since Mariano Rivera's season-ending knee injury, helping the New York Yankees end a seven-game skid against the Tampa Bay Rays with a 5-3 win Monday night.

Raul Ibanez homered twice, Curtis Granderson also connected and the Yankees handed James Shields (5-1) his first loss in seven starts this season.

Ivan Nova (4-1) rebounded nicely after snapping his 15-game winning streak, pitching seven sharp innings, the last three in a steady rain. He gave up six hits and struck out eight.

Shields gave up three runs and four hits in six innings.

TWINS 5, ANGELS 0

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Scott Diamond pitched a career-best seven scoreless innings in his season debut and Ryan Doumit hit a two-run homer, lifting Minnesota over Los Angeles.

Diamond (1-0) struck out six, the most in any of his eight major league starts, and allowed only four hits. He's the first Twins starter to pitch this year without allowing a run.

Diamond got 12 groundball outs, seven to shortstop Brian Dozier, and walked only one.

Dan Haren (1-3) didn't even finish the fourth, the shortest of his seven starts this season after pitching into the seventh inning in each of his last four appearances. He gave up eight hits and five runs with two walks over 3 2/3 innings.
