Rumors follow pitchers to mound on MLB.TV
- Updated: July 30, 2016
It’s the final weekend before Monday’s non-waiver Trade Deadline, and there’s a number of starting pitchers scheduled to take the mound today who have been cropping up in Major League Baseball’s rumor mill.

MLB.TV Premium has returned with the same features as last year, and is only $79.99 for the rest of the season. This package has the best value and provides access to more than 400 devices and a free subscription to the MLB.com At Bat Premium app (a $19.99 value). It offers the best picture quality ever — a new 60 frames per second — for supported devices. Monthly signups for MLB.TV Premium are now underway as well for $24.99.
The new MLB.TV Single Team package is also available as a $59.99 yearly subscription. You can watch a single team’s live out-of-market games in full HD.

He’s allowed one earned run in 14 innings over his last two starts and owns a 2.20 ERA over his last seven outings. Hellickson is 7-7 with a 3.65 ERA in 21 starts overall and is a free agent after the season.
