More specifically, MLB refers to the organization that operates North American professional baseball's two major leagues, the National League and the American League. On an organizational level, MLB effectively operates as a single "league," and as such it constitutes one of the major professional sports leagues in North America.

Monday’s Musings: Dunn to Arizona and a Dash of Zink
- Adam Dunn was dealt to the Diamondbacks today in exchange for three prospects, making the race for the NL West crown a little bit more interesting. The D-Backs land a power bat just in time for a slug-fest-ful series in Coors Field. With the Dodgers trade for Manny Ramirez and the Diamondbacks trade for Dunn, the NL East is no longer just a race to a .500 record.
- Tuesday night will see its share of aces take the mound. Game two of the Dodgers-Phillies series sees two budding lefty aces face off as Cole Hamels opposes Clayton Kershaw. Dominican phenom, Edinson Volquez will pitch against former Yankees farmhand Jeff Karstens. Last time out Karstens took a perfect game into the 8th. Rich Harden will get the start against a weak Atlanta offense. 10 strikeout performances are becoming routine for Harden in the National League, and Tuesday night should be no different. Tim Lincecum will square off against the Houston Astros. A surging Ubaldo Jiminez will get the first crack at the new and improved Arizona offense in the hitter-friendly confines of Coors Field. Scott Kazmir faces the Oakland A’s looking for his ninth win of the season. Mike Mussina, who is quietly making a bid for the AL Cy Young goes for his 16th win of the 2008.
- The Red Sox will debut a knuckleballer not named Tim Wakefield at Fenway Park. Marty Dobrow explores the hardfought pathway to the bigs for Charlie Zink. A brilliant story.
- And finally, to the chagrin of many, there is now a legal US-based Web site to bet on sports. Did I mention it was free? Happy betting!
