The available talent pool at this years MLB non-waiver trade deadline ranked among the weakest in years, but that didnt stop 28 of the 30 MLB teams from making some sort of move by Aug. 1. The Detroit Tigers and Philadelphia Phillies were the only wallflowers.Its always a challenge to slap a grade on deadline trades so quickly, because circumstances are fluid and snapshots can be deceiving. Prospects involved in trades cant be judged until two or three years down the road. And what happens if the player acquired by a contending club burns it up but his new team flops, or vice versa?But were happy to do the dirty work and assess how 13 contenders that made trades at the deadline have fared through six weeks. Sorry, fans of the Royals (Billy Burns), Cardinals (Zach Duke), Astros (Guadalupe Chavez ) and Mariners (Dan Vogelbach), but your teams acquisitions failed to make the cut.Chicago CubsTim McCarver Jersey . -- PGA TOUR Canada member Steve Saunders took a three-stroke lead Saturday in the Web.

The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the Lions have not announced the hiring, which was first reported by ESPN. Lombardi, the grandson of former Green Bay Hall of Fame coach Vince Lombardi, has been an offensive assistant on Sean Paytons New Orleans staff since 2007.Alex Noren described his superb final-day 63 as the best round of his career after he stormed to a remarkable six-shot victory at the Nedbank Golf Challenge.The Swede was already enjoying the most profitable season of his life, having collected three victories in 10 starts, and he made it four in 11 on his debut at the Gary Player Country Club after turning a six-stroke overnight deficit into a handsome win on the final day. Alex Noren is congratulated by Race to Dubai leader and fellow Swede Henrik Stenson on the 18th green Noren was particularly hot on the greens, opening with a 30-foot putt for birdie and picking up five more shots in an outward 30, and he kept his momentum flowing by holing another long-range effort for eagle at the 10th. The 34-year-old suddenly found himself three clear at the top when he pitched in for another birdie from over the green at the next and, despite a bogey at 14 ending his hopes of a 59, he got the shot back at 16 and parred safely in as 54-hole leader Jeunghun Wang faded down the stretch. Noren carded an eagle, eight birdies and just one bogey in his closing 63 Norens eighth career title lifts him into the worlds top 10 for the first time, a remarkable rise from his ranking of 108th barely four months ago, while he also has an outside chance of overhauling Henrik Stenson at the top of the Race to Dubai standings at next weeks season-ending DP World Tour Championship.Its unbelievable, said the Swede, who claimed his third win of the year at last months British Masters supported by Sky Sports. Yesterday was a bit tough and my game wasnt really there. But I tried to get the right feelings for today and it clicked. I dont think Ive ever played as good, especially on the greens. Norens victory was his fourth of the season and lifted him to world No 9 You get a bit more relaxed as a player and you might be able to hole a putt and it was one of those rounds. This was the round of my life.I think me and my caddie worked a lot on ttrying to go for the right places on the green, because there are so many tricky pins here.dddddddddddd They tuck those pins away up in the corners of the greens and its easy to make bogeys. Live European Tour Golf November 17, 2016, 8:00am Live on Get Sky Sports Get a Sky Sports pass All I was trying to do was hit the right shots at the right pieces of the green and putt uphill, and then not make too many bogeys because around here, I think youve got a few birdie chances.Coming off the unbelievable start, on the 10th green I saw that I was leading and Jeunghun (Wang) dropped a few shots. All of a sudden, I was actually in front and not chasing, and that made it a little different. But I stuck in there in it feels amazing. Noren has an outside chance to win the Race to Dubai Noren played the final round alongside Stenson, who extended his Race to Dubai lead over Danny Willett to just under 300,000 points as he closed with a battling 70 to finish in eighth place on six under.Stenson paid tribute to his fellow Swede afterwards, saying: Alex rolled in a big slinger at the first and got a good notch on the second, almost made eagle, and he kept on playing solid and making those putts. It felt like he was on fire, no one was really able to touch him. Stenson retained his Race to Dubai lead after finishing eighth Well done to him, all the credit and hes definitely in there in the mix for the last week. With Alex playing as well as he does, it just motivates me even more to bring my game to Dubai next week and then try and be up there.Also See:Norens amazing 63Final leaderboardGolf live on Sky Sports 4European Tour Schedule ' ' '
