ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Jake Odorizzi is focused on a strong second half and not trade speculation.Odorizzi pitched masterfully into the seventh inning, Logan Forsythe and Corey Dickerson hit solo homers in the first, and the Tampa Bay Rays cooled off the surging New York Yankees 5-1 on Friday night.Scouts from many playoff contenders were in attendance with Mondays non-waiver trade deadline looming.Im not really worried about it, to be honest, Odorizzi said. Im worried about what I do here, and coming out in the second half and starting off well, which I think we have. Thats what my purpose is, to get better because in the first half I wasnt happy with myself.Odorizzi (5-5) struck out five and allowed six hits over 6 2/3 innings. Alex Colome entered with two on and one out in the ninth, and got two straight outs for his 23rd save.Odorizzi went eight scoreless innings in previous start Friday at Oakland, a game that Tampa Bay lost 1-0 in 13 innings. The Rays are 6-5 since losing 24 of 27.Odos last two starts were tremendous, Rays manager Kevin Cash said.Teams represented included San Francisco, the Chicago Cubs, Florida, Cleveland, Washington, Toronto, Baltimore, Texas and the Chicago White Sox.Ivan Nova (7-6) gave up five runs and six hits in 4 1/3 innings. When pulled by Yankees manager Joe Girardi, Nova directed several comments toward plate umpire Laz Diaz walking toward the dugout and then fired his glove against the wall after reaching the dugout steps.Ivan wasnt pleased with his strike zone, Girardi said. Its hard for me to tell, but I thought there were some pitches that looked pretty good.Nova didnt blame the strike zone for his loss, but bad pitch command.TRAINERS ROOMRays: RHP Alex Cobb (Tommy John surgery) resumed a minor league rehab assignment after taking 2 1/2 weeks off due to fatigue and struck out two over two hitless innings for Class A Charlotte.MOVING DAYTampa Bay placed 1B Logan Morrison (right forearm strain) and OF Oswaldo Arcia (right elbow strain) on the 15-day disabled list. RHP Brad Boxberger (strained left oblique) was reinstated from the 15-day DL and INF-OF Nick Franklin was recalled from Triple-A Durham.A-RODGirardi said DH Alex Rodriguez could start Saturday night after being out of the lineup six straight games.

The NFL is bragging about how for the first time since 1935, Thanksgiving Day features three games with all six teams at .500 or better.Considering how mediocre so many teams are this season, Pro Picks isnt sure how to take that stat.Regardless, there are two very significant divisional matchups on Thursday at the traditional holiday sites, Dallas and Detroit. And an important inter-division contest in Indianapolis.The Colts (5-5) have won two in a row, but the most recent victory was costly, particularly with the Sunday-Thursday timeframe for their game with the Steelers. Andrew Luck entered the concussion protocol on Monday.The backup quarterback for Indianapolis (No. 17 in AP Pro32) is Scott Tolzien. Not exactly in Lucks class, you say?Weve got a guy that comes to work every single day and prepares like a starter ever since hes been in this building, Colts coach Chuck Pagano says of Tolzien, whos in his fourth NFL season, has thrown 91 passes (all with Green Bay when Aaron Rodgers was hurt) and has not taken a snap this year.He understands and knows this offense and if thats the case, hell go out and play winning football.Sorry, we dont buy it.Yes, the Steelers (also 5-5, No. 16 in AP Pro32), are no powerhouse this season, especially on defense. But theyve got more than enough against the Luck-less Colts.BEST BET: STEELERS, 33-13No. 11 Minnesota (plus 2 1-2) at No. 10 DetroitWe have to pick an upset, though were lukewarm on this one.UPSET SPECIAL: VIKINGS, 20-19No. 8 Washington (plus 7) at No. 1 DallasRedskins should have won first meeting.
