WASHINGTON -- Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Rubby De La Rosa is trying to avoid a second Tommy John surgery by having a stem cell injection in his ailing elbow.Manager Chip Hale said De La Rosa met with Dr. James Andrews and decided to try the stem cell injection instead of another major surgery. Hale didnt have a timeframe for De La Rosas return other than he will miss the remainder of the season.This is kind of the next step, Hale said Monday. Hopefully hell feel better. When he left he was playing catch with us, he was throwing the ball as hard as he could, he just couldnt get over the little bit of the pain that was in there.Head athletic trainer Ken Crenshaw said the team is playing the odds, knowing De La Rosa has only about a 40 percent chance of returning after a second Tommy John surgery. The 27-year-old had the operation in 2011 with the Los Angeles Dodgers.I think Dr. Andrews feelings were lets just save our biggest bullet for last and lets try this option, Crenshaw said.Crenshaw said De La Rosa had a plasma-rich injection and that the stem cell injection is more complicated. Crenshaw said its basically taking some of your bone marrow out, spinning it down and injecting it in.De La Rosa is 4-5 with a 4.26 ERA in 13 appearances this season. In 89 games with the Dodgers, Boston Red Sox and Diamondbacks, he is 26-29 with a 4.48 ERA.Kevin Durant Thunder Jersey . -- Stanford squashed Oregons national championship hopes again, schooling the Ducks in power football.

Third-seeded Murray had the easiest path to victory on New Years Eve, barely breaking a sweat during his 6-0, 6-0 win over 2,129th-ranked Qatari wildcard recipient Mousa Shanan Zayed.In the end Winx made the $3 million Cox Plate a one-horse race.The champion mare made it back-to-back wins in Australias greatest weight-for-age race: the first in a record time, the second by a record margin.Its a dream, as simple as that, declared trainer Chris Waller after Winxs 13th win in a row.Winx turned what was billed as a showdown with top gelding Hartnell into a one-horse show. She was simply too good.It was also a dream for part-owner Debbie Kepitis, and the 26,000-strong crowd at Moonee Valley who all seemed to be cheering Winx on.My dad (Bob Ingham) once said to win a Cox Plate is an absolute thrill. To win two Cox Plates is an absolute dream.Winning three Cox Plates is now firmly on the agenda for Winx.Shell be back next year, Waller said.Waller remembers watching - in awe - another champion mare Sunline make it consecutive Cox Plate victories in 1999 and 2000.Now he is in awe as Australia embraces a new champion, albeit one he knows will never get to the same legendary status as Phar Lap or undefeated sprinter Black Caviar.Black Caviars freakish - what she did, undefeated, that will neever happen again.ddddddddddddBut as the great judges will say generations make champions and I was thinking this morning: Phar Lap, how do you eclipse what he did?To be even thought about at that echelon is pretty special.Sunline did it for a number of years, constantly at the top. Were getting there with these two Cox Plates firmly putting her right up there.Whether Winx follows Sunline in racing overseas remains to be seen.We respect the Australians and they respect her, Waller said.Maybe the world will come to us if were good enough.Wherever she goes if shes in that zone well beat anything in the world.Henry Plumptre, head of global racing powerhouse Godolphins Australian operations, admits to having a sneaking suspicion Winx was that good, even with second favourite Hartnell in top form.I mean obviously our camps disappointed to be beaten by that far, but is it any disappointment to be beaten by a champion?We werent unlucky. We were just beaten by an absolute champion. ' ' '
