"These potential changes could improve the usefulness of short sale-related information to FINRA, other regulators, investors and other market participants," FINRA said.

LEADING OFF: Yankees, Cards slumping, all eyes on Philly net
Slumping DJ LeMahieu and the skidding Yankees hope to get back on target when they start a set at Target Field against the Twins. New York has lost four in a row, coming off a weekend sweep by Boston at Yankee Stadium, and is fourth in the AL East, a division that many predicted it would win. LeMahieu (batting .253), Gary Sanchez (.210), Brett Gardner (.190), Rougned Odor (.180) and the Yankees rank near the bottom of the majors in scoring, and have averaged barely 2 1/2 runs per game over the past two weeks.
