This is pretty funny, from Hunter's blog: -- Hi, It feels good to finally be drawing near the season. Everyone in camp is starting to get to know each other,...
I was wondering how that works. I was thinking they would have to play less ST games since they started the season early. That is strange though. Would it be...

Doesn't it seem strange that the Athletics and Red Sox are going to play the first two games of the season in Japan on the 25th and 26th, then they are flying...
I have heard the argument that you "can't pay a guy X-million dollars to sit on a bench". In the past, this might have been true but I think that in the ...
Regardless of his contract .. He "probably" would be a good guy in the pen, if he starts getting conditioned NOW to be that guy. Otherwise..well hell I don't...
I don't remember if I read it from a fan or article or heard one of the guys in the booth say it...but I thought I heard he was throwing a whopping 65MPH....
I just emailed Alyson Footer to get her thoughts, I'll post the email when she writes back, she's usually pretty prompt... Does anyone in here have a MySpace...

I agree with you, entirely! I just don't think that we can afford to have him on our starting rotation. I don't see how we can sit back and tell either ...
Must have not drank his prune juice this morning. He's getting beat around like a pinata at a Birthday party. This is like 3 Bad starts in a row! We can't...
Well, I won't be in Florida but have fun at the games. I agree with you about Bourn. If Wade has any acquisition/trade that he can really brag about right now,...
I know it's only Spring Training but a lot of good things I see today... Michael Bourn really looks like he's ready to be an everyday player at the big league...

When the team started playing more split squad games, they get a few minor leaguers in camp to fill in so they can field 2 teams and have a few extras. I am...
Very true! Of course, if he is a free agent then a number of teams can vie to get him and the Tigers might not end up with him.? Trying to trade for him would...
Problem is if Q isn't placed on the roster for opening day then he is a free man. Stros would get nothing. ... [Non-text portions of this message have been...
Hmm.? Wonder what the Tigers would offer for him.? Probably not much but if he has a great spring then there might be some value to be had if he continues...
Raymond just mentioned during the game that Towles was removed from the game because of a sprained right hamstring. He is day to day. Also saw this via ...
Really? Okay, my mistake.? I saw his name under the Astros spring training stats as having appeared in a game and I thought he was on the roster.? That would...
You are right on with most of your picks . However, Iorg is not on the spring training roster... [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
Well, Cooper has said that he is expected to do the first round of Spring Training cuts early next week because he needs to make room for more pitchers to get...
I agree with you that Towles looked phenomenal yesterday. That is why I feel that the odds of carrying a 3rd catcher is unlikely. If Towles is putting up...
I think it's too early to make a call on the last bench spot, but I would lean towards Cruz just due to his experience, he's a switch hitter, and would add...
KISSIMMEE, Fla. -- Why, things are absolutely splendid at Houston's camp this spring. Marvelous, in fact. For one thing, neither Miguel Tejada nor Roger...
I am really impressed w/Quintero and Cruz Jr. Cheito was great today. And Quintero was fast on the bases. He is doing much better, I heard him in interview...
I hope Tejada wakes up on the field and at the plate. I'm not sure what he did at the plate today but his stats in ST show 1 for 11 with 2 Ks thus far. That...
