Those are some really ugly numbers overall. Wasn't Anibal Sanchez mentioned a time or two this offseason?

Love it! If they could condense it down to about half the time, it would be perfect.

Wow, lots of early success for that bunch, aside from Casilla and Revere.

Great question! My top 3 are Brendan Harris, Tony Batista, and Rondell White. I also always liked the veteran backup catchers, from Greg Myers and Henry Blanco to Mike Redmond and Tom Prince, but...

This definitely appeals to a certain group of fans and I guarantee those 60 tickets will be in high demand. There are grown men who push over kids to get batting practice home run balls--now's their...

My guess would be DeVries will wind up on the DL making it an easy transition for Diamond. Roenicke or Robertson probably go down when Swarzak is ready. Too bad they have to make any such move...

Wasn't that also the year Tony Fiore picked up like 12 wins in relief?

I knew that was the case. I wonder if that was the longest active streak in baseball. I figure most teams, even horrible ones, have started a season 1-1 the past couple years.

LaVelle E. Neal says Alex Burnett has been optioned to AAA Rochester. Burnett's inclusion on the roster the past few years has been baffling to me especially when it seemed there were always better...

Actually they optioned Romero to Class A, not AAA.

Interesting! I totally agree with Terry Ryan's thinking. I also found this Mastroianni comment refreshing:

Kvasnicka's uncle is my company's HR guy, and he gave me the family-insider scouting report!

"Yep, a lot of excitement with the family here, hopefully will be playing at Fort Myers (Upper Class A)...

Each team should average 16-17 players on this list. Doesn't seem the Twins will get half that. But I guess we're making up for it by dominating the prospect lists.

My fantasy league has 3 spots remaining (a few dropouts from last season) and we are drafting Thursday evening at 8pm CT. Most everyone in the league is a Twins fan and from MN (except me in TX). ...

Josh Willingham is currently hitting .727 in spring training. I wonder what the highest batting average a player has ever had at any point during a season under 1.000? Anyone can go 1-for-1 and...

I would bet Lohse and Gardenhire still aren't bitter after that incident years ago. The entire roster has turned over since Lohse was last here. That said I still think the odds are astronomical.

Great move by the Indians! Concession prices really are a big deterrent, and probably even moreso if you're thinking of taking the whole family. I don't think the idea of concession prices has ever...

Sano. My theory is people like power. A legit contender for HR champion would get the fans in the stands in a hypothetical upstart team that would surely be horrible for a couple seasons.

I think most people tend to adamantly state that spring training means absolutely nothing... standings, stats, etc. They cannot be relied upon for any true measure of a team's regular season...

Apparently every spring training game is on local radio this year.

In rural South Dakota the highest level available to me was Little League through 6th grade. I was terrible for many years, striking out almost every time, but occasionally things would click and...

I think it's completely open to interpretation. What if we get to spring training and Jeff Clement hits .423 with 8 homers in extended action... it's certainly possible he could then make it as a...

I would be happy to be a Cleveland fan this offseason. I actually think they had the best offseason in the division, if not the AL.

Some of the major additions:


Terry Francona
Nick...

Well, I have to go with Pat Meares. The first Twins game I ever attended was a double-header vs. Oakland in 1996 at the age of 14 and I snuck down to third or fourth row behind the dugout for the...

Chrome seems faster to open and load. I also like how I can type, for instance, r, enter, and it goes to reader.google.com. I really only have a handful of sites I visit so all it needs is the...
