I'm really looking forward to the new Yankees. The Steinbrenner boys are now running the show with a whole new brand of zaniness. Girardi has very much imprinted a more serious style. And Chamberline, Hughes and Kennedy will be fun.
Could well be the last year for Pettite, Giambi, Mussina, and Matsui. Some of that is good/bad.
Last year for the stadium, though I'm going to have to work hard to get to a game. 3.8 million tickets already sold. :rolleyes:

You really think the ChiSox can win the division? :gomer: :p

If the Cubs get Brian Roberts they're gonna win the... terrible Central Division. Maybe. Just like the Bears were going to walk the NFC North! These are the types of years the Chubs stroke it hard. When expectations are high and the line-up is good on paper they chunk it.
I actually caught myself being slightly deluded by Cubs madness. My gf (not the crazy billionaire) lives about 8 blocks south of Wrigley and is considering moving more downtown this summer. I almost said she should stay where she is in case the sCrUBS go to the Series as its a fantastic location to be walking distance to and from Wrigleyville for the historic occasion. I realized what I was about to say and accepted the truth of another sub 70 win season.

Back on topic...
Great little story in the Ledger this a.m. about folks who had tickets to yesterday's rained out Yanks opener. Yanks always put an off day after the opener in case it gets rained out. Fans just use their ticket the next day. If they can't make it they can exchange it for another game.
In line yesterday to swap their tickets were a father and 10 year old son from Georgia. They had flown up to see the last home opener in the Stadium. When the reporter asked why they weren't staying fo rthe game tonight, the kid grumbled "Little Mermaid"
Turns out part of the deal in coming up was they would also take little sister and mom to the Broadway play and they had expensive hard to get tickets to tonight's showing.
Poor kid. :shakehead :D

When the Giants spent $126 million on Barry Zito, they touted his ability to take the ball every fifth day.
But now, barely more than one season into a seven-year deal, they aren't sure they want to keep giving it to him.
After another erratic and utterly hittable start in a 10-1 loss to the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday, Giants Manager Bruce Bochy all but declared he would skip Zito or demote him to the bullpen.
"We've got to do something," said Bochy, after Zito allowed a six-run first inning. "We can't keep doing what we're doing and getting what we're getting."
Here is what the Giants have received from their opening day starter: an 0-6 record in six starts, a 7.81 ERA, a growing soundtrack of boos at home and no sign of a break in the clouds.
LINK (http://www.mercurynews.com/sportsheadlines/ci_9076423)
I wish he was still in Oakland. :p
isnt that expected production from a Giants player?
Zito to the pen. :laugh:
http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=3372794
Zito, who only 16 months ago signed a $126 million, seven-year contract with the Giants to lead their rotation, was informed of the move in a meeting with manager Bruce Bochy.
:eek:
-Kevin
Well CC looks to have righted the ship, although it will take more than 1 start to verify that.

CC wakes up, but the O has hit the snooze button. What looked like a sweep turns into a split. I fully expect the central to be a three-team dogfight through the summer.

Matt Morris done.
The decision to cut him will cost the Pirates more than $10 million, besides what they already have paid him this season. Morris is making $9.5 million, or about one-fifth of the Pirates' payroll, and has a $1 million buyout for 2009
As for Zito, I'm just glad I don't have to worry about him becoming a Yankee. I never disliked Zito, he just rarely pitched well against the Yankees and came with a high sticker price.

If anyone was offended by the White Sox having a pair of inflatable dolls surrounded by bats and a sign encouraging players to "push" in their clubhouse before Sunday's game in Toronto, don't expect an apology from manager Ozzie Guillen.
"I'm sure it wasn't done to disrespect anyone," Guillen said Monday. "Everyone in the clubhouse, 100 percent of the people in the clubhouse, they are 18 years old and that's a private thing. If the players do it in the dugout so everyone in the public could see it, or did it in the hotel lobby . . . we did it in the clubhouse. A lot of worse things happen in the clubhouse. I don't really know why people are making it a big deal. If people got their feelings hurt because of that . . . they don't really know much about baseball."

On the radio play by play (yeah I take a radio and listen to it at the park) the one announcer mentioned that someone else who had an unassisted triple play, and there have ever been 14 in MLB history, just happened to be in the stands scouting for some NL team (I think the Cards) for upcoming interleague play.

Yeah, it was Ron Hansen from the Phillies, who pulled one off against the Tribe in '68. What a coincidence. I don't have the stats handy, but IIRC, the unassisted triple play is the rarest achievement in baseball.

I've said it many many times - Ned Yost made Dusty Baker look like a managerial genius. If Sveum had this team all year, I think they would be ahead of my Cubs.

I just don't know what to say anymore. The first few innings were painful - hell the whole game was - but with less than 10 games left I have to enjoy what baseball I have left.

There's Badger football and basketball. By the time March Madness comes around we have spring training for baseball. :) With no Champ Car I've channeled all of my "sports emotion" to baseball.
