    Still talking about PED's and affecting baseball conversation. Talking about Castro now. Spiegel asking about his numbers at various positions in the lineup. Hoyer talking about how lineup spots can get in guy's heads, but that year over year, lineup spots don't really make a difference. Envisions him getting on base more, and more power. Hoyer's definition of a "prospect": Combination of scouting and numbers. Certain physical skills. Back to Castro, he's younger than most of the guys on the top 100 list, but has 3 years of major league experience. End of interview.

    Asked about how much patience for rebuild the Ricketts family has: Complimented the Ricketts, talked about how the Cubs have never really had a long term plan...they've had a hot team here and there. Whole FO wants to win badly, but don't wanna try to do it too quickly at the sacrifice of long term. Asked about Curt Schilling's comments this morning about someone in the Red Sox clubhouse in regards to PED's: Hoyer denied that either he or Theo were involved in that conversation. Talked about how well MLB and the union are doing with testing...etc etc. Don't caaaaaaarrrrrrre.

    Paraphrasing.... On Edwin Jackson in context of rebuild: Gotta do things in pieces. Can't get a ton of players at once when you decide you're ready to really compete. Talking about positives out of last season...Rizzo, Shark, Barney. Silver linings in minor leagues, but don't lose sight of major league team. Looking for more core guys to emerge. Talking about Kane County: Talked about how good a team was at Boise last year, and how many of those will play at Kane County. Complimented Peoria, but excited about Kane County.

    Jed Hoyer on the Score momentarily.

    McShay has the Bears taking Te'o first round.

    Could you tell me where Jonathan Cooper and Lane Johnson went (obviously Joeckel, Fisher and Warmack won't be available)? I'd rather have Cooper than Fluker, not sure about Johnson. I can't see Kiper's draft (insider) but Walterfootball has Johnson going #11 to the Chargers, and Cooper going to the Bears. Fluker to Carolina in 2nd round, #44 overall.

    I'm pretty sure Cutler has agreed to another year of his radio show too, which is awesome news, imo.

    I'll be stunned if Rose's first game is at home.

    Spoilered for size.

    Yeah...and I'm loving the short season. it's like the NBA last year. In a perfect world, both would shorten their seasons significantly, but too much money involved. Enjoy it while it lasts.

    Apparently this is Brian Urlacher's boat: http://i.imgur.com/ViCJuJW.jpg

    Truly outstanding stuff. http://espn.go.com/college-sports/recruiting/football/story/_/id/8921988/alex-collins-letter-intent-taken-mother-sources-say If he's 18, and doesn't need a guardian to co-sign, why can't they just get another LOI for him to sign?

    Todd Helton got a DUI this morning.

    Giants released Ahmad Bradshaw and Chris Canty.

    Ugh. Two straight nights of 9:30 games this week? Suck.

    4.2% ticket price increase on average.

    Yeah, the stupid side of the debate (Flacco has as many Super Bowl rings as Rodgers and Peyton so he must be as good!!) is really annoying. love it or hate it, in today's NFL, super bowls are won by very good to great quarterbacks. So, I presume by "today's NFL" you mean after Trent Dilfer and Brad Johnson won Super Bowls? It's a chicken and the egg issue. Do great QB's lead teams to Super Bowls or does winning a Super Bowl cause us to elevate a QB to "great" status?

    What are you one of those nutso Steelers fans who pretend that cutting down on cheap hits equates to sissification? Yeah, probably. But really if they are going to call a penalty on every hard check, it is sissification. I like that word. GTFOOH

    Hahaha. Danny Amendola's agent on how the Rams claiming Titus Young affects Amendola's FA negotiations....

    Apparently the NHL rescinded the match penalty for Desjardins.

    He's still good for rising like the old days every couple of weeks ESPN is practically replaying it on continuous loop on Sportscenter.
