  1. The Bears keep Idonije and the AP seems to think that the press conference about Azumah may be for a new contract:
  2. Bulls up 27-14 after a quarter in Indianapolis.
  3. Apparently Azumah is expected to announce his retirement tomorrow. I just assumed he was going into free agency.
  4. They wasted outs playing small ball before they hit HRs better than the Cubs, but I don't think that's playing as a team.
  5. All that I could find so far:
  6. Bears sign Griese to a 5-year deal: Huh.
  7. http://us.news2.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/p/ap/20060321/capt.azmg10203212255.brewers_cubs_spring_baseball_azmg102.jpg http://us.news2.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/p/ap/20060321/capt.azmg10103212252.brewers_cubs_baseball_azmg101.jpg http://us.news2.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/p/ap/20060321/capt.azmg10503212331.brewers_cubs_spring_baseball_azmg105.jpg Walrond http://us.news2.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/p/ap/20060321/capt.azmg10603212332.brewers_cubs_spring_baseball_azmg106.jpg
  8. Fleita was supposedly pretty much set on Guzman starting the season at AAA before ST started. I'm guessing they'll be satisfied with his health enough to the point where they won't feel it's necessary for him to start off in warmer weather.
  9. I wouldn't be surprised if they're wrong again, though. According to the Brewers broadcast schedule, there isn't a radio broadcast today.
  10. Yeah, that was pretty bad. I'm pretty sure Morgan backed that up with a "uh huh."
  11. Daisuke gets tournament MVP. Cuba shaking hands with the Japanese is a good image to go out on.
  12. And Fukudome breaks it open with two strikes. Basehit to left, 9-5 Japan.
  13. details plz He's done nothing tonight but go on and on about just how different Japanese and Cuban players are. The best was when he spent five minutes talking about how passionate the Latin players are while the Japanese were very scientific about everything. Cool. Can he offer up some stereotypes of blacks & whites, too? My favorite comment of the WBC has to be how Cuban players were like robots because they don't stand out (and don't want to stand out) so they can play as a team. Fukudome time.
  14. 9th. It's been a good game, but not all that great. The first inning set a bad tempo for the rest of the game. Ichiro drives in a big insurance run. Bases loaded, one away for Japan.
  15. Cepeda pulls a 2-run HR and Cuba is down just one. Time for things to get interesting. And Joe Morgan points out that if they had scored a run a few innings ago instead of hitting into a DP, they'd be tied. Of course, he's been saying all along that the run they didn't score would've mostly been a psychological boost.
  16. Joe Morgan just found five different ways to say that Watanabe looked away too quickly as he was taking the throw so he could find the first base bag. Of course, the replays pretty clearly showed that he just dropped the ball. Despite the two errors in the inning, Japan still leads it 6-3 after 7.
  17. Cuba takes advantage of the error at short and plates two quick runs against Watanabe. But he gets an inning ending double play on the next pitch with men at the corners. 6-3 Japan after 6.
  18. 5-1 Japan now. Cuba has started to swing the bats well, but nothing to show for it.
  19. details plz He's done nothing tonight but go on and on about just how different Japanese and Cuban players are. The best was when he spent five minutes talking about how passionate the Latin players are while the Japanese were very scientific about everything.
  20. Morgan is this close to breaking into a "white people do this while black people do that" routine.
  21. For the first time in this thread, please shut up, Joe Morgan.
  22. http://us.news2.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/p/ap/20060320/capt.azjm10503202307.cubs_diamondbacks_spring_baseball_azjm105.jpg http://us.news2.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/p/ap/20060320/capt.azjm10403202306.cubs_diamondbacks_spring_training_baseball_azjm104.jpg http://us.news2.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/p/ap/20060320/capt.azjm10203202302.cubs_diamondbacks_spring_baseball_azjm102.jpg
  23. Finally I'll be able to watch a full outing of Daisuke's.
