Phillies Notes
The Phillies made a few roster moves today. First, they claimed right-handed reliever Tim Lahay off waivers from the Chicago Cubs. Lahay is a Rule 5 guy, so he will have to remain on the 25-man roster for a year before they could move him to the minors. They have the option to waive him, but they ...

Cubs interested in Mike Lamb?
According to the Tribune the Cubs are interested in signing Mike Lamb to a minor league deal. Lamb was pretty good with the Astros in 2004, 2006 and 2007, but was horrific with the Twins last year. He can play 1st and 3rd.

Around the Halo 3/31/2009
Yesterday in Tempe the Angels battered former Angel Bartolo Colon and the Chicago White Sox 13-3.I must confess I was a bit worried about the Angels offense but they are looking spectacular this spring. They've scored 101 runs in their last 9 games. That's ridiculous. My biggest worry was infield offense and so Erick Aybar, Howie Kendrick and Kendry Morales are bringing it.However...

MLB.com shows it has a sense of humor
It's the usual storyline, but for some reason, the headline struck me as funny tonight. (I'd like to point out that this likely the 100th anniversary of the first Cubs fan saying, "This is the year.")Tonight, as the third story on the MLB.com home page was the headline, "Once again, this could be the year."It seems like even MLB.com might be sick of its own hype. Just look at the...
