Gregg latest in long line of recent Cubs' closer flops
Cubs have had some bad closers since 1988, but Hawkins likely worst of worse
SAN DIEGO -- The Cubs have had their share of memorable closers over the years, from ribald Rod Beck to self-promoting wacko Turk Wendell to six-fingered flop Antonio Alfonseca.

Aaron Rowand runs into random wall to jumpstart Phillies
During a Philadelphia Phillies players' meeting intended to remedy problems the team has faced this year, outfielder Aaron Rowand jumped up and ran head-on into a wall in an attempt to get teammates fired up.
