Indians announce roster decisions
Before people even had a chance to recover from their St. Patrick's Day hangovers, the Indians were hard at work once again trimming down the roster as Opening Day looms now just two weeks away.

Spring Training Game #23: Indians 4, Giants 3
West Coast night games were always a bit of a pain for me as a fan and now as a baseball writer. For natives of the Eastern Time Zone like myself, a 7:00 pm first pitch out west means we’ll be burning the midnight oil back home to follow the game action. It always helps when the Indians win, though, and even better when its done in dramatic fashion. That was the case Saturday as...

Eric Hacker > Joe Martinez > Todd Wellemeyer
Andrew Cashner throws hard. Buster Posey doesn’t care.
If the Giants weren’t going to win this game (they didn’t), it’s nice that Posey went yard and Panda extended his hit streak to 20. Dropping a game to the Padres feels like ass. Stinky stinky ass.
Eric Hacker earned his paycheck. Going into a spot start, not overworking the bullpen is the break even point. Hacker ate...
Diamondbacks recall Joe Martinez

Miami-Dade Commissioner Joe Martinez says Ozzie Guillen would be fired if not for Marlins Park
Ozzie Guillen, as you may know, is in hot water over comments he made in a Time magazine story that were supportive of former Cuban dictator Fidel Castro. Pretty insensitive on Guillen’s part, especially after you factor in the demographics of the city where he now makes his living. Guillen should have known better, but after all, he is Ozzie Guillen.
Guillen had the sense to apologize...

Who will be the Diamondbacks' 5th Starter?
The first four slots in the Arizona Diamondbacks' 2012 Starting Rotation should be set, with right-handers Ian Kennedy, Daniel Hudson, Trevor Cahill, and Josh Collmenter.
