Stuff While Waiting for the Deadline
I love Ray King:
Ankiel Update:
1st game: 4 IP, 0 ER, 3 H, 1 BB, 3 K, 1 HB
2nd game: 5 IP, 4 ER, 8 H, 8K , 1 HB
3rd game: 4.3 IP, 4 R, 2 ER, 8 H, 7 K, 1 BB
4th game: 7 IP, 0 ER, 5 H, 7 K, 2 HB, 1 WP (CGSO)
So, that's 25 strikeouts v. 3 walks. There's also another WP in there someplace.
In word form
Full Stats
11:00 am
Peter Gammons thinks the Cards and Dodgers are competing for the affections of Matt Clement. Only if Clement shaves.
2:00 pm
Nomar re-signed with the Baby Bears - 1 year/$8 million (up to $11 million with incentives, like actually playing).
Thank God Edgar won't be a Cub. I don't think I could have handled that.
3:22 pm
Looks like Kline and Williams will not be offered arbitration. Matheny might have been, and there's no word yet on Morris.
6:30 pm
Todd Walker also signed with the Cubbies, 1 year/$2.5 million, $2.5 million club option for 2006. Some fans have convinced themselves they are getting Drew and/or Beltran. I don't even know where to start with that.
"Hey, I'm all for the minor-league policy," King said. "Whatever needs to be done. We as a union and we as Major League Baseball ... if it takes getting a stricter drug policy to clean up the game, we need to do it.Full article
"If it takes putting Bud, Don (Fehr, union chief) and doctors in a room, locking 'em up and not letting 'em out until they get something resolved, I'm all for it."
