Haha, a new rule calls for a pitcher to be charged a ball for every time he takes longer than 12 seconds to throw a pitch with no one on base.
Steve Trachsel will be pissed. |

that's a stupid rule.
I guess next they charge the batter with a strike if he steps out of the batter's box to adjust his elbow pad or whatever. |

I'm all for speeding up the game, but it can't be one sided. Mind you 12 seconds shouldn't be an issue.

People keep coming at ARod with the same questions, what he's done I think is pretty smart, it puts some of the onus on Jeter. If Jeter stays quiet, then he too can stay quiet. If Jeter wants to discuss things to the media (I doubt it) then ARod can feel free to do so himself. Thing is, at least in my opinion. ARod will still carry on talking. But tactically (LOL) he's set it up properly.

One article I read said they were best friends in like 2002, I didn't even know they knew each other before A-Rod became a Yank.

You sure about that article BCWWF? Pretty sure A-Rod called out Jeter in 2001 saying "he doesn't have to hit in the 3 spot like me" and then brought up how poeple worry about Bernie and Paul O'Neil when facing the Yankees, not Jeter. That's how this whole thing started really (plus A-Rod disappears in the playoffs...and all of a sudden sucks at defense)
Pressure has nothing to do with it though, players just play no matter what. |

Lol, where is the Miz anyway?
But yeah, I am not sure about the article. I think either I read it wrong or the article was wrong, because I don't see how the two could have been good friends back then. |

so apparently Josh Hamilton (former #1 pick, out of league because of drugs) has been unreal so far in spring training and has impressed everyone who's seen him
that'd be a pretty cool The Natural scenario if he becomes good the movie scenario not the book btw |

As of right now Papelbon is in the starting rotation.
He pitched 2 innings and struck out the side both times today. Looking real good his first innings back since the shoulder scare. |

Just the fact that Pavano pitched today was good news. Igawa is going next so should be interesting to see how he does.

Igawa's first inning he gives up 3 walks and strikes out 3 giving up 1 run. He wasn't missing by much on the walks, but he didn't look really sharp at the start.

If Sheffield connected with that first pitch I think the ball would have ended up in Georgia

Also, even though it's spring training, I can tell you the one thing this Detroit team will have this year that is different from last year.

Actually, Kei Igawa has been predicted to fail by pretty much everybody so that really makes no sense.

In all honesty, I mean both. I mean according to ESPN when I was watching the Tigers Yankees game today, they have Dice-K as the 12th best pitcher in baseball this year.
