Kotsay rientrerà soltanto in maggio. La firma di Wikerson è stata sollecitata da questo fatto.

Quest'anno questi "reports" sono iniziati anche prima dello Spring Training. D'altronde è risaputo che il 90% dei giocatori sia nella forma migliore della propria vita. L'altro 10% era un candidato all'MVP o al Cy Young l'anno precedente e si è "limitato" a mantenere la forma per ripetere la stagione :lol2:

Varitek’s refusal to wear someone else’s colors at any price. But Varitek’s agent, Scott Boras, said every time he brought another team’s curiosity to his attention during the offseason, Varitek would send him back to the Red Sox. And Smoltz said he didn’t think he could ever feel this good again about an organization, considering how long he’d lived on the other side of the fence.

Smoltz said when he’d think about staying with the Braves forever, it would have been because he had worked hard and won (or, nearly as often, saved) games and done whatever the team had asked. He always figured that if they wanted him,
there’d never be a time he’d be a free agent.
“Well,” he said Saturday, “I was a free agent four times. The fourth time led me to a uniform change.”
Smoltz didn’t say he regretted his first three decisions. But, perhaps, he didn’t have to, given the fourth decision.
“I only stayed for Bobby Cox,” he said. “Only. Gave up a lot. Sacrificed a lot.
And you know you could say I was that close to retiring as an Atlanta Brave.”

“Peace of mind,” Varitek, the captain, said. “I know I’m going to be in this uniform. I get closer to retiring in this uniform. Not saying I’m getting close to retiring any time soon.
“I’m one step closer. I’m going to be in this uniform. I’m proud of that.”

A few minutes before, his manager, Terry Francona, had been asked about Varitek’s hitting. Like, would he pinch-hit for Varitek as he did late last season. Like, did he believe Varitek was still capable of catching 120 or 130 games, particularly if he was an offensive sinkhole, no matter his uncommon touch with his pitching staff.
Varitek waved it off. There were bigger issues here.
“What was important to me was to maintain the legacy,” he said. To stay.
Yeah, Smoltz would get it. Sort of.
“Maybe it’s not a choice,” Smoltz said.

These are the hard decisions, of course, which lead to more hard decisions. The right answers are separated from the wrong by almost nothing.

John Smoltz sarà tenuto a riposo fino a giugno.

J.D. Drew’s back problems haven’t gone away.

“It’s still pretty stiff. I’ve fought it all offseason,” Drew said at the Red Sox minor league complex. “It’s one of those injuries that has kind of lingered. I’ve been able to hit and run and all that stuff. Some days I wake up stiff, some days it doesn’t seem too bad.”

Drew, who missed the last almost a month and a half in August and September last season with a bad back, said the stiffness stems from the diagnosis of a herniated disk. He had an MRI performed on the ailment recently.

Drew did say the injury wouldn’t have prevented him from playing if there was a game today.

“I’m hopeful. You can only do so much,” he said when asked if he thought it might not linger too long. “You go in the weight room and continue to keep it strong and as long as you don’t get that major flare-up you’ll be fine. Anytime you have a back like that anything can happen, but I’m very hopeful the program we have is going to work.”

Ecco là.
Rocco Baldelli get ready.

Lancio una provocazione: se vi svegliaste e leggeste che Manny ha firmato un contratto di un anno a 10 mln di dollari, voi che direste?

Preciso: non si può dire non accadrà mai o cose del genere, lui ha firmato e dovete commentare la firma sennò penitenze a tutto spiano!
