- The Minnesota Twins announce that they will have a closer-by-committee. Is his name Camel by any chance?
- Travis Hafner of the Cleveland Indians has the best bat speed in two years. MLB is rumored to be considering testing his bat for steroids but haven't figured out how to get a urine sample.
- Rafael Perez of the Indians is slated to be their set up man. Bets are that he is working hard to set up Tribe fans for a major disappointment.
- MLB has ruled that mop-up relievers cannot take a mop to the mound - they will have to pitch around the mess.
- The Players Association has filed a grievance claiming that teams are discriminating against short pitchers. It has been observed that anyone under 5'10" is automatically designated as a short reliever.
- In another grievance, The Players Association claims that long relievers are overworked.
- The Tea Party has been seen demonstrating against lefty players.
- Opening Day baseball will be replaced by TGFB (Thank God For Baseball) Day! Its a mouthful , but its a long season. Play ball!

Wanna make a bet? Twins beat Indians in the standings this year (even without a closer). I'll put up a nice big leg of lamb from Sheepy Hollow at Native Oaks Farm. What'a you put up?

Serves me right for impugning the baseball prowess of the Minnesota Twins. Your on! Considering the disparity in forecasted rankings would my wearing a Twins hat and tee shirt for a month be considered adequate?
