Around AL Central Spring Training, 3/10: Convert Dontrelle Willis to Outfielder?

Indians: Jerry Crasnick essentially says Grady Sizemore is awesome and important to the Tribe's chances. The DiaTribe discusses the enigmatic Carmona. And Ryan Garko just can't believe how different the Indians' roster looks these days. "Jarring," is how he describes it. Oh, the terrible effects of time on all we love and all we are.

Tigers: Scott Sizemore isn't worried about his ankle being sore. The Tigers blog Take 75 North addresses the curious "move Dontrelle Willis to the outfield" meme, which I will now promulgate. Lastly, Jack Moore reminds us to once again watch Magglio Ordonez's PAs closely. Fun roster.

Royals: Jason Kendall won't let the bizarre rumors swirling around him get in the way of his magical pursuit of an OPS over .600. Greg Schaum profiles Royal prospect Tim Smith, while the Kings of Kauffman blog does the same for Chris Dwyer. Royals Authority looks at homegrown versus market talents.

White Sox: Get this, according to the Sun Times, Andruw Jones is "jonesing" for a chance to play. South Side Sox offers a projection of Freddy Garcia. Finally, let it be noted that the noble White Sox "take no joy" in Nathan's injury.

Twins: Twinkie Town offers post-Nathan hope. While the "who will get the saves?" stories continue to multiply. That's how we write baseball obituaries now. Finally, everyone's favorite writer Joe Posnanski discusses Nathan's total dominance of the AL Central (weirdly, not home to the Yankees). You'll have to click the link to see if he somehow also mentions growing up in Cleveland or Pete Rose.
