&lt;h3 class="link-title"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.kansascity.com/sports/royals/story/1564495.html"&gt;Callaspo did not qualify as a super&amp;nbsp;2.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;div class="description"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Callaspo still dirt cheap next season, wonder if that will have any impact on possible trades?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class="description"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Mets eyeing Jacobs, and plan to take him from us and pay him 4 million.

&lt;h3 class="link-title"&gt;&lt;a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/chicago/mlb/news/story?id=4490125"&gt;Milton Bradley suspended by the&amp;nbsp;Cubs&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;div class="description"&gt;&lt;p&gt;     Ok, so lets make a deal with the Cubs, say Bradley for Guillen and Meche.  Bradley is under contract for two years at $10 million a year, Guillen is under contract for $12 million next year and Gil Meche for 2 years $12 million each.  Bradley could be a great DH and hit behind Billy, and we pick up $16 million in payroll flexability.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class="description"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Aviles to second base, and your new DH... wait for it.... Bert!
&lt;br /&gt;Yes, we will have that rare DH / backup 2nd baseman combination, because you just have to have lots of middle infielders, there are just never enough!  Sorry Kila, maybe you can come up in September if you are really good this year.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

      <title>Guillen has his teamates slap him before the game.</title>

&lt;h3 class="link-title"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.kansascity.com/royals2009/story/1122020.html"&gt;Guillen has his teamates slap him before the&amp;nbsp;game.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;div class="description"&gt;&lt;p&gt;     Guillen promised to do better this year, and by most measures he seems to have improved quite a bit.  He uses a meal-delivery service that specializes in healthy diets.  He said that, "I get crazy sometimes", and plays best when he "can&#8217;t see colors." and so he has players slap him before the game to get mad.  He also buys tickets for people who can't afford them, so you should contact him for some tickets I guess, although you may have to slap him before the game. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class="description"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Callaspo's spot in order is offering him comfort.
&lt;br /&gt;Plus he gives Jacobs protection in the order. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;h3 class="link-title"&gt;&lt;a href="http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/standings/"&gt;Cleveland goes ahead 6-3 with 4 runs in the&amp;nbsp;seventh...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;div class="description"&gt;&lt;p&gt;The gives up 7 in the bottom of the inning to drop to 10-17.
&lt;br /&gt;The Indians are are looking a lot like the Major Leauge II team.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

      <title>Was A-Rod tipping pitches?</title>

&lt;h3 class="link-title"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.3-dbaseball.net/2009/04/was-rod-tipping-pitches.html"&gt;Was A-Rod tipping&amp;nbsp;pitches?&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;div class="description"&gt;&lt;p&gt;According to this article, opposing players lines went from
&lt;br /&gt;5 + Run Games, 7th inning or later sample size of around 700 Pa's
&lt;br /&gt;.327 / .391 / .718 with out A-Rod at short
&lt;br /&gt;.340  / .472 / .812 with A-rod possibly tipping pitches&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Is that enough of a difference with enough sample size to draw any conclusions?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt; 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
