  6. Whispers: Lee weighty issue for Astros

    There are no signs <strong>Carlos Lee</strong> is taking his walk year any more seriously than the first five on his $100 million contract. The Astros hoped he would report at 250 pounds but instead he was 274. He and <strong>Brett Myers</strong> aren't exactly role models for a young team. &hellip; Is it any surprise <strong>Jamie Moyer</strong>, trying to win a job with the Rockies at 49, needed some extra rest after a strong outing last Sunday? The man is only four degrees of separation away from Hall of Famer <strong>Eddie Collins,</strong> who made his debut in 1906. Moyer was a teammate of <strong>Nolan Ryan,</strong> who pitched to <strong>Ernie Banks,</strong> who faced <strong>Vic Raschi,</strong> who pitched to <strong>Doc Cramer,</strong> who was a teammate of Collins. &hellip; The Brewers' starting pitching has been looking great this spring. <strong>Yovani Gallardo</strong> is on the short list of NL Cy Young Award candidates, and <strong>Zack Greinke</strong> quietly has had a good spring. &hellip; The Rangers could be a good fit if the Cubs entertain offers for <strong>Marlon Byrd,</strong> which would open center field for rookie <strong>Brett Jackson.</strong> The Rangers aren't happy with their internal options in center &mdash; the young Cuban <strong>Leonys Martin</strong> is not ready &mdash; and are trying to move reliever <strong>Koji Uehara,</strong> who could provide innings in an uncertain Cubs' bullpen. &hellip; Spring training trivia: What non-roster invitee had more hits in 2011 than anyone on his team's 40-man roster? That's <strong>Juan Pierre,</strong> whose 178 hits were 26 more than <strong>Jimmy Rollins'</strong> team-high total for the Phillies. Pierre seems likely to win a job on the bench but is getting a serious challenge from <strong>Scott Podsednik,</strong> who predated him with the White Sox. Podsednik had four doubles in his first 33 spring at-bats. &hellip; <strong>Michael Bowden</strong> has caught <strong>Bobby Valentine</strong>'s eye in his push to land a job in the Red Sox bullpen. He's out of options and would be a nice fit with the Cubs if he doesn't stick with the Red Sox. Bowden held right-handed hitters to a .121 average at Triple A last year and has developed a split-finger to help against left-handed hitters. &hellip; Scouts love <strong>Tom Milone,</strong> the Athletics' strike-throwing left-hander acquired in the <strong>Gio Gonzalez</strong> trade. He's likely to open the season with the A's. &hellip; <strong>Andy Pettitte</strong>'s comeback would have made more sense if this were still 2011, when the Yankees needed pitching. They're deeper this year with <strong>Michael Pineda</strong> and prospects <strong>Dellin Betances</strong> and <strong>Manny Banuelos</strong> are in line for mid-season promotions this year. &hellip; <strong>Bryce Harper</strong> still is in the picture for the Nationals, despite missing time with a strained calf. Manager <strong>Davey Johnson</strong> insists he'll leave Florida with his best 25 players, whoever they are because &quot;non-contenders'' worry about delaying arbitration and free agency, and obviously Johnson believes his team has outgrown such low expectations. &hellip; Good move for potential Dodgers owner <strong>Steven Cohen</strong> to meet with <strong>Tony La Russa</strong> about running the baseball operation if he lands the team. La Russa is looking for that type of challenge, although he does not want to be a GM.

  7. It's hard to top Ingmar Bergman

    The other day, after I watched <b>Ingmar Bergman</b>'s &quot;Through a Glass Darkly," the 1961 best-foreign-film Oscar winner, I brooded over my list of best movie directors of all time. Bergman is No. 1 because he and I are Swedish (!) and because of his writing, his Swedish gloominess and his ability to catch a character's soul on camera. With "Darkly," in glorious black and white, we also get to see <b>Sven Nykvist</b>'s contribution to the Bergman oeuvre. If Bergman is best director, then Nykvist (Mr. Shadows and Light) is best cinematographer.

  9. The Black Sox

    The 1919 White Sox--the White Sox of Eddie Collins, Eddie Cicotte, Dickie Kerr, Ray Schalk, Buck Weaver and &quot;Shoeless" Joe Jackson--are considered by baseball historians to be one of the greatest teams ever to take the field. But there were rumors about these Sox even before Cicotte's second pitch hit Morrie Rath, who was the leadoff batter for the underdog Cincinnati Reds in the first game of the World Series, played on this date. "I don't know yet what was the matter," Sox manager Kid Gleason told the Tribune's James Crusinberry the day the Reds won the Series. "Something was wrong. I didn't like the betting odds."
