Deals with Jackson, Villanueva shore up rotation
Edwin Jackson gambled, and he won. The question for the Cubs is whether he and Carlos Villanueva will win too much next season? I wouldn't worry about it if I was President Theo Epstein or general manager Jed Hoyer. They still should be sitting pretty...

Dodgers don't have room for breakout star Puig
GLENDALE, Ariz. — Sure, there are qualifiers. There always are. Arizona is a great place to hit. He's on the hottest streak of his life. And if he had been facing him in the regular season, not in late March, the White Sox's Jake Peavy wouldn't...Tags: Hanley Ramirez, Chicago Cubs, Oakland Athletics, Carl Crawford, Don Mattingly

Your Morning Phil: Marmol, Floyd, Appel
Talking baseball while wondering if the Chicago Bears can win without Brian Urlacher: 1. Maybe the Angels knew what they were doing when they tried to get Carlos Marmol. Maybe another good offer will come along for him before too long. Dale Sveum...

MLB power rankings
1. Tigers: Forget the concern at closer. They were loaded last year, and they're a lot better with Victor Martinez, Torii Hunter and a full year of Anibal Sanchez. 2. Dodgers: Hanley Ramirez's injury could slow them out of the gate, but they're deep and...

Good luck trying to buy a World Series
There are some things that can be bought. A space flight. The chance to be cryogenically frozen. Or maybe just some of the simpler things, like a 12-cylinder Ferrari Testarossa, beachfront property in Turks and Caicos or one of the socks Curt...

Royals like way they are trending
The Royals expect James Shields to be a difference maker. But were they close enough to being a playoff team before they added him? That's the question about the deal in which the Royals sent future All-Star Wil Myers to the Rays. It's too early to...

Ho-hum greets opening day in Chicago
Chicago baseball returns Monday with a basis to be genuinely excited about possibilities of the future, but enough about Rosemont. As for citywide interest in the Cubs and Sox, the list of reasons to drop everything and pay attention is here somewhere...

How will Ryan soap opera play out?
Look out, below. The Rangers, who not so long ago were morphing into the Yankees, are coming down to Earth before our eyes. Barring some diplomacy worthy of a great secretary of state, Nolan Ryan is on his way out of the organization. He feels...

What's wrong with the media? Just ask Dwight Howard
I have some things on my mind. — The NFL combine is not one of them. I'd rather watch the wife's reality TV shows all night long and have her tell me about her day during the commercials. — I'm big on "Skyfall," but the fact it's not one...

Zack Greinke gets through anxious moments
PHOENIX — His face is shadowed under an oversized baseball cap. His gaze is often averted to the ceiling or floor. His handshake is distant, his voice is small, his sentences trail off into awkward silence. The first impression of Dodgers...Tags: Kansas City Royals, Cy Young Award, Depression, Anxiety, Zoloft (drug)

Twins biggest winners at winter meetings
Terry Ryan has nothing against free-agent outfielder Michael Bourn. Honest. But the general manager knows his Twins aren't going to compete again in the American League Central — Joe Mauer or no Joe Mauer — until they fix a starting rotation...

Quality pitchers at overpriced premium
Baseball analysts don't agree on a lot. But for months just about everyone has said that this class of free agents is weak, and that Zack Greinke is the best guy in it. In other words, it's a great time to be Greinke. But how about the team that signs...
