Given a chance, the kids showed promise
  In Ned Colletti's six years as the Dodgers' general manager, the organization has avoided the biggest free agent names, not even bothering to negotiate with players who signed massive long-term contracts. Instead, the Dodgers focused on one- to three-year contracts to stay with the salary restraints imposed by ownership.They didn't pursue Cliff Lee or CC Sabathia to give the rotation a Matt Forte Authentic Jersey proven ace. They didn't go after Carl Crawford or Adam Dunn to shore up Randall Cobb Jersey Authentic the lineup.When they did spend money, it was two years for Andruw Jones, three years for Jason Schmidt, two years for Manny Ramirez, three years for Juan Uribe. All of those contracts proved a disaster, but at least they were relatively short. The reviews are  mixed, but mostly negative, on the five-year contract they awarded Juan Pierre.Adding a lot of medium-priced parts to the roster hasn't worked, especially the last two years, so Authentic New England Patriots Albert Haynesworth Jersey the focus appears to be shifting this offseason.In prior years, Andre Ethier and Matt Kemp had to wait their turn as Randall Cobb Authentic Jersey veterans Jose Cruz Jr., Luis Gonzalez, Kenny Lofton, Jones and Pierre received more playing time in the outfield.This year, injuries and poor performance forced the Dodgers to trust their youth.Power-hitting prospect Jerry Sands was called up in late April, far earlier than expected, New England Patriots Albert Haynesworth Authentic Jersey and it was probably too soon. The Dodgers trusted speed demon Dee Gordon enough to bring him to the majors in June, also earlier than planned, then traded Rafael Furcal in late July to make permanent room for Gordon at shortstop.When the bullpen was devastated by injuries to Jonathan Broxton, Hong-Chih Kuo and Vicente Padilla, the Dodgers were forced to go young on the roster.They could have used Rubby De La Rosa, Javy Guerra, Josh Lindblom, Kenley Jansen and Scott Elbert in the early part of games while giving save chances to Matt Guerrier and Mike MacDougal.Instead, De La Authentic Randall Cobb Jersey Rosa saved games before moving to the rotation, Guerra became the closer, Jansen evolved into a lights-out setup man, and Elbert was used late in games to retire the toughest opposing lefties.It didn't always work. There certainly were learning curves and struggles for the kids, especially early. But by the end of the year, there were supporting pieces around MVP candidate Kemp and Cy Young front-runner Clayton Kershaw, and the Dodgers improved dramatically to finish 82-79 and in third place New England Patriots Albert Haynesworth Jersey in the NL West.Now the offseason arrives, and around 45 million is coming off the payroll from free agents currently on the roster and disabled list, or already traded away. Additional dead money from the Pierre and Schmidt contracts finally comes off the books.Even more money can be saved if reliever Kuo is non-tendered, or if James Loney is traded.Many raises are coming, though. Kemp and Kershaw will get massive pay hikes. Ethier will get a healthy raise, and so will Loney if he stays.Other players on multiyear contracts -- such as Uribe, Guerrier and Ted Lilly -- took less money in the first year to balance the 2011 budget, so they'll be making more in 2012.Colletti was told by owner Frank McCourt what his budget range will be, and it includes enough to re-sign the team's stars and to compete with other teams for a star on the free agent market. Colletti intimated during the season's final week that he'd like to pursue a big-time run producer for the lineup.If Colletti gets his wish, the Dodgers will spend big -- maybe even nine figures big -- on a big bopper this offseason.That cost would force him to go young and cheap on other parts of the roster.But if the second half of this season is any indication, that's not a bad thing.

  Wright, Collins envision sunny future
  David Wright stood next to Terry Collins in the dugout as the Mets played out the final game of the season. And he had Matt Forte Jersey a message for the first-year manager.David Wright told me on the bench, 'It will get better,' Collins said. And I believe him. I truly, truly believe him. We get Ike Davis back and Daniel Murphy and Jason Bay, it's going to be a different-looking team, and I'm looking forward to it.Collins made it through his first season at the helm with the Mets struggling to a 77-85 record. However, he still drew accolades for keeping the team together through a horrific series of devastating injuries as well as the trades that sent away two key players, Carlos Beltran and Francisco Rodriguez.The Mets were never contenders for anything but a wild card, but they did stay in the race and Randall Cobb Jersey hung around .500 most of the year, which is a credit to Collins, as well as the performance of those traded players before they departed.Wright, who has endured a long, tough tenure as the face of the franchise -- and he might be the last one left if Jose Reyes isn't brought back as he enters free agency -- insisted he was not just cheering Collins up.I mean it, I think there's a lot of optimism moving forward, Wright said. We had some young players come up this year and really make a name for themselves. cheap nfl jerseys free shipping I think that you like the feeling that's in this clubhouse every day because you do have younger players that are bringing that energy, that want to go out there and prove something. That's obviously the right attitude to have.Everybody in here, including myself, is looking forward to some rest. But pretty soon it'll be exciting, get ready to go down to Port St. Lucie. We're taking strides in the right direction, and I'm excited to see where this thing goes.The Mets' hopes Authentic Matt Forte Jersey were buoyed in the final days by a federal judge's verdict that made the ownership group open to a much smaller -- although still considerable -- lawsuit in regards to the Bernie Madoff Ponzi scheme. Whether that means Reyes comes back will be the first true Green Bay Packers Randall Cobb Jersey test. But there is plenty of other work to be done.Healing might be the most important task with Johan Santana finishing out his season of rehabilitation with appearances in the instructional league. Davis avoided surgery, and he expects to be ready for spring training, although that remains a hopeful rather than a sure thing.Collins said he believes Reyes will be back, which is obviously a key, but the team has prepared for a plan B, acclimating Ruben Tejada to the big leagues and to shortstop.Still, talking about this season, what he got from the team, reduced Collins to tears.That's why I told the guys inside, to overcome the adversity they faced all summer long, and accomplish, regardless of wins and losses, to accomplish that, there's energy, that they played the game, Collins said. Yeah, there were nights we got knocked around, but for the most part we competed, 162 times, and that's all I can ever ask of anybody.

 Cardinals vs. Brewers: Cardinals Take 2-1 NLCS Lead over Brewers
  The first four hitters crossed home plate for the Cardinals in Game 3 of the NLCS. That was all they would get all game, and that was all they would need all game.It was expected to be a pitchers duel with both teams putting their aces on the bump. It did become one—once the aces sat down.In fact, the Cardinals, who had the most blown saves of any team but the Washington Nationals this year, were perfect in four innings, not allowing a base runner after Cards ace Chris Carpenter was sent to the showers after only five innings.The Brewers used three different relievers as well, and while they did surrender base runners, they didn't surrender any runs. In Brian Orakpo Authentic Jersey all, the Cardinals stranded nine runners in the game.The Cardinals offense was led by two heroes in particular: Albert Pujols (of course) and David Freese, who has been having a pretty tremendous postseason in his own right. Pujols hit an RBI Aaron Curry Authentic Jersey double, then scored. Chris Johnson Jersey Authentic His Andre Johnson Jersey Authentic next at-bat, hefollowed up with a single. After that, the Brewers Authentic Andre Johnson Jersey just stopped pitching to him, intentionally walking him in his next two trips to the plate.Pujols has now reached in eight of Dallas Clark Authentic Jersey his last nine plate appearances. He has an utterly ridiculous .636 BA for the series, along with a .692 OBP, a 1.273 slugging percentage and an outright obscene 1.985 OPS for the NLCS.Freese was 3-for-5 with a double. Compared Andre Johnson Authentic Jersey to Pujols, his numbers are almost pedestrian, as ridiculous as they are. Freese is "only" hitting .500 in the NLCS, with a paltry .538 OBP Authentic Chris Johnson Jersey and a Authentic Aaron Curry Jersey 1.167 slugging percentage. His "paltry" OPS of 1.705 is 180 points behind PujolsHow will the series endHow will the series endCardinals in 548.8%Cardinals in 637.4%Cardinals in 75.7%Brewers in 78.1%Brewers in 60.0%Total votes: 123Pujols' OPS stands as the highest in NLCS history at present. Freese's is "only" the eighth best.Pujols continued to stockpile his NLCS records, scoring his 24th run, 24th RBI, 75th base and tying Fred McGriff with his eighth double. Pujols also tied Chipper Jones for the second most hits. Pujols now has the NLCS record in home runs, RBI, runs, total bases and doubles. With the two IBBs, he also is now third in NLCS history in walks.If Chris Johnson Authentic Jersey the Brewers have any hope, it is in the fact they've held the Cardinals other big bats, Matt Holliday and Brian Orakpo Jersey Authentic Lance Berkman, in check. Holliday struck out twice with two outs and runners on first and second.The other noteworthy thing worth mentioning is that Jason Motte is starting to look like a reliable closer for the Cardinals, as he shut down the Brewers for four outs—three of which cheap nfl jerseys china were strikeouts.The next pitching matchup will see the Cardinals sending Kyle Lohse to square off against Randy Wolf. Wolf was horrible in his previous postseason start, lasting just three innings and giving up eight hits and seven runs. His ERA against the Red Birds is 5.34.Lohse wasn't much better in his start against Philadelphia, lasting 5.1 innings and yielding six runs—five earned. He does have a 2.37 ERA against the Brewers, though.With a 2-1 series lead and the pitching advantage in the next game, the Cardinals could take a commanding 3-1 series lead tomorrow. After tonight's battle of aces went topsy-turvy, Dallas Clark Jersey Authentic though, there's no telling what will happen.

  Boston Red Sox: Ben Cherington Must Fix Old Problems to Succeed as GM
  With the news that Theo Epstein is leaving his job as the Boston Red Sox general manager to take the same position with the Chicago Cubs, Boston fans immediately began wondering who would replace their wunderkind GM.Well, it seems like we have a definitive answer to that question.Tim Brown of Yahoo! Authentic Dallas Clark Jersey Sports is reporting that Ben Cherington is going to be the man for the job.Cherington is the man who Scott Lauber of the Boston Globe, as well as Aaron Curry Jersey Authentic other Authentic Brian Orakpo Jersey sources close to the situation, expected would be the man to take the job.As his first order of business, Cherington needs Albert Haynesworth Jersey to get rid of the people who are now smearing the Red Sox, past and present.Ben Hohler of the Boston Globe reported that Jon Lester, Josh Beckett and John Lackey were eating chicken and drinking beer in the Boston clubhouse during games when the Red Sox were going through their collapse.Whether or not this is a rare occurrence depends on who you ask.That same article reported that Terry Francona's tumultuous personal life and alleged drug addiction also got in the way of his ability to successfully lead the team.I don't know Francona, so I am not even going to begin to speculate on that. That is none of my business and I will have no problem if I never hear another word on the subject.The same is more or less true with Lester, Beckett and Lackey. I don't know how rare it is to drink beer during a major league game, but I do know that starting pitchers are on their own on days that they don't start.We may never know how true any of these reports are. But true or not, someone is leaking this information out and Cherington needs to get rid of those responsible.If that doesn't happen, no free agent will ever want to go to Boston. Why would you want to go to a team if you can't even trust that members of that organization aren't going to try to smear you?Before Cherington even thinks about what players he wants to keep, get rid of, or bring in, he needs to handle this problem.If he doesn't, the problems in Boston aren't going to get any better.

 PHILADELPHIA -- The Phillies hope Ryan Howard can be back in their lineup in April.Howard had surgery Wednesday morning in Baltimore to repair a completely torn Achilles tendon in his left leg. Foot and ankle specialist Mark Myerson performed the surgery and also administered a PRP injection. The Phillies said the surgery was successful, and general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said in a statement, "It's going to be five to six months from the surgery until he can play at his accustomed level." Howard tore the Achilles making the final out Friday in Game 5 of the National League Division Series. BenJarvus Green-Ellis Authentic Jersey "A lot depends on how he recovers," Amaro said. "The start of the season could be impacted, but I still hope he makes his first at-bat of the season." The Phillies said Howard will be immobilized one to two weeks, and could begin weight bearing and strength in about a month, but that depends on his recovery.

  Leyland sympathizes with 'banged up' media
             DETROIT -- The ailments of Magglio Ordonez, Delmon Young and Victor Martinez are obvious but, Detroit manager Jim Leyland was asked, how about some of the other limited Tigers?Such as Alex Avila, the durable catcher whose physical woes are more subtly reflected in his uncharacteristic 2-for-29 postseason batting line?"He's pretty well banged up," Leyland said of the All-Star Authentic Brian Urlacher Jersey catcher, who caught 133 regular-season games while batting .295 with 19 homers and 82 RBIs. "His knee was swelling up pretty good a while ago. Trainers are doing the best they can to take care of that. "You talk about tough ... what you're seeing is what these guys are all about. It's hard for the average person to understand what these guys are going through. Everybody is banged up."Leyland then characteristically included the group of people sitting in his audience."You guys are probably all banged up," he said, canvassing the faces of reporters. "You've been traveling all over the place.  You're probably tired. I hope you're getting overtime. I'm serious. It's a strain on you."If you're traveling and following the team and getting back and trying to get a plane back, I respect the [heck] out of that."Such a segue was so typically Leyland. He is everyman in big league threads, that English "D" on his chest unable to affect his personality. Leyland is so humble, his autographed plaque is the lowest-priced at $50 in a team store display of Tigers memorabilia; even Joel Zumaya's plaque is Asante Samuel Jersey priced at $65, and he hasn't thrown a pitch since June 2010.And he has an uncanny capacity for looking at and evaluating matters from the perspective of fans in the stands or reporters behind their computers."I'm tired. I feel great, but I'm tired. I would be lying if I said I wasn't," said Leyland. "I go from decaf to regular about right now."

  Holliday in no Aaron Rodgers Authentic Jersey danger of being spelled by Craig
                 ST. LOUIS -- The Brewers won the National League Central with 96 wins, and the Cardinals Brian Urlacher Jersey claimed the Wild Card with 90 wins. Both are in the NL Championship Series. Based on Wednesday's big non-postseason news, the division is on the verge of getting even stronger. Theo Epstein, the architect of two World Series titles with the Red Sox, is reportedly about to sign a five-year deal to run the Cubs' baseball operations."All jobs have their challenges, and all divisions have their own challenges," Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak said prior to Wednesday's NLCS Game 3. "But when you look at the landscape of the Central, it's obviously changing. New ownership in Chicago. Potential new ownership in Houston. Both are major markets. If you compared it to say, maybe 10 years ago, the look would be different."Epstein is a proven winner and one of the highest profile executives in the game."When you look at that type of hire, they're obviously changing their strategy and how they're going about it," Mozeliak said. "Not knowing what they're going to do or how they're going to attack it doesn't necessarily mean instant success for 2012, but they surely are looking at this long term and for that leadership."Under Epstein's watch, the Red Sox ended an 86-year World Series drought when they won the title in 2004. The Cubs, of course, are looking to put to rest wholesale jerseys a "curse" that has lasted more than 100 years. "There is unique history in the sense of what [Epstein Authentic BenJarvus Green-Ellis Jersey had] in Boston," Mozeliak said. "It had been a while since they had success, especially to the level that he brought them to. Obviously, Chicago is trying to replicate that. But I don't want to speak for them."                                              Holliday in no danger of being spelled by Craig                ST. LOUIS -- Matt Holliday's power appears to be sapped a bit since his latest return from a right hand injury, but Cardinals manager Tony La Russa is convinced that his cleanup hitter is healthy and fully effective. So there's just about no chance of seeing Holliday take Authentic Asante Samuel Jersey a seat, unless his injury begins hampering him again.Holliday is 5-for-16 (.313) in the playoffs with a .368 on-base percentage, but has no extra-base hits. La Russa was asked Wednesday whether Allen Craig might get a start in place of Holliday, but the manager said there's very little chance."I think just the fact that you're asking that question is a heck of a compliment to what Allen did this year and what he showed last year," La Russa said. "If you're talking about Holliday, you're talking about one of the best hitters in either league, and if he's healthy, Craig has got a lot of learning to be at the same level."Same thing with Lance [Berkman].  He could play right field instead of Lance, but when those two guys are there, that's why you work so hard sometimes to get Craig playing time at other positions, because he can be very productive.  But both guys being healthy, I mean, it's not a tough call.  Allen is not Matt yet."                                              Musial, fellow Cards Hall of Famers honored                ST. LOUIS -- Threatening weather deprived Cardinals fans of a potential appearance by the Budweiser Clydesdales on Wednesday night. Given the consolation prize, it's fair to say that almost none of them were disappointed.The greatest Cardinal of them all, Stan Musial, made an appearance at Busch Stadium instead. Musial joined fellow Hall of Famers Lou Brock, Bob Gibson and Red Schoendienst on the field before the first pitch of Game 3 of the National League Championship Series.Jeff Suppan, a hero of the Cards' wins in the 2004 and '06 NLCSs, threw a ceremonial first pitch to Adam Wainwright, then the Hall of Famers were honored. Brock, Gibson and Schoendienst took the field at home plate. Then Musial was brought in on a golf cart from the right-field corner, a surprise to many in attendance, and of course was greeted with a massive ovation.Musial, who turns 91 in November, is the franchise's greatest player and the holder of nearly every major Cardinals batting record. He batted .331 with a .417 on-base percentage, Authentic Aaron Rodgers Jersey a .559 slugging percentage, 475 home runs and 1951 RBIs in 3,026 games, every one of them with the Cardinals.                                              Suppan honored to throw out first pitch                ST. LOUIS -- It was about 10 days ago that the Cardinals reached out to former postseason hero Jeff Suppan, saying they'd love to have him throw out the ceremonial first pitch if they made it to the National League Championship Series.Suppan obliged and didn't back down Brian Urlacher Authentic Jersey -- even though St. Louis' opponent represented a bit of an awkward situation.See, Cards and Brewers fans tend to have two very drastic viewpoints of Suppan.Cards fans, for the most part, love him -- he pitched three solid years in St. Louis, culminating in a 2006 season when Aaron Rodgers Jersey he was named the NLCS Most Valuable Player and helped win a World Series. Brewers fans? Not so much. Suppan signed a four-year, $42 million contract with Milwaukee in '07, then posted a 29-36 record and a 5.08 ERA before being released three months into the 2010 season.Regardless, Suppan -- appropriately wearing a red- and blue-striped long-sleeve shirt -- took the mound before the start of Game 3 of the NLCS at Busch Stadium on Wednesday night. He called the experience "weird, but it's not in a bad way."It was just one of those things where, when I ran out to the mound, I can say hello to both teams," Suppan said with a smile."For me, it was a great honor to come out and throw the first pitch," he added. "I was hoping to throw a strike, but I think it was up and away."Suppan, who said he still feels a "very strong connection" to St. Louis, went 138-143 with a 4.69 Asante Samuel Authentic Jersey ERA while pitching for six different organizations in 16 seasons in the big leagues. After being released by the Brewers, he re-signed with the Cardinals and posted a 3.84 ERA in 70 1/3 innings to close out last season.This year, he swallowed his pride and spent the entire 2011 campaign with the Royals' Triple-A squad in Omaha -- one he proudly points out won the Pacific Coast League championship -- going 11-8 with a 4.78 ERA in 28 games (27 starts).Somehow, the 36-year-old right-hander wants to keep pitching."I enjoy playing; I enjoy pitching," Suppan said. "I feel like I was healthy this year, and I was able to go out and make some starts and help the team. ... I'm just going to get ready for next year, and whatever happens, I'd like to go to Spring Training, hopefully have a chance to make a team. So, we'll see."                                              Brewers own NL's best mark at current Busch                ST. LOUIS -- The Brewers have scuffled, relatively, away from Miller Park this year. But don't try to convince Cardinals manager Tony La Russa that they'll be any kind of pushover for Games 3-5 of the National League Championship Series.Asked about such a home-road disparity, La Russa noted an interesting fact: No divisional foe has had more success at the current Busch Stadium the Brewers. In fact, no other NL Central team even has a winning Anquan Boldin Jersey Authentic record in the ballpark, while Milwaukee is 28-24.The next-best record within the division belongs to the Cubs, who are 24-27. Among NL teams, only Anquan Boldin Authentic Jersey the Brewers, Phillies (15-11) and Giants (10-9) have winning marks over the six seasons at the current park."Stats are weird," La Russa said. "They have a tremendous amount of confidence playing at home.  They struggle some on the road.  But the thing that brings us back into reality here is, since the ballpark opened in 2006, Milwaukee has probably had more success, or as much as maybe Philadelphia, playing here.  So they have confidence they can play in our ballpark.  "I even think that potential edge for us is not something we should count on.  Just going to have to play the game."                                              Brown claimed off waivers by Colorado                ST. LOUIS --  The Cardinals' decision to add Lance Lynn to the roster for the National League Championship Series has already paid dividends. However, it has also come at a cost.The Rockies claimed Andrew Brown off waivers on Wednesday, three days after the Cardinals designated him for assignment. In order to activate Lynn from the 60-day disabled list, St. Louis had to make room on the 40-man roster. The casualty was Brown, who now goes to the Colorado organization.Brown, 27, appeared in 11 games for the Cards in 2011, going 4-for-22 with a double, three RBIs, no walks BenJarvus Green-Ellis Jersey and eight strikeouts. He was an 18th-round Draft pick in '07. The first baseman/outfielder hit .284 with a .382 on-base percentage, a .501 slugging percentage, 20 home runs and 73 RBIs at Triple-A Memphis this year.                                              Batting practice bagged, clubs hit indoors                ST. LOUIS -- Though the decision no doubt came as a disappointment to some fans, batting practice was not held on the field at Busch Stadium prior to Wednesday's Game 3 of the National League Championship Series. With rain impending, the choice was made in the name of fairness, according to Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak.Instead, both the Cardinals and Brewers hit indoors. The hope was to avoid a situation where one team got to hit on the field and the other did not."We have our fingers crossed that we can get this game played on Authentic Anquan Boldin Jersey time, and we can play," Mozeliak said."The batting practice decision is based on if it started raining, it wouldn't be fair for one club over the other. Both have cages. So both can hit in cages."
