I just read today that apparently they're planning to move the alleys in LF and RF at the K back to 390 feet.

Finally something to look forward to after the miserable Chiefs season.

Sweet, I can't wait for this season to start. We're certainly not going to contend for the division this year, but I definitely think we'll be competitive and can finish ahead of either Minny or Chicago.
One player I'll be watching extra close is Banny. If he can follow-up last season with another strong year, it will really solidify this rotation for the future. |

Read that they are going to try Teahen in left field, and Guillen will supposedly own the right field job.
They also signed a guy, Brian Lawrence, who's a right handed starter formerly of the Padres, had arm surgery and missed most of last season with the Mets. Don't know anything about him, but he figured in their rotation for about 4 seasons and his career ERA is 4.19. Might be able to help. |

I'll be interested to see if Billy Butler and Alex Gordon can pick-up where they finished last year.

Verdict is still out IMO. We definately need Billy Butler and Alex Gordon to develop into stars. We still finished in last place in 07.

Anyone know anything about Chin-hui Tsao? I've read several places that he might be a surprise guy to make the roster. Apparently his numbers were off the charts, but he's been battling injuries the past couple of years.

Guillen is a natural right fielder, Teahen doesnt have a position. Makes more sense to put the guy making more jack in his natural position.
