MESA, Ariz. -- Let's start by putting to rest any rumors about the cause of Kerry Wood's back spasms. Wood said flatly it had nothing to do with swinging a sledgehammer. ''I wasn't out there,'' he said, referring to the players' demolition of Cubs strength coach Tim Buss' old car Tuesday -- before they presented him with a new SUV. Wasn't out where? Hmmm.

Cubs & Tigers Talking Trade?

With the Cubs counting on Kerry Wood, maybe it isn’t the best idea to trade a proven relief pitcher. Inge makes your bench better, but he certainly isn’t a need.

The Mystery of Tom Downey

Clo posted 3/21/2008 from seamheads.com

I was combing through all of my old baseball cards when I came across something I had forgotten all about. I remembered my 1955 Al Kaline, near pristine. I remembered my Brooks Robinson collection, which includes every card he was on but the elusive 1957 and 1967 cards. I remembered my 1954 Jackie Robinson. I forgot my tobacco cards.
