Yep, it's true. I heard he's staying in AZ for "extended spring training", whatever that is. Wade Miller will start off the season as the 5th starter.

Not so fast there, CubbieFanboy.......

There's a lot of time left between now and next Monday for Prior to hurt himself again. Never doubt his magical powers to almost instantaneously become injured.

I guess Kenny Roger's successful surgery to remove a blood clot in his pitching arm will keep him out 6-8 weeks.

Well, looks like it may be 12-16 weeks.
I hope he will be able to visit and advise those kids while he's out.

Who needs pitching when you got offense? The Cubs are beating up on some minor league team...er, I mean the Mariners, in Las Vegas. The offense is going so well tonight there was even a broken bat HR.

I live for spring training.
