Seems as though Mark Cuban may be putting his feelers out on the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Can this guy smell blood in the water, or what?
The Dodgers owner’s, Frank and Jamie McCourt, look like their headed for divorce. The future of the team could rest in the balance.
Cuban thinks he may be able to scoop up a majority piece of the team at a modest price. What’s so wrong with that? He’s done wonders for the NBA’s Dallas Mavericks.
Imagine if Cuban were able to buy the Dodgers… the team would be the toast of L.A.! Chavez Ravine would finally became be a hip place to hang out — from the 3rd to to the 7th inning. And maybe Cuban is able to hire the right personnel people and the team is able to shed Manny Ramirez and some other dead weight, like Ned Colletti.
Imagine…
Cuban getting ejected for arguing balls and strikes. And blasting umpires in post-game rants.

Former Chicago Cubs slugger/steroid user Sammy Sosa recently bleached his skin. The article says something about ‘rejuvenation’ but I don’t think anyone is buying that line.
It’s all over the web.
See a web article with a stunning side-by-side here. It’s new and old, Sammy style.
I’m disturbed by what I’ve seen. I can’t really fathom what would possess Sosa to undergo a procedure such as this.
Is he trying to fool a team into signing a light-skinned Dominican with tons of power?
Or he he angling to be the new Spanish-language spokesperson for Count Chocula cereal?
Either way, it seems as if his job prospects are looking *cough* good.

The Los Angeles Dodgers almost lost their prized waiver wire signing.
News from Nicaragua comes that Vicente Padilla had been wounded in a shooting but will survive. Thankfully, he was only grazed.
Whew.
So what’s Padilla doing? Blowing off some steam? He hasn’t been playing a week and he already has to take target practice? I don’t get it.
This Padilla’s a strange dude. He was finally “regarded as a disruptive clubhouse presence” by the Texas Rangers after throwing at one too many batters and starting one too many brawl. Michael Young had had enough!
Hopefully, Padilla shows off his scar in spring training. And then goes out and promptly plunks the first batter he faces.
