moving on is for migratory birds.

1. Starting right-hander Dan Haren has switched from No. 24 to 15.

JACKASS. Though I bet you anything Billy had something to do with that. I bet he was like, hey Dan, 75 would look great on you. And Dan was like, I dunno, that's kinda weird, dude. SECOND OF ALL, I already own TWO HAREN SHIRTS WITH 24 ON THEM.

Jackass.

We are so over. For the fifth time.

2. Barry Zito wandered into his new spring training clubhouse carrying an Oakland Athletics duffel bag and plopped into Barry Bonds' chair. - First Day

3. The more radical elements of Barry Zito's new delivery appear headed for the dustbin after he and pitching coach Dave Righetti had a long chat Friday. Asked afterward if Zito will revert to something closer to his Oakland motion the next time he throws, Righetti said, "Probably." - A change of heart? Zito may use old style. Snerk. Listen, kid. We're not paying you $126 million to "express yourself" and "try new things."

There's a piece at the bottom of that page about Lowry being weirded out when someone created a Myspace page in his name and used it to rip Jason Schmidt. Oh, Noah. You don't even know the half of things people do in your name on ye olde internets. Don't be so quick to turn that color.

I think it's better than guys who become overconfident lazy asses.

I would agree, except I think he should have given the team more of a heads up on what he was planning to try, instead of springing it on them first day of camp, in front of the media and all. He's not so incredibly slow as to have not realized everyone's dissecting everything he does right now.

'Too candid' with reporters, my eye, though. Someone asked him if he was tinkering with his delivery because he was concerned about his peripherals from the last year and Zito just gave him a "I don't think about last year."

Isn't there one that says that Harden has a daughter named Morgana or something? That cracks me up.

**laughs** Yeah, I vaguely remember hearing something about that.

I think ESPN needs a Barry-Barry show this season. I would SO WATCH.

Man, I hope they don't! I might not be able to resist that.

"not so incredibly slow"

=P But mildly slow?
