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.

unlike coughcoughHustoncoughcough.

lol.

I know that in the early ST images of Huston from '05, he wasn't wearing 20. He was wearing one of those high ass numbers they give kids fresh out of the gate, and then he got 20 at some point during ST, I think. I know he wore 25 in college, and I don't think 25 was assigned to any regular A's in '05. That makes it easier for me to blame the 20 thing on Billy, though it's always possible that my memory is faulty and there was a 25. I know for sure that 21-24 were taken, if 25 was taken too, maybe Huston just went with the closest number to his college number without thinking? But yeah, Mulder's memory wasn't even cold yet :(

At the beginning of ST 05, Kiko Calero had #20. Talk about wanting to erase Mulder's memory fast, huh?

Ahahaha. Well. Kiko wore 40 with the Cards, and that was taken, so maybe his first instinct was to halve his number, and he had nooooooo cluuuuue the number had been Mulder's and Beane never said a word to him, and... lol. Okay, probably not.
