• I have heard that there may not be a national interest in a Rockies/Diamondbacks series, but as a baseball fan, I cannot wait. Some of the stars of the future will be on display and these teams have gotten to know each other very well. John Donovan over at SI gives us the complete breakdown.

Suzyn Waldman’s teary report from the Yankees’ clubhouse late Monday night has been a source of amusement on the radio, on the Internet and in print across the continent.

To her, though, there is nothing funny about that.

Sorry to me, still funny. And there’s no crying in baseball.

• Page 2 weighs in with the Top 50 moments in LCS history. Zimmer charging Pedro made the list.

• One of the writers from Hardball Times enlightens us with his picks for MVP. Of course he has tons of stats to back up his selections. The HBT is the polar opposite of Joe Morgan. And Jimmy Rollins is not in the top 5.

• Vinny is back. The color blind QB who single handedly ruined almost a decade of Buccaneer football has signed with the Panthers.

• Miami Dolphins quarterback Trent Green flew to Kansas City for medical consultations and was optimistic about the recovery from his second severe concussion in 13 months.

“He went through some tests this morning, and he told me that it’s very encouraging,” coach Cam Cameron said Wednesday. “He’s in Kansas City, dealing with the people he dealt with last year so they can make a direct comparison.”

Trent was sitting in the waiting room working over the puzzles in the Highlights magazine and got most of them correct. Next up, Vince Young’s Wonderlic score.

• Tonight the Seminoles ranked #21 take on Wake Forest. Its a battle of players that actually attend class versus players that attend weight room.

• Looks like there is Hope in women’s soccer afterall. Hope Solo, (pic)whose remarks critical of coach Greg Ryan got her dismissed from the U.S. team at the Women’s World Cup, is on the roster for a three-game series with Mexico.
