  Down to the Sweet 16

  
  
  
• 
  

  Can you call these teams ‘Cinderellas’ when there really isn’t a dominant team in college basketball?

  
  
  
• 
  

  The freshman “stars†are all home. Jabari Parker (Duke), Joel Embiid (Kansas), Andrew Wiggins (Kansas)

  
  
  
• 
  

  Ohio State, Duke, Cincinnati, Oklahoma, UMass all fall in 1st round

  
  
  
• 
  

  Wichita State, UNC, Villanova, Kansas, Syracuse can’t get out of 2nd round

  
  
  

There should be some good games this week.

  A couple of vet QBs changed teams last week.

  
  
  
• 
  

  Browns signed a veteran OL from the Seahawks on Monday.

  
  
  
• 
  

  Team seemed to be absent from QB Pro Days (Farmer was there for Bortles). Big deal or no?

  
  
  
• 
  

  Matt Schaub traded to Oakland for 6th rd pick.

  
  
  
• 
  

  Michael Vick signed with NY Jets.

  
  
  
• 
  

  Mark Sanchez released by Jets. Looks like he’ll sign with Philly, though the Browns were rumored to be interested.

  
  
  

• 
  
• 
  

  Team ended contract discussions with Justin Masterson. He was looking for $17M/yr range. Indians were offering closer to $12M.

  
  
  
• 
  

  That’s a lot for a guy who hasn’t won 15 games in a season. But he is still our top pitcher and an innings eater.

  
  
  
• 
  

  Michael Bourn will start the season on the DL with his hamstring injury.

  
  
  
• 
  

  Team told Aaron Harang he will not make the big league roster. He was signed to minor league deal and given a shot to compete for 5th starter.

  
  
  
• 
  

  Season opener is Monday, March 31st on the road at Oakland. Home Opener is Friday April 4th against Minnesota.

  
  
  
• 
  

  Tribe was 92-70 last year after winning their last 10 games in a row and going 21-6 in September. They can’t repeat that.

  
  
  
• 
  

  Key departures: Ubaldo Jimenez, Scott Kazmir, Chris Perez, ??

  Key additions:

    John Axford

    
    
    
  • 
    

    David Murphy (batting .179 in Spring) – will he platoon with Ryan Rayburn in RF?
