Royals Manager Highlight Visit Down Option

Janssen, 30, appeared in 55 games last season, recording a 6-0 record with a 2.26 earned-run average and two saves. He became only the third Blue Jays pitcher, and first since Dennis Lamp (11-0) and Tom Filer (7-0) in 1985 to win at least six games without a loss.

 

Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago White Sox on Tuesday signed free- agent outfielder Kosuke Fukudome to one-year contract with a club option for the 2013 season. Under terms of the deal, Fukudome will receive $500,000 in 2012, while the Sox hold a $3.5-millon option for 2013, including a $500,000 buyout.

 

"Kosuke adds to our outfield depth and gives [manager] Robin [Ventura] another left-handed bat to mix into the lineup based on matchups," said White Sox assistant general manager Rick Hahn in a statement. "He can play center field and right and provides flexibility to our roster."

 

Prior to his MLB career, Fukudome played nine seasons with Chunichi of the Japanese Central League (1999-2007).

 

Kansas City, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Kansas City Royals have picked up the option on manager Ned Yost's contract for 2013. Terms were not disclosed.

 

Yost was poised to guide the Brewers to a playoff appearance in 2008 before he was fired with 12 games remaining in the regular season. Milwaukee was on the verge of a collapse when Yost was dismissed, then eventually captured the NL wild card before bowing out to the eventual World Series champion Phillies in four games in the Division Series.

 

Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - There was one last major order of business before some baseball teams open camp on Sunday and that was to find a home for Cuban outfielder Yoenis Cespedes. Well, that has been taken care of, albeit by a team nobody expected, the Oakland Athletics.

 

In all, Oakland received a total of 10 prospects in those deals, as the team looked toward the future with the hopes of competing by the time they open a new ballpark, hopefully by 2015. That's still not a lock, though.

 

The thought, of course, is that a stadium will be opening just as his deal is expiring and the team will be coming together as a contender, making the A's all that more enticing.

 

Cespedes had been a hot topic all winter, but most felt it was a fait accompli that he would eventually land with the Miami Marlins. The Marlins offered the same amount of money as the A's, but spread it over six years rather than the four in Oakland.

Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.

The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.

The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.

Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
