Catching Up From the Weekend

Well, now that my beloved Kentucky Wildcats are out of the NCAA Tournament, it's time to focus all my attention on the baseball season. (Props to my alma mater Dayton Flyers making the NIT Final Four, but come on, it's the NIT).

Let's catch up on a few important stories from the weekend:

-A.J. Pollock is out 3 months after having elbow surgery. He wasn't going to be coming back to South Bend anyhow, but with him being out, it may bump up someone slated for the Silver Hawks.

-Nick Piecoro also did a piece on Marc Krauss late last week. You can read it here.

-Mark Haley's latest blog entry discusses his family coming to visit and drug testing in Spring Training. How would you like to pee in a cup with somebody watching?

-Finally, Daniel Vasquez has been released by the Diamondbacks. Vasquez pitched for South Bend last year, going 4-1 with a 4.57 ERA. However, he tested positive for a performance enhancing drug in the offseason, and was going to be suspended 50 games to begin this year anyhow.

I'll have more later today with Pete's last report from Spring Training.
