The Dodgers Got Better Overnight
Yes, despite some pretty horrendous defending by Manny Ramirez and a loss to the cellar-dwelling Diamondbacks, the Dodgers suddenly look a lot deeper and more formidable for the postseason, thanks to two last second moves that added significant pieces to their puzzle just before the deadline for players to be made eligible for postseason rosters.

And after 2010, Pima County will host no one, with the Rockies and Diamondbacks relocating to newer training facilities outside the area. So who's going to fill the void? If the area's Sports and Tourism Authority has anything to say about it, some teams from Japan will.

Webb's Season Is Done
Brandon Webb is scheduled to have surgery on his right, throwing shoulder today in Texas, an operation that will be performed by Keith Meister, the Rangers' team physician. The procedure will end his season after just one start: An Opening Day outing in which he felt shoulder stiffness and was placed on the Disabled List immediately thereafter.
