Gregg Zaun is a 38 y/o switch hitting catcher, he's been with nine teams in 14 seasons and holds a lifetime BA of .251. In 1997 he won a World Series with the Florida Marlins as the backup to Charlie Johnson. Not only is he older by catcher's standards but he's only good for about 80-90 games and I don't want to go into a season relying on Santos for 70 games. While some see him as an inexpensive option,...

This week's injury report raises a question from yours truly: What's the deal? The Colts list every single nicked-up player, guys who have been playing with minor injuries for weeks, something they didn't do before. Don't know if the NFL is cracking down on these things and demanding the utmost in compliance or maybe another team complained about these guys. Anyway, here's the laundry list. INJURY...

It looks like the Colts have changed the way they use the report and are now listing some players who have injuries, but did not miss any practice time. This, along with a large number of players missing time makes for the longest Colts injury report I've ever seen. Unfortunately the list is not just long but star studded. Did Not Participate: Antoine Bethea (foot), Keyunta Dawson (knee), Aaron Francisco...

Here's the usual weekly gushing about the guys, well, most of it is gushing, the way they keep taking teams apart: * But we'll start with something critical. LB Philip Wheeler flagged for holding on the opening kickoff. He's been called a lot for penalties on special teams. * QB Peyton Manning shows he's ready with a couple precise throws to WR Reggie Wayne and TE Gijon Robinson. The latter sure looked...

As most have probably read, Colts safety Bob Sanders was listed as doubtful after limited participation in Friday's practice. He was limited on Wednesday and Friday, and didn't practice on Thursday, according to the report. Here's the injury report, my usual take, and the weekly Top 10.
