CHICAGO -- The Chicago Cubs took another step toward the future on Tuesday, designating second baseman Darwin Barney for assignment. Second baseman Emilio Bonifacio was activated from the disabled list to take Barneys place on the roster. Bonifacio had been out since June 13 because of strained right oblique. The 28-year-old Barney won a Gold Glove in the 2012, when his 141 consecutive games without an error tied a major league record. But he regressed noticeably at the plate and, with the recent promotion of Arismendy Alcantara and other infield prospects on the way, he no longer fit the master plan. "He got in a position here where playing time started to be scarce for him -- whether it was (Luis) Valbuena, whether it was Bonifacio or it was Alcantara -- and that necessitated the move," general manager Jed Hoyer said. "It certainly wasnt easy. He is such a great guy and a great competitor, and hopefully, through this process, we can get him to a place where he can help a contender and get a feel for a pennant race." Barney was hitting .230 with two home runs and 16 RBIs in 72 games. Last season he hit .208 with six home runs and 41 RBI in 141 games, all except two as a starter. The Cubs have 10 days to trade or place Barney on unconditional waivers. If he clears waivers, the team can release him. Earlier this month, veteran pitcher Jason Hammel and Jeff Samardzija were dealt to the Oakland Athletics highly regarded shortstop prospect Addison Russell. More moves were expected in the weeks ahead for the 40-57 Cubs. Also, pitcher Kyle Hendricks was recalled from Iowa and pitcher Zac Rosscup was optioned to the Triple-A club. Hendricks was the scheduled starter for the game against the San Diego Padres on Tuesday night. . Mike Babcock has turned to the Montreal Canadiens goalie over Roberto Luongo, who backed Canada to a gold medal in Vancouver in 2010, for Canadas final preliminary round game against the ailing Finns. . Bale has had a successful debut season in Spain, and Ancelotti appears ready to reward him with a starting role on Saturday. Ancelotti says "Gareth had some problems at the beginning (of the season) but when he found good physical condition he scored a lot of goals, he had a good impact on the team. http://www.bengalsrookiestore.com/Benga ... gs-Jersey/. Pospisil, whose season-ending goal is to improve his ATP Tour ranking enough to qualify for one of the 32 seedings at Januarys Australian Open, dominated Karlovic in 59 minutes. The world No. 40 never faced a break point and limited the big mans threatening ace count to a mere eight, while striking five key aces of his own. . The result was a game-winning, power-play goal. Chiasson snapped a third-period tie and lifted the Dallas Stars to a 3-2 victory on Monday night. . The Goldeyes (10-7) lost 4-1 to the Saltdogs (8-9) Sunday afternoon before 5,834 sizzling fans at Shaw Park. The loss drops Winnipegs record to 3-4 during this past weeks seven-game homestand.SAN DIEGO - The San Diego Chargers followed proper medical procedure after safety Jahleel Addae had two scary reactions following hits in Thursday nights 35-21 loss at Denver, coach Mike McCoy said.Addae immediately fell to the ground after a hit on the first play of the game. Late in the third quarter, he convulsed while remaining on his feet after a hit. He led with his left shoulder both times.Addae said after the game that he passed the NFLs concussion test, but the team announced Friday night that he was diagnosed with a concussion.Addae was not in the locker room when it was open to the media Friday afternoon. Chargers spokesman Bill Johnston said Addae was not available to the media because he went to get additional tests.Like every player regardless of what the injury is, you monitor them throughout the game, McCoy said before the team announced the concussion diagnosis. The first time he was checked out.Addaes reaction to the second hit caused a stir on Twitter. Some compared it to when Chargers guard Kris Dielman was staggered after sustaining a career-ending concussion in a game in 2011.I understand the concern, McCoy said. But there are a number of people that are out there that are doing their job and looking at all those things and evaluating players on the sideline. Same aas every game for every team.dddddddddddd Theres a ton of people there evaluating that.When asked to confirm there was no head trauma, McCoy reiterated that he had yet to meet with trainer James Collins. Ive said all Im going to say about the whole football team with where we are right now, said McCoy, who loathes discussing injuries.Asked what he saw in the two hits that affected Addae, McCoy said: I watched the film about three times. And I was at the game. I was watching the game. I was there. I was watching it.Asked if Addae will be able to play in the Chargers next game, at Miami a week from Sunday, McCoy said: Well play the healthiest 46.McCoy declined to give an update on rookie cornerback Jason Verrett, who left the game with a shoulder injury.Peyton Manning threw three touchdown passes to Emanuel Sanders and the Broncos held San Diego to just 61 yards rushing.McCoy said the Chargers have a lot to learn from a good football team.Two weeks after a five-game winning streak had them sharing the NFLs best record with Philadelphia and Dallas, the Chargers (5-3) have lost two straight and trail the Broncos by 1 1/2 games in the AFC West.___Follow Bernie Wilson on Twitter at http://twitter.com/berniewilson___Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP_NFL ' ' ' |
