OK, I got my avatar, Pokey. He is my sewing room mascot. IO may change it to something more TYibey later. So when you post how do you know if there are new posts and can you just read the new posts?

I notice that the topics with the most recent posts rise to the top of the list, just like on WC.

CIV:I changed the settings so anyone can do that. But if it becomes a problem, I'll change it back.

J.R. You'll have to change the light bulb settings, too. I'm color blind; how about if you make them flash?

Sorry, CIV, I don't think that can be changed. But you will see this image next to any folders with new posts:

Click on it, and it will take you to the latest one.

Chad Durbin In Talks With The Indians

By Mike Axisa [February 24 at 3:59pm CST]

The Indians and free agent right-hander Chad Durbin are in talks according to SI.com's Jon Heyman (on Twitter), and a deal could happen within a day or two.

Earlier this week we heard that the Red Sox, Rays, Phillies, Rangers, and Mariners were all in pursuit of the 33-year-old, who indicated that he would accept a minor league deal from Philadelphia if his "hand is forced because there are no Major League offers on the table." A few weeks ago Durbin said that he hoped to join a contender, which doesn't really define the Indians.

Cleveland is seeking a starting pitcher, having been connected to both Kevin Millwood and Jeremy Bonderman in recent weeks. Although Durbin hasn't started a game since 2007, he has 75 career MLB starts to his credit and may wish to give it another shot. The bullpen is always a fallback.
