Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


I'm going to be in Arizona from Feb 27 to March 2 to watch a couple Spring Training games. Can someone tell me if the players who will be playing in the WBC will be with their MLB teams during that time? Also, where can I find rosters for the WBC teams? Finally, any suggestions on where to stay? Thanks

I think the WBC players leave right after that...

… but I don’t think anything has been officially announced yet.

Best Western Tempe by Arizona Mills Mall is a BEST BUY

Scottsdale is beautiful but way too pricey. Tempe is great and only 10 miles from HoHoKam
