The Minnesota Twins have added six prospects to their 40-man major league roster, including third baseman Danny Valencia and right-handed pitcher Deolis Guerra. Friday was the deadline for filling out the 40-man roster, for the purpose of protecting prospects in the "Rule 5" draft next month at the winter meetings.

Salvador Santana is mostly known as the son of GRAMMY Award-winning Carlos Santana and poet/lyricist Deborah Santana. But this 26 year-old San Franciscan is more than just the son of celebrated parents. Trained at Cal Arts, he's a gifted singer/songwriter who has a love for the keyboard that is his primary instrument.  

"Rookie Knowshon Moreno figures to get the bulk of the tailback work, with Peyton Hillis possibly getting an occasional carry...Rookie outside linebacker Robert Ayers was fined $5,000 for the major face-mask penalty he committed against Washington's Santana Moss on a punt return."

I've gone through the Indians' 40-man roster, and as we sit here today — you are sitting, aren't you? — there are only seven players who you can say with absolute certainty will be on the Indians' opening-day roster next year: Asdrubal Cabrera, Shin-Soo Choo, Travis Hafner, Jhonny Peralta, Grady Sizemore, Fausto Carmona and Kerry Wood. That's a remarkably low figure if you think about it. If the Indians had their way, they'd only have six, because they would love to trade Wood. A $10 million closer on a

ST JOHNSTONE defender Graham Gartland is hoping to win the nod for today's lunchtime match against Hearts at Tynecastle after making a quicker-than-expected recovery from the shoulder injury he picked up at Aberdeen a fortnight ago, writes Neil Robertson. However, it is the "cold shoulder" that the big Dubliner is offering to Thierry Henry after the French striker's sleight-of-hand cheating denied Ireland a place in next summer's World Cup Finals in South Africa. "I had an injection in the shoulder on

By the time Kidjo was six, she was already performing with her mother's theatre troupe; this experience giving her an early appreciation for music and dance. Continuing political conflicts in Benin led Kidjo to relocate to Paris around 1982, where she started out as a backup singer in local bands, before establishing her own band.
