Jay Payton returned to camp today, but he's still feeling weak from having bronchitis. He played catch this morning and said he was out of breath. He also offered to infect the entire media group, but we politely declined his offer.

I'm heading to Jupiter. I'll post another entry after I get through the rush-hour traffic in West Palm, if I haven't completely lost my mind. Or if I'm not in a holding cell with no wireless.

Tike Redman is ill today and won't play.

Matt Wieters will be the designated hitter tomorrow and replace Ramon Hernandez behind the plate on Sunday.

Troy Patton will throw another bullpen session tomorrow.

George Sherrill threw a simulated game this morning. Aubrey Huff took some swings against Sherrill - his second straight day of facing live pitching.

Huff could appear in an exhibition game early next week. Sherrill should pitch on Monday.

Oh how I wish this game was on the radio!!

Also, what's the deal with Cantu? He signed a minor league deal didn't he? Wonder if he sticks around- ever since the WBC, I've always liked the guy.

I'll tell you something - I will miss Roberts. He is a hell of a human being and baseball player.
