Dice K didnt do strength program

[Goodfellas]

The most surprising thing was Daisuke Matsuzaka's lack of conditioning, and that he didn't feel he had to do any of the shoulder strengthening program all Red Sox pitchers are on. According to a major league source, Matsuzaka appeared convinced that a Japanese shoulder is different from an American shoulder. Head-scratcher. In the end, he realized it wasn't true. One thing the Sox have him convinced of now: He will be on the program next offseason.

Amare Stoudemire's camp has not heard from any other NBA team about the possibility of acquiring him or any interest in securing his future with a contract extension. Stoudemire's agent, Charles Grantham, said he would like to hear a commitment from one team in particular - the Suns. The commitment Stoudemire is seeking from the Suns is more than just being told he won't be traded. He wants a contract extension when he is eligible later this summer. Grantham considers Stoudemire a maximum-salary player worth an extension averaging more than $20 million per season. (Arizona Republic)
