Francis was said to have a deal with the Reds according to MLB.com. I was hoping the Rox would bring him back for depth.
If Alanna Rizzo’s tweets wasn’t spammed, I am saddened to see her leave Root Sports as she is going over to join the MLB Network staff. I always watch MLBN because they are usually unbiased. Rizzo will only make the MLBN better which softens the blow of her leaving Root. At least Cowboy will still be around.

Alanna is pretty good. Hopefully she adds more Rockies talk to the MLBN! Who will be the new eye candy on Root?
Alanna is the real deal and the complete package. I saw her absolutely maul (verbally of course) a Giants fan in the San Diego airport for suggesting that the Rockies were out of it in early September 2010. Eye candy, yes but she is also very skilled, personable and knowledgeable. I am really going to miss her at Coors Field and on Rockies broadcasts. But I also know she is very deserving of the national exposure and I look forward to watching her on MLB Network. Does anybody know when she will first appear?
I’m working on a story about this right now to post tonight I’m hoping.
Sorry guys, I still miss Charissa Thompson. Now there was “eye candy” that really knows how to ask the right questions. Saw here a lot on the Big Ten Network, then Versus, and I hear she is now on ESPN. Here’s hopin Alanna has as fruitful a career.
Nah, I thought Alanna was way better than Carissa.
By the way, aren’t we supposed to be talking about Jeff Francis here? Ha-ha!
Prog – all we get is more Marc Stout! Haha
Too bad Alanna’s leaving us. Charissa was beautiful, but I’d often find myself cringing hoping that she didn’t make a fool of herself with her lack of baseball knowledge. Alanna was smart and had that slightly tomboyish yet still attractive girl next door quality …
Not spam. It was officially announced.
anyone watch those fantasy camp videos? It looks to me like Larry Walker could still play, he hasn’t aged at all! I might have to sign up for that next year, these are the things I would do at fantasy camp:
1. Get Larry Walker’s autograph
2. Blow people away with my 70 mph fastball
3. Punch George Frazier in the face
4. Tell EYJ that I have his back in the chatrooms
5. Talk to Larry Walker
