Jerry Crasnick, of ESPN.com, reports Colorado Rockies SP Jeff Francis (shoulder) has made some alterations to his mechanics this offseason to take some strain off of his arm over time. He is taking a more direct line toward home plate and throwing less across his body. "This is not a blow-away type guy," manager Jim Tracy said. "He's an artist who just really knows how to pitch. From that standpoint, he doesn't have to go through a complete re-adjustment period. If anything, he just needs to refine himself command-wise. But nothing has really changed."

ProFootballWeekly.com reports it's too early to tell whether Oakland Raiders LB Kirk Morrison, a restricted free agent, will return with the team in 2010, according to head coach Tom Cable. "He's proven that he can (get the job done), and the question is: 'Are you where you want to be with all of these guys?' Not just Kirk," Cable said. "To single anyone out right now, it's probably way, way too early to do that. It's still a matter of seeing where we're at as a team and what's available to us as we try to get better."


Bears | Martz envisions Hester as a dominant slot receiver

Brad Biggs, of the Chicago Tribune, reports Chicago Bears offensive coordinator Mike Martz said during a radio interview that he envisions WR Devin Hester as a dominant slot receiver, a shift that could result in him being removed from the starting lineup. However, Martz could utilize plenty of three-wide receiver sets, which would provide Hester with ample opportunity to start. "Devin Hester in that role could just be stupid good, if that makes sense to you," Martz said. "What we can do with him inside, the matchups we can get with him on third corners, safeties and linebackers would be absolutely remarkable." Martz is cognizant of Hester's role on special teams and the value that he brings to the team as a returner and sees a way for him to excel in all areas. "I think it would be very difficult for him take every snap as a wide receiver and play at a high level on special teams, so we have to look at that," Martz said. "I think the role I have in mind for him would allow him to do both and do it at a high level."
