THE JOYS OF SPRING TRAINING inevitably come to an end each year. Most ballplayers head back to their respective cities for Opening Day while others are sent down to the minors or simply released, cut, dumped, dropped, axed or whatever you want to call it. It's a little depressing, but some will get promoted in time, some will get picked up by another team, and some will hang up their spikes and call it a career. Some of the names this year: Gary Sheffield, Geoff Jenkins, Brad Wilkerson, Eric Gagne, Ron Villone, Mike Lamb, Marcus Giles, Luke Hochevar, David Price, Jose Valentin, Wily Mo Pena, David Newhan, Jerry Owens and Adam Melhuse.
