Sweeney Will Try To Stay Healthy
After being held out of the Royals' first four Spring Training games, Mike Sweeney went 1-for-3 in his Cactus League debut on Monday. Manager Buddy Bell plans to regulate Sweeney's playing time in Spring Training so as to keep his captain healthy for Opening Day. Sweeney, who played in just 60 games last season because of a bulging disk in his back, is scheduled to appear in Wednesday's "B" game against the Rangers and hopes to get 40-50 Spring Training at-bats this spring "in a perfect world."
