	Mesa Southwest Museum Heritage Wall of Mesa's History (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The Mesa colonists, who organized a school district soon after their arrival in 1878, first educated their children in a series of temporary buildings, one of which was a brush shed.
		Mesa’s first community hospital was established in 1920, when a group of citizens purchased a home at Main Street and Hibbert and converted it into a hospital.
		Mesa was honored for its efforts to address community problems through cooperation among citizens, schools, civic groups and local governments, including the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community.

	Chicago Cubs, Jose Mesa, Jose Macias, Kip Wells, Major League Baseball, Pittsburgh Pirates - CBS SportsLine.com
		Jose Macias' sacrifice fly drove in the go-ahead run, and the Cubs rallied with two runs in the ninth against Mesa for the second time in less than 20 hours, ruining Kip Wells' solid start and beating the Pirates 3-2 Wednesday.
		Jeromy Burnitz drew a walk from Mesa (0-3) to start the ninth, only to be thrown out easily at second as the Pirates pitched out in anticipation of a possible hit-and-run, which Baker confirmed he called.
		Ryan Dempster, the Cubs' latest closer, pitched out of a bases-loaded jam in the ninth for his second save in two days by getting Jack Wilson -- who was 3-for-3 -- to ground into a double play.

	Any Team Can Have a Bad Century (Transactions)
		Not only did the Cubs not have to give up 1/5 of baseball's best rotation, but they got a 2-time batting champ, and perennial All-Star SS without giving up the 2 big named prospects rumored to be going for months.
		He was hailed as the next great Cubs prospect, a projectable lefty with a good feel for 3 pitches and near pinpoint control.
		For some odd reason, the Cubs feel that Montanez (a very bad offensive middle IF) will be better suited to play corner OF, (because face it, he won't be able to play CF) where his bat will be even more of a liability.

		Mesa has 13 saves in as many opportunities (through May 15) and 23 in a row since last season.
		05-18-2005 03:08 AM mesa wants to stay in pittsburgh cause it is the only place he can be overrated......on a contending team he would buckle and he would not get any saves.....i dont like him and it is easy to save games for a losing club, the games do not matter.
		It would be useless for the Cubs to trade a solid prospect for a guy that may be in the last year of his carreer.

	Spring Training 2006: Chicago Cubs
		At the time Mesa was not seen as an attractive area for spring training, and in fact the Oakland Oaks of the Pacific Coast League failed to draw at all when the team held spring training at Mesa in 1952.
		The move to Mesa was also promoted by Dwight Patterson, a Mesa rancher and builder who worked to bring spring-training games to the area.
		The Cubs were hesitant to move to Mesa with the New York Giants training only 20 miles away in Phoenix, so Patterson and a group of local businessmen formed the HoHoKams, who put up a $22,000 guarantee if the Cubs moved to Mesa's Rendezvous Park.

		The Cubs have placed Mark Grudzielanek on the 15-day DL and purchased the contract Augie Ojeda from AAA Iowa.
		I wrote this morning about why I think the Cubs should add Brendan Harris instead, and although I wrote that not realizing that they had a free spot on the 40-man due to (Lenny) Harris's release yesterday, I still that is a better option.

		MESA, Ariz. -- Cubs pitcher Mark Prior threw four innings in a simulated game on a backfield Monday and said it was the best he felt all spring.
		Prior could throw for the Cubs against Seattle in Las Vegas in their last CL game, or for one of their minor league teams in Arizona.
		Cubs manager Dusty Baker has said he'd prefer 11 pitchers, which would open a spot for someone like outfielder David Kelton.

	Cubs fans keep Mesa seats filled
		With the dust barely settled from the second year in a row of record attendance, Mesa Cactus League boosters are talking about whether to expand HoHoKam Park.
		The attendance record comes despite the trade of Cub icon Sammy Sosa to the Baltimore Orioles and the steroid scandal.
		Mesa resident Dave Mathewson, who attended Monday night's game against the Seattle Mariners, has been coming to spring games since moving to the Valley in 1976.

		Pitchers, shortstops and outfielders, oh my: the baseball offseason is in full swing, and the Cubs expect to be right in the middle of the Hot Stove League action.
		With baseball's Rule V draft looming, the Chicago Cubs cleared a space on their 40-man roster Wednesday, trading right-handed pitcher Jon Leicester to the Texas Rangers for a player to be named later.
		Leicester began the 2005 season in the Cubs' bullpen, but was sent to AAA Iowa after just five appearances.

		The Cubs also have to be impressed by the.310 batting average, probably higher than what theat scout had guessed.
		The Cubs have plenty of OF prospects at this stage I think Fuld likely has a higher ceiling than the likes of Boyer and McQuade both from major DI programs (CSF and FSU) who were drafted relatively high.
		A non-drafted free agent by the Cubs in 1998, Ferreras was 3-6 with a 2.78 ERA in 51 appearances in 2002 for Lansing and then went 4-1 with a 3.56 in 10 games for the Lugnuts last season before being shut down with injuries.

		The Cubs basically told Nomar to take a hike (although they worded it "he should go out and find if there is a better fit") over the weekend.
		I've read a lot online about Cub fans thinking that Corey is the "best alternative" in CF and has too much talent to be let go and that two years ago he did blah blah blah...
		The Cubs' arms in Mesa are less than spectacular so far, but we're talking less than 8.0 IP here.

	Cathedral Stone - Eddie Vedder - Cubs - La Mesa - San Diego University Open Air Theater - Roady
		At the time I lived in a condo down the street from the stadium and Eddie was living in La Mesa.
		We'll be seeing the Cubs crush the 'madres'(a put down to the Padres) tonight." Later on during the game he broke out the recorder again.
		Eddie always enjoyed sitting out there because the seats were cheap ($3.00), and it gave him the room to kick his feet up on the seats in front of him and relax while seeing the entire field of play.

	Hawkins glad to discuss this ending
		Hawkins was so impressive in that role, the Cubs looked as if they had pulled off a steal by signing him as a free agent before last season.
		The closer the Cubs tried to get last August, right-hander Jose Mesa, got the final out in the ninth inning for the Pirates, striking out Corey Patterson on his second consecutive fastball out of the zone for his sixth save on a team that has six victories.
		Meaning the Cubs are in the same position they were in during their late-season collapse of 2004 -- wishing they had a closer not named LaTroy Hawkins.

	CHAPTER FOUR
		In his welcoming letter to the membership in February, 1979, Big Ho (the "Chief" had disappeared) Howard Godfrey wrote: ‘Well, it is that time of the year again, but the major difference is we have a ball club with a sound history and a sem- blance of an organization with which to work.
		In the 1987 remodeling of the Cubs locker room, Big Ho Dale Riggins discovered a floor covering which would allow the ball players to walk around in their cleats without endangering their health or the floor.
		Thus it was that with the renegotiation among the Cubs, the HoHoKam and the City of Mesa which took place in 1995, the Cubs agreed to stay in Mesa for 20 years in return for a new, state-of-the-art stadium.

		Remlinger had arm problems in his three years with the Cubs, and Hawkins opened his career well as a setup man but was forced into the closer's role and struggled.
		The Cubs have already re-signed Glendon Rusch and will likely add another pitcher or two, so Guzman probably won't get a chance to compete for a roster spot in spring training.
		The Cubs picked up Walker's option last week, but they're expected to make him available if they sign a shortstop.
