Library of Congress Posts Photos on Flickr

Here's something neat that the Library of Congress is now doing: posting photos on Flickr with the hope that the general public will add value to the old photos by tagging them and commenting on them. Richard Koman at ZDNet has more. Here are the photos and here are the photos tagged baseball.

I didn't immediately notice any Chicago Cubs photos, but here's one of the great Christy Mathewson playing catch:

DeRosa Wants to Play Everyday

At least Mark DeRosa is honest enough to say that he'd rather play everyday than the team get better: "I find it hard to believe I'm going to get playing time if you acquire a player of that caliber [Brian Roberts]. You've got Fukudome in right, you've got Aramis at third, you've got Roberts at second, you've got [Alfonso Soriano] in left. Where am I going to play? That was my question [to Hendry], and that was my approach. It's not like you're acquiring another super utility player, and we can all bounce around and all give each other days off and all find a happy medium." (Hat tip: Bleed Cubbie Blue.)
