    World Cup final.The Spain international wasnt fully fit for Thursdays 2-0
    semifinal win over Club America of Mexico, but has declared himself ready for
    Sundays clash against Japanese champion Kashima Antlers.Today my condition is
    very good, Ramos said Saturday. I had a full session with the other players
    today so if the coach needs me I would like to play tomorrow.Madrid coach
    Zinedine Zidane made clear the 30-year-old Ramos is in his plans.Yes, he is our
    captain and his condition is getting better, the former France great said.He was
    able to participate in the training today, therefore yes, he should be in the
    team tomorrow, no problem. I hope that he will be able to play the full
    game.Ramos scored a 92nd-minute winner in the 3-2 victory over Deportivo La
    Coruna in the Spanish league on Dec. 10 and a 90th-minute equalizer in the 1-1
    draw with Barcelona a week earlier.But Ramos is hoping that no late heroics will
    be needed on Sunday.Of course if I can score a goal I will be very happy, but I
    dont want to wait until the last minute like in previous matches, he said. I
    would like to become a champion, that is all.Ramos opened the scoring when
    Madrid won the 2014 Club World Cup title, beating San Lorenzo of Argentina
    2-0.Madrid is unbeaten in any competition since April 6, a run which has
    stretched to 36 matches.Kashima is the first Asian side to progress to the
    final, and coach Masatada Ishii is looking forward to his teams big day.For me,
    participating in the final has a very special and significant meaning, the
    49-year-old Ishii said.Regardless of who we are playing against, advancing to
    the final is a very big thing to motivate my players. The final is a very
    special match so Im sure my players are excited.

    looks back at the stories and moments that made the year memorable.

    get any better than that," Giambi said. "Im speechless." The Indians are roaring
    toward October. Giambi belted a two-run, pinch-hit homer with two outs in the
    ninth inning to give Cleveland a shocking 5-4 win over the Chicago White Sox on
    Tuesday night, keeping the Indians up with the lead pack in the AL wild-card
    race. OXON HILL, Md. -- Ned Yost enjoyed watching the Cleveland Indians
    lights-out bullpen go to work in the playoffs because it was so familiar.It was
    amazing to see -- to watch games and kind of understand the feeling that other
    teams had against us, the Kansas City Royals manager said.Like the Royals on the
    way to the World Series in 2015, the Indians mixed and matched relievers,
    leaning on Andrew Miller for multiple innings in different spots and turning to
    Cody Allen and Bryan Shaw in big situations. And while the Chicago Cubs even
    kept closer Aroldis Chapman in longer than usual on the way to the title,
    managers dont expect the 2016 postseason to change the way bullpens are
    managed.The postseason management of the bullpen is extremely different than the
    regular season management, incoming Colorado Rockies manager Bud Black said
    Monday. But what does work (is) if you have those types of relievers that have
    multi-inning performance, who can throw parts of innings and continue, thats
    very valuable.Miller pitched two innings or more in seven appearances, and
    Chapman went 2 2/3 in Game 5 of the World Series -- mostly out of necessity.
    Cleveland manager Terry Francona conceded at the time he wouldnt be able to use
    Miller like that during the regular season.Terry is right: You cant do that
    during the regular season, youre going to blow somebody out, Yost said. But in
    the playoffs, its a lot easier to do. You got to understand, Andrew Miller,
    these guys dont grow on trees. They are few and far in between, guys that are
    that durable that can pitch like he did, especially down the stretch.Millers
    example isnt changing how teams approach the offseason, either. Boston Red Sox
    general manager Dave Dombrowski said his priority was getting an eighth-inning
    guy, filling a specific role in front of closer Craig Kimbrel, and did so by
    acquiring right-hander Tyler Thornburg from the Milwaukee Brewers.Manager John
    Farrell considers it important to define roles over 162 games.If you look at our
    usage over our last couple of years the one thing that we have had is that one
    guy other than the closer where weve used (him) at the highest-leverage point in
    the seventh or eighth inning, Farrell said. Ideally, yeah, you can give the
    seventh, eighth and ninth inning to three different relievers and let it run out
    regardless of where you are in the lineup and what the score is on the winning
    side. I think our main goal is to identify a guy that its not so much a matchup
    situation.Franconas theoryy -- an evolving one around baseball -- is that the
    three biggest outs arent always the final ones.dddddddddddd Theres still value
    in closing, but if the heart of the order is up in the seventh, eighth or even
    the sixth inning, that could be the spot for a team to use its best
    reliever.While playing bullpen bingo became popular in the postseason,
    Philadelphia manager Pete Mackanin doesnt think its practical during the regular
    season. It just requires depth and talent, which the Phillies now have more of
    after signing Joaquin Benoit.The deeper you are in a bullpen the easier it is to
    go to a real good stopper type pitcher in the sixth or seventh or fifth inning
    like they were able to do in the World Series, Mackanin said Tuesday. Over the
    course of a six-month season certainly its harder to do, but the deeper you are
    in the bullpen the easier it is.Stacking a bullpen with two or three closer
    types like the Indians gives them a leg up in employing that strategy.I think
    what teams are trying to do or what successful teams have done have had a
    seventh- or eighth- or ninth-inning guy, and all three of them can pitch in the
    ninth inning, Yost said. All three of them can close. When you have that, man,
    thats a huge advantage late in the game.Even though the new MLB collective
    bargaining agreement didnt include the addition of a 26th player to rosters, New
    York Mets general manager Sandy Alderson said theres a trend toward using more
    bullpen arms. Phillies GM Matt Klentak thinks more off days built into the
    schedule will help teams if they want to lean more on top relievers, who have
    more value thanks to the lessons of recent postseasons.As an industry, were
    appreciating the value that those players can bring, Klentak said, a day after
    the Giants gave closer Mark Melancon a $62 million, four-year deal, the richest
    ever for a reliever. During the postseason, as we watched the games and we saw
    these managers using their elite arms in the higher leverage situation but in
    earlier innings, we talked a lot internally in the office about whether we
    thought that was something that might become more mainstream during the regular
    season. ...I think the fact that some teams had some success with that in
    October would lead us to think that a lot of managers will probably try
    that.---AP Baseball Writer Ronald Blum and Sports Writer Howard Fendrich
