New Jersey's Stockton University prepares to host soccer players ahead of FIFA Club World Cup
This New Jersey university is preparing to host a Brazilian soccer team ahead of FIFA Club World Cup This New Jersey university is preparing to host a Brazilian soccer team ahead of FIFA Club World Cup This New Jersey university is preparing to host a Brazilian soccer team ahead of FIFA Club World Cup Some of the best soccer players in the world will soon arrive in New Jersey. Lincoln Financial Field will host matches for the inaugural FIFA Club World Cup in Philadelphia, but Stockton University has also been selected as a training site. Focusing on straight lines and overlapping passes, the grounds team at the school in Galloway Township is mowing the soccer field with precision. Crews are working around the clock after FIFA announced CR Flamengo from Brazil will be the team spending roughly two weeks training in South Jersey. "CR Flamengo is one of the most popular teams in the world with over 57 million followers," said Jeff Haines, the associate director of athletics and recreation at Stockton. "The university realizes how big of a deal this is, not just from a local soccer standpoint, but a global standpoint that puts Stockton on the map." Fresh lines were painted on the soccer field on Tuesday, and FIFA shipped new goals ahead of the practice sessions. The university's athletic director, Tony Berich, said representatives from Brazil visited the campus in December, and one of the selling points was the Bermuda grass inside G. Larry James Stadium. "I don't know if we would have this opportunity if we didn't have this field, I don't think we would have even been considered," Berich said. Stockton's field was grown at Tuckahoe Turf Farms in Hammonton, the same farm working with FIFA and Lincoln Financial Field, so it will be a smooth transition for CR Flamengo. Tuckahoe Turf Farms CBS News Philadelphia All of the practices on Stockton's campus will be closed to the public. The university installed temporary fencing around the stadium to keep the players and the field more secure. "We do have experience in hosting big events and soccer teams, this is another big exciting event that we're really looking forward to," Haines said. In 1994, Stockton hosted Saudi Arabia's team ahead of the World Cup. "We were also fortunate enough to host Nigeria in 1996 for their Olympic training camp as well. Nigeria went on to win the gold medal," Haines said. Now, Stockton is preparing for CR Flamengo's arrival on June 12, and the team will train in Galloway Township through June 23. Officials say the field and facilities will be ready. "This is the one chance that we have to be associated with … a worldwide event like this," Berich said.

Former MLB exec blasts Royals' 'irresponsible' move with top prospect Jac Caglianone
Kansas City was ecstatic when the Royals called up their top prospect, Jac Caglianone, but one former MLB executive called it the "single-most irresponsible move I've seen in quite a long time." Former Miami Marlins team president David Samson vocalized his displeasure with the Royals' front office bringing Caglianone up to the big leagues despite his success in the minors. It wasn't Caglianone's performance Samson was referencing in his opinion. It has to do with service time. "If he's going to be that good, how do you call him up now where he will hit arbitration a full year earlier than if they waited until after around June 17?" Samson wondered. "I have no idea how a team that's not in the top 10 of payroll is not paying attention to dates. And the Royals forcing the issue, that's a bunch of horse hockey. You take the extra two weeks because it gives you an extra year and compounds itself in arbitration." Caglianone will reach arbitration a year early because Kansas City brought him up before the Super Two deadline. Service time has been a debated topic for some time among baseball experts and fans because teams do have the ability to keep prospects down on the farm to ensure another year of control. But Kansas City clearly doesn't mind bringing up Caglianone now. He was just called up, but Caglianone is one of the top prospects in baseball and has been raking in the minors this year with a .322/.389/.593 slash line with 15 homers and 56 RBIs between Double-A and Triple-A. Samson believes calling up Caglianone now puts more pressure on him to perform right away because of the service time scenario. "This is a $10 million decision they made. He better be Vladimir Guerrero Sr., and he better start now," Samson said. Caglianone went 0-for-5 in his major league debut Tuesday against the St. Louis Cardinals. Kansas City is hoping Caglianone can get acclimated to the big leagues sooner rather than later, and they're hoping to reach the playoffs in back-to-back seasons after breaking an eight-year skid last year with a wild-card berth. The last time the Royals reached the playoffs before that was the 2015 campaign, when they defeated the New York Mets in the World Series.
