FRANKFURT, Germany -- The Bundesliga will decide in March whether to introduce goal-line technology in its top two divisions. The Grman clubs will make a "fundamental decision" after taking into consideration how the technology works at the upcoming Club World Cup in Morocco and the results of the systems used in England and the Netherlands, Bundesliga president Reinhard Rauball said on Thursday. The Bundesliga has been slow to warm up to the technology despite controversial calls and wrong decisions by referees nearly every week. The league has resisted, saying the margin of error was still too great. But many coaches gave been calling for the technology to be adopted as soon as possible. The most glaring example came on Oct. 18 in the match between Bayer Leverkusen and Hoffenheim, when Leverkusen striker Stefan Kiesslings header went in through the side netting and was ruled a goal despite television replays leaving no doubt that it wasnt legal. Rauball said Bundesliga management will provide the clubs with the pros and cons of technology. If the 36 clubs decide to accept it, they will choose from various providers of goal-line aids and not necessarily pick the German company chosen by FIFA. The technology, if accepted by the clubs, could be introduced as early as next season. Previously, the earliest date mentioned had been 2015. Also, the league said two-thirds of participants in a poll were against changing the international calendar. Such a change, required if the 2022 World Cup in Qatar was moved into the northern hemispheres winter months, would mean that league seasons would begin and end in one calendar year. The league said its poll included representatives from clubs, the German Football Federation, media, sponsors, security experts and fans. Byron Maxwell Dolphins Jersey .

Kansas City announced the signing of veteran pitcher Bruce Chen to a $4.25 million, one-year deal on Saturday that includes a mutual option for the 2015 season, and manager Ned Yost said he expects to keep the left-hander as a starter rather than a reliever. That would leave just one job available for a whole bunch of candidates. "I dont know how its all going to play out," Yost said at Royals FanFest. "Im real open-minded, but you try to go into it and you think about all scenarios and all cases." The Royals are solid at the front of the rotation with James Shields, Jason Vargas and Jeremy Guthrie, and Chen was dominant the latter part of last season after beginning in the bullpen. That means young flame-throwers Yordano Ventura and Kyle Zimmer, talented but injury prone left-hander Danny Duffy, starters-turned-relievers Luke Hochevar and Wade Davis, and even veteran Brad Penny could be competing for a single rotation spot in spring training. Royals pitchers and catchers report to Surprise, Ariz., on Feb. 14. "If Danny Duffy doesnt make the rotation to begin with, what more does that do to the bullpen?" Yost said, offering one example of how things migght play out.dddddddddddd"That gives us another left-handed arm that we can get through the All-Star break and bam, like Bruce last year, here comes a fresh, healthy Danny Duffy if someone is slacking a little bit. "Well see how it plays out," Yost said. "I want to give everyone a fair chance at it." The 36-year-old Chen became a free agent after last season, when he went 9-4 with a 3.27 ERA in 15 starts and 19 appearances out of the bullpen. He attracted some interest from a handful of clubs, but he always said hed like to return for a sixth season in Kansas City. The sides reached an agreement Thursday but had to wait to announce it until Chen passed a physical. Hell make $3.25 million this season and $5.5 million with a $1 million buyout next season. He can also earn a performance bonus of $125,000 for each start from 16 through 25. "You cant evaluate Bruce in spring training," Yost said, "because hes not one of those guys that can compete, because hes not a spring training pitcher. But once the bell rings, hes been phenomenal for us. You know what youre going to get with Bruce. "So unless something just dramatically happens between now and then, Bruce will probably be slotted into one of those five spots. In all reality, yeah. But well just see what happens."
