  SAN DIEGO — Five times last season, right-hander Dylan Floro was promoted from Triple-A to the Chicago Cubs. And five times he was sent back to the minors.
  He made only three appearances for the Cubs. And, at the end of July when they needed room on their 40-man roster for their trade-deadline pickups, Floro was designated for assignment and the roller coaster stopped. He was claimed on waivers by the Dodgers and finished the season in Triple-A.

  For most Californians, the year-2000 Proposition 34 was little more than a meaningless formality. But not to politicians or political party officials.
