  1. And best of luck getting the Union to agree to blood draws. Not happening any time soon.
  2. Yeah, I don't get what he is hoping to accomplish here.
  3. So people are now taking rumors of appearances in the Mitchell report as fact that said player used steroids? If his name actually appears in the report in 30 minutes will you be convinced? And if not, why? It really wasn't about the rumor part, it was about the Mitchell report. The whole thing stinks to me. I think we have to wait and see what the conclusions are based on before judging the conclusions.
  4. Bruce, do you think that Prior's unwillingness to "play ball" stems from a strained relationship between himself and the Cubs? Or did Prior let his ego make the decision for him? Probably a little of both. I guess I wonder what he has against the Cubs at this point. I don't think he was treated unfairly, at least to the best of my knowledge.

  7. Moreso because he's an obnoxious SOB and talks too much. Preach it.
  8. No way. You can always stick Chavez in AAA. Let's get out from under Marquis' contract and poor performance, please.
  9. Murton really has value. I wish he would play here, but I get why they are dealing him.
  10. Pretty much sums up how I feel. BTW, keep in mind that I heard Levine report this; consider the source.
  11. Just want to pat myself on the back b/c I floated the Marquis to Mets idea several weeks ago. 8-) Talk about a team desperate for pitching...
  12. Didn't see this posted anywhere else, but perhaps I missed it: Levine on 1000 says they have decided to non-tender Prior and he will become a FA.

  14. Hard to disagree. He is also coming off a broken wrist, no?
  15. BUMP Looks like Bay could be headed west: http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=3151599
  16. I watch about, 60-80 Jays games a year, he won't ever be healthy. Therefore; I want Burnett about as much as I want Gonorrhea. How do you feel about cirrhosis of the liver with jaundice? Nice. Seinfeld reference right? "Why did I look for love...in a bottle?" And I burned for her...much like the burning I felt the next morning...
  17. There certainly is a lot of smoke to the idea that Piniella wants Jason Marquis gone. Just asking: is that the case, or is it just wishful thinking by all of us?
  18. I think this song is appropriate for those of us with Fukudome Fever: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EpCcelpvkps
  19. http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/ Interesting. Levine isn't a terribly reliable guy, but that is very interesting if true, especially the part about the Rangers outbidding the Cubs. Wonder if Ichiro told him playing for Lou is a good thing.
  20. I agree, but it sure would be nice to drop Soriano in the order to the 5th or 6th spot where he belongs.
  21. he's under contract for $5.5M next year; if he were a free agent, he'd probably be looking at $12M as an annual salary. I knew he was under contract just thought it was for two more years. Why do you think he would get 12 mill at age 35? I agree he is more productive than guys getting paid much more, but perception seems to be different than reality in this case.
  22. I have always liked Ibanez. I think I'd prefer him for 12 mill over 2 years (or something) rather than breaking the bank for Fukudome.
