  2. Marty needs to take up a hobby during spring training...
  3. I kept Dotel,my waiver requests came through today,dropped Hillenbrand for Dellucci and Loretta for Milledge....slim pickings out there on the wire.
  4. ]�I�m the boss,� Steinbrenner said through his spokesman, Howard Rubenstein. �I continue to be the boss, I have no intention of retiring, and my family runs the Yankees with me.� it's falling asunder.....
  5. Steinbrenners daughter files for divorce tuesday form her husband Steve Swindal,apparently this will mean a divorce from the yankees aswell for him.
  6. I love that Skid Row song,really powerfull song and reminds me what a great band they were,IIRC that was wrote around the time Desert Storm...IIRC again that song came about after a conversation between Bach and his dad regarding that war. it's without doubt my fave Skids song.
  7. Point of interest - Has Beltran stolen a base this spring?

American League 1980 - Brett - .390 2000 - Garciaparra - .372 2004 - Ichiro - .372 National League 1987 - Gwynn - .370 1993 - Galarraga - .370 1994 - Gwynn - .394 1997 - Gwynn - .372 1999 - Walker - .379 2000 - Helton - .372 2002 - Bonds - .370 http://www.factmonster.com/ipka/A0113194.html http://www.factmonster.com/ipka/A0113186.html

Crawford could be viewed as an American league version of Reyes...numbers from last season.... http://tampabay.devilrays.mlb.com/team/player.jsp?player_id=408307
  15. Carl Crawford...# 8
  16. Pujols Reyes A-Rod Howard Soriano Cabrera Ortiz Beltran Utley Wright-D
  17. Thanks FK..Clark is one Doug Clark,11 career AB's with the Giants and Oakland between 05/06. Drafted by the Giants in the seventh round in 1998.
  18. Who are Pena and Clark and will they be in the middle of the Braves lineup all season...they are not even listed on the Braves 40 man roster.
  19. So much for the Adkins diet.
  20. Centerfield wrote: Urbina's an idiot. He should have just electrocuted them while they were in the pool and been hailed as a hero.thanks for the laugh.....
  21. If he did what is reported in that article then he deserves every year of his sentence...
  22. Tim Kurkjian in an article on baseball numbers said this.... ]An interest in baseball statistics has become, for some, an obsession. A colleague from ESPN recently asked me to name the 10 guys who have hit .370 or better, starting with the 1980 season. Using a couple of hours that I didn't have, I couldn't rest until I'd made my 10 guesses. Kurkjan didn't give the names of the players or what they hit,so I did some research . Trivia - Name the ten players that starting in 1980 until 2006 have hit .370 or better, batting average and year for bonus points,one player has done it more than once,a few have Met connections. * In 1999 David Dellucci hit .394 in 109 AB'S,played in 63 games, * In 1980 Broderick Perkins hit .370 in 100 ABs,played in 43 games, For this trivia they do not count.
  23. Sorry for the double post..I certainly think of Griffey as one of the good guys of sport...if he had his health this past several years we might be talking about him passing Aaron soon and actually celebrating it.
  24. Never thought of Griffey -it will be with great interest to see if he can stay healthy and reach 600 or get close...
