  1. That third one seems interesting to me, as it seems to include Davy Johnson and his predecessor George Bamberger in one shot. Bambi stayed on as a minor league instructor after his resignation, and likely would have been present as a spring training instructor, but such guys tend to give their successor space and stay on the minor league side of the complex.
  2. Rare first editions, a letter from George Washington, oil paintings of noble ships, and a 2000 losing-side World Series ring are up for grabs as Hayloft Auctions by Doyle auctions off the Nelson Doubleday, Jr. Collection. The real prize seems to Lot 55, a collection of "approximately twenty original watercolors by artist Raymond Davidson." (Approximately? You're an auctioneer that can't be bothered with counting 20 or so items in a lot?) It's estimated to go for $400-$600 which certainly seems like a bargain, unless they mean they're expected to go for that much per painting.
  3. Is this Netflixable?
  4. Well, it's December and he's hitting soft-serv and recovering from major back surgery, and still seemingly 20 pounds or so lighter than usual, so yeah, he's not ready to bat cleanup. But swinging a bat with full force and torque means something at this point, I hope. Beats sitting around and waiting for a green light from the docs.
  5. That first one came it at, what? 38? 39?

  7. Check this out. Video from December 27. When you were sleeping off your holiday, this was happening in Hampton Roads, VA.

  8. I agree with him that the less-than-5% rule is arbitrary and has destroyed more than a few worthy candidacies before anybody really thought about them. I find the case for Posada compelling. What hurts his case badly is Joe Girardi—for starting ahead of him at the beginning of his career and for benching him at the end.
  9. Control? Sheesh, I can't even control myself.
  10. Venezuela, Ireland (though most Irish-born players would qualify for the UK), Canada, Netherlands, Bahamas ... You can do a whole second kwiz!

  12. Who wins?
  13. Moe Drabowsky.

  15. FRANCE: Most career W (62) (1980-1988) - Frenchman who played in French Canada; one of only three Expos with a no-hitter Sacre bleu! Sacre powder bleu!
  16. German dongs: Jay Buhner.
  17. German homers: Hensley Meulens. OE: Nope.
  18. Cuban homers: José Canseco.
  19. Aussie homers: Dave Nilsson
  20. Aruban wins: Sidney Ponson.
  21. I appreciate the commitment SCL is showing to his argument. But I feel like a Yankee fan putting an enemy logo in a urinal.
  22. Panamanian Wins: Bruce Chen.
  23. Well, he was never going to be the Mets' fifth outfielder anyway. I'm thinking ... Colby Rasmus?
  24. Yeah, I was concerned that I saw him warming up for that role back in April.
  25. The second cover has the story, and a great photo go with it, but totally bungles the angle by shifting focus from Piazza onto Seaver.
