I'm anti-FAAB; pro-waivers.

How about bringing Sosa in on a minor-league deal with an invite to Spring Training? I'd be curious enough to try that. I don't think he'll slip that low, but I'd be curious. -
Ooh. Deja vu all over again.

Not if you have one of these.

Didn't know Edgy spoke Japanese, did you? He amazes us every single day.

ORIGINAL METS (& MLB) TV BROADCAST ON DVD FOR TRADE

My tape of Game 7 of the '86 Series tapes over Game 6. I know, I'm a moron -- but keep in mind I was only ten. But wait -- after the Game 7 footage ends, you see the last out of the ninth inning of Game 6! The fateful tenth inning is preserved in its entirety. Worked out kinda nicely, actually. -
He'll also now have been a teammate of both Pedro Martinezes.

But then nobody gets to put a "created by" line in their signature.

But Tommy John has a surgery named after him. Ain't no Bert Blyleven surgery. (Just kidding. TJ is not a HoFer, surgery or not.)
-
Crap. I forgot Jack Morris. He goes on the maybe list.

I think the knock on Belle is that he ate puppy dogs for breakfast. He just wasn't a nice guy, and when a guy is statistically on the borderline for his career, it's those types of things that sway you. I hated Belle; when I was living in Rochester, he was a total dick when the O's came up to play their annual exhibition, and that really stuck with me. You throw in the other incidents (like throwing a ball at a journalist and mysteriously changing your name from Joey to Albert) and it sticks in your craw, and you don't want to recognize the good things, because he didn't really do enough on the field to transcend that. That said, the argument for Belle is my argument for Jim Rice; he was dominant for a couple of years -- the scariest hitter in the league.

Yeah... it wasn't clear what role Ron Hodges had in this, but he definitely was mentioned near the beginning of the press conference.

I would love an auction, but I don't think it's practical.
-
I'm an "eh" also. I understand where the Mets are coming from, but I also think the GBA thing is unnecessary. That said, if he wants to sit in the clubhouse and protest, he's well within his rights to do so.

Thank you, Elster. I thought I was the only person who was very much in the anti-Bert camp.

I hope she doesn't demand my uniform number.

Maybe he's not Willets. Weird. That was my guess too. At least he didn't ask us how many nationality's we've been with. -
I think so.
-
That'll buy a lot of llama food.
-
I'll take (e) none of the above. I don't think any of them are the answer. I don't know who is, but I feel like throwing money and/or prospects at any of those four guys doesn't solve the problem.

Wait. We took Wagner to see Phantom Of The Freaking Opera? Why didn't we just kick him in the nuts and ask him to work in the team store before games?
