Well my cousin signed with the dirty north side.. Oh well, didn't think it'd happen. Todd Frazier signs with the good guys. I like it. Best guy at 3rd we've had in a while.

I'm confident my Twins will win the whole damn thing now that we have a Korean than can hit home runs off sub 90 mph throwing pitchers.....

Boo.... Go Nats! I'm holding my breath, right now, though.
I hope Dusty Baker can use his weapons better than Matt Williams could--and I liked Matt Williams... But it looks like we may be looking at Daniel Murphy now that it looks like Brandon Phillips is a no go... :-(

Hoping the moves the Cubbies have made work out and they can make another run.
Surprised they got away with taking two guys from the Cardinals. It's usually the other way around. Don

Reds will have a tough time losing less than 95 games next year. It may be worse than that, even.

Mets better sign YO.. Rumors they want to sign DeAza.. It'll be a looong season for them if they go that route.. Plus side would be maybe the Sox sign YO.
Frazier Abreu Cespedes On paper, dangerous middle lineup. But let's be real, on paper the Sox looked good last winter with the work Rick did... |

Tigers looked like the Team of the Century on paper for 3 seasons, and you saw how many WS titles that got them.
![]() Hopefully Cespedes is better for the Sox than he was for Detroit if you get him, Nate. And no, I don't really mean that. ![]()

My guess is the Giants, Tigers, and Chisox will make the biggest offers, and he'll land in San Fran |

Cespedes did OK for the Mets. He hit the cover off the ball for about a month, but once the opposing teams figured out he couldn't hit high inside heat, he was done for the season. Really effected his production in the playoffs. I don't see that changing unless he puts some work into his game. I think the Mets will be better off not signing this over-priced player.

Any thoughts on the two players voted into the HOF today?
Me, I have no problem at all with Griffey Jr. I guess one could quibble that he needed another couple of years active, but I won't be one of those. As for Piazza, I think his numbers would prevent me from voting him in, were it not for the fact that he holds the HR record for a catcher. He was a powerful offensive weapon. On the other hand, he was not much of a defensive backstop, either as a receiver or with his arm. In my book, he was not a Posada, much less a Pudge. But that's me, and I won't begrudge the Pizzaman.

Piazza--when I was younger, I was a Dodger fan, right through his rookie season. I always thought Mike Piazza was a solid player. Unfortunately, because of the flash of the players of the 90's and the fact that numbers are inflated more and more ever year, solid players wind up getting overlooked for the players that put on a show (See Craig Biggio and how long he had to wait to get voted in)

Solid? Yeah, sure. HOF? Ehhhh. And I saw Piazza a lot here with the Mets.
Not so much with the Dodgers, thanks to one of history's three greatest villains, Walter O'Malley. ![]()
