Congratulations to the Big Unit.

Thanks, SCL ! But how would you know ? :smile

No offense Grover. But as you might have noticed,we take our sports pretty serious around here. Randy Johnson winning his 300th game in a Giants uniform is a pretty cool thing. So that's how I know.

But on the things come full circle angle....Randy started his career with the Montreal Expos...now attempting to do business as the Washington Nationals. Randy was born in the bay area which makes it a semi-big deal for us - Nothing to root for northern california sports fans. Are you fucking serious?

What about Jason Bartlett? How'd they let him go??

not resigning hunter and especially santana was, of course, a huge mistake. but bartlett didn't hit all that well when he was here....but him and garza for delmon young was about as big as us getting nathan, liriano and boof for AJ.

normally, the twins trade well. that one, however, was one big assed "D'oh!"

I must chime in here. The Pirates are finally on the right track. It will be a few years though. Besides, they will be around for at least 25 years.

is ichiro the best hitter of this generation? by my calculations, had he played in the majors since he was 20 or 21, he would easily have reached 4000 hits and could have eclipsed pete rose as the all time hits king.

just some food for thought as i find myself browsing through MLB.com historical stats instead of getting any work done.

MLB Adjusts Drug Policy To Allow David Ortiz To Take Steroids

NEW YORK—Major League Baseball commissioner Bud Selig announced a new policy on performance-enhancing substances Wednesday that is expected to help former slugger David Ortiz, currently batting a dismal .203, to come out of his slump and return as a league-leading batter. "We have amended the rules of the game to allow David [Ortiz] to use any performance enhancer he can find, as baseball is pretty boring when he's not hitting home runs," said Selig, who added that Ortiz could be suspended for 50 games under the new policy if drug tests show he is not taking any previously banned substances. "What David is doing right now is wrong, and this season could damage his reputation forever. The game of baseball needs him to do the responsible thing and superhumanly whack balls over the fence whenever possible." Moments after the announcement, Ortiz smashed through the conference doors with needles hanging from several different areas of his body and crushed Selig with a brutal thank-you hug, killing him instantly.
