| Baseball Fans?
I have been so anxious since baseball ended last season. Winterball here in Arizona is ok but not the same as the majors! Any other baseball fans here? Go Cubs!!!!! |

| I hope he is the real deal and not another Hideki Arabu(?). That's alot of money for a guy that's never pitched in the big leagues even though he dominated in the world baseball classic. Big fan of the Red Sox since I was 10 and watched the '86 world series. Loved the fact that they swept the hometown Cardinals in 2004 series! Everyone in my family was mad at me for telling them it was going to happen and then it did! | |

| As a sox fan, I respect the Yankees.. Trading Randy Johnson, probably a good move and most likely means their gonna make a strong push for Clemens. Which will make for another damn good season in the AL East | |

| I'm not much of a AL fan, but the move of Randy Johnson to the D-back's is a smart move for the Yanks and a sentimental one for the D-back's. The D-back's want RJ to win his 300th and go to the Hall of Fame as a D-back. The Yanks free up 16 million and pile up prospect to use for a trade down the road, lets say Dontrell Willis. | |

| I think, had McGwire said something in front of Congress, he would get in because there was no proof he did anything illegal back then. However, by choosing not to speak, and the fact that he has been relativley a ghost since his retirement, I'm assuming he could get in around 2008 or so. Good McGwire Article
This year, like all years, I'm pulling for the underrated Jim R.ice...

| Big Mac is in, Slammin Sammy Sosa on the other hand will not go in! If any dirt comes out on Barry Bonds, he will not go in either. | |

| The questions is: if dirt NEVER comes out on Barry Bonds, will he still go in? | |

| If no dirt comes out, I think he is in! How can you not vote him in? Back in his Pirates days he hit the hell out of the ball. As much as I hate defending Bonds, HGH will not improve hand to eye coordination!
Side note, 41 days before pitchers and catchers show up to spring training! | |

| How far are you from Scottsdale? I wish I could visit for Spring Training. Keep an eye out for Giant uber-prospect Tim Lincecum, I'm sure he'll be there this spring. ROY, you heard it here first!! ;P | |

| I'm about 15 minutes west of Scottsdale. You should see the ladies that go to spring training games! It's worth the drive! What would you say 13-15 hours from SF to PHX? | |
