Like this add. Good move by the Nats

Re: MLB Offseason 2012-2013
 

Like the Span move as well

Re: MLB Offseason 2012-2013
 

Love the Span move...was hoping for a more sure bet move on the 5th starter but if he stays healthy it is a fantastic pickup. Hard to see Garcia breaking into these 5 now although chances are the rotation doesn't stay nearly as healthy as it did last season.

Angels are the new Yankees. They are paying 2 hitters like 375 million

i really dont know what to think of this...ive heard he is a strange cat in the locker room. He has dominating stuff, but who closes?

Re: MLB Offseason 2012-2013
 

Bullpen really wore down last year. This gives us another arm with dominant stuff and ensures we won't wear Clip down with saving. clip wearing down really really hurt the team last year. I love the guy and look forward to seeing him kill people again with his change up. By the end of last year he couldn't get anyone to swing at it.

No position. Turned him around for a good prospect at a position of need in terms of org depth.

Re: MLB Offseason 2012-2013
 

Sucks that Morse is gone, but Pitching is our strength and its ultimately what we need to win. Morse was either unstoppable or invisible in games this past year. I wish him nothing but the best in Seattle. But I'll take Span over him defensively and two more pitchers (Haren and Soriano) plus potential pitchers.

I foresee a dugout fistfight between them at some point. BJ will be the instigator obviously.

A-roid who said he has admitted to using in the past but not currently of course shows on the list 16 times. This guy cant stop lying Smh

You can expect as much when 100's of millions of dollars are at stake. Why is it very questionable that Gio Gonzalez is on the list? Why is it so hard to fathom your favorite team's players are doping?

Re: MLB Offseason 2012-2013
 

Well Braves and Mets are my teams, but keep up with the Nats. But this report isnt adding up on Gio...im gonna hold off for more info.

Now A-roid on the other hand....if this dude doesnt get suspended, the Bud needs to be fired immediately. insane how much of a POS A-roid is and he gets away with it...smh

There is a reason all these athletes go to this guy. It's the same reason why many of the same athletes went to Victor Conte or Dr. Anthony Galea. Why doesn't it add up? Because we don't want it to add it? I don't believe in "coincidences" like this, and history has proved it generally isn't a coincidence either. It's a fact of big money sports.

Now as far as Aroid being suspended, doesn't he have to actually fail a test to be suspended? Also, if he is using PEDs, it sure isn't helping him much. Might need to ask for a refund.

Re: MLB Offseason 2012-2013
 

I thought now MLB could suspend without a positive test...I could be wrong. Eff the yankees they deserve everything they get with Aroid.

Im just gonna wait and see with Gio. Just want to hear what baseball will say.

Maybe they can suspend him without a positive test, I'm merely asking that question myself. The Yanks are getting exactly what they deserve. They are paying out their ass for a guy who isn't really producing anymore. With that contract, they are eating 20+ mil per year until 2017. :laughing2 Boras is somewhere laughing his ass off at those idiots.

A-rods production has fallen off dramatically. Last year, they paid 29 million for a guy that hit 18 homers in 122 games.....hahaha I LOVE IT!!

Re: MLB Offseason 2012-2013
 

Didn't Cashman hint last week that A-Rod's hip (I think it was his hip) might keep him sidelined for the entire 2013 season?

That works out well. Yankees get a heads up this report will be coming out which could implicate Rodriguez. Cashman puts it out to the public that A-Rod might have to miss the season with an injury. Should anything happen now behind close doors, Yankees and MLB can effectively sweep it under the rug and just say "well an injury will keep him out for the year"

No way! He provides way too much entertainment. Plus he's humiliating for Yankees fans. I hope he never retires.

Fixed.


The answer is no, but I imagine there is a high percentage of players (especially NFL) that are or have been. When you have 100's of millions of dollars involved, expect cheating. I know I may sound like a broken record about PEDs, but the vast majority of people simply are naive about the issue. I'm still amused by the people that think Usain Bolt is clean....lol

Not MLB, but a huge brawl between Mexico and Canada at the WBC. **** Mexico for that classless move. Huge pieces of shit in my opinion. Glad to see some of them got their faces tagged. What I also have a problem with is why didn't the umpire stop that shit when the 3rd baseman signaled for the pitcher to hit him. Should have told them both if he tries to hit somebody, they are both gone.

I just got a really similar sweatshirt to this one at Modell's for $30; I'm pretty sure it was mislabeled and it really should have been $70.
