Maybe they could just have a play-in weekend. Take 16 of the "auto-bid" teams that never win and have them play down til four of them are left. The "winners" will have played for the right to get slaughtered by the #1 seeds.

Signing Day starts tomorrow morning around 9am Chicago time. It'll be interesting how recruits see USC, Florida St., Notre Dame, Tennessee, and Florida's recent coaching situations and choose their school. I expect Texas to clean up tomorrow pretty heavily in the top 150 recruit list.

The movie might have caused those church people arrested in Haiti to go out and save the little "brown ones."

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Feb 2, 2010 -> 12:28 AM) What NL division are we playing? *please NL west, please* I see, Cubs, Marlins, Pirates, Braves, Nationals. Looks like mostly NL East.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Feb 2, 2010 -> 12:47 AM) Teams have been coming out and saying hes the around the 10th best in the draft in terms of talent, and along with his signability concerns I see him slipping late in the first round if not later. Unless a college guy or three jumps into the spotlight like Strasburg did last season, Washington or any other top 5 team would be foolish to not draft this kid.

The Orioles better start winning with their youth before arbitration hits. That AL East is going to be brutal.

QUOTE (Tex @ Feb 1, 2010 -> 11:04 PM) Good idea Hawk, or maybe left field . . . Fisk was a lot older than Mauer when Hawk did that. Plus, Fisk was really good but Mauer is um, a lot better.

Zeus Harper doth smote yon ball with his lightning bolt.

They should shift Mauer to 3B within a year or two if they are smart.

Mauer's going to be overpaid within 4 or 5 years - when he can't be a catcher anymore.

I've had some work issues and some personal issues that have slowed down the voting set up. Hopefully, I will get to work on this tomorrow afternoon.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jan 31, 2010 -> 01:19 AM) Supposedly Jonny Gomes is close to signing a minor league deal with the Reds. A minor league deal after hitting 20 homers. That's surprising.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Feb 1, 2010 -> 02:44 AM) Bulls Get: Ray Allen, Amar'e Stoudemire Celtics Get: John Salmons, Tyrus Thomas, Jerome James, Bulls 2nd Round Pick Suns Get: Luol Deng, Glen Davis, Celtics 2nd Round Pick That's a poor trade for Phoenix and makes minimal sense for Boston. Why not? People should wonder about your train of thought in this.
