Bartolo offered "Richest Contract offer" ever
He (KW) wants everyone to know he tried. I hope Colon is back. With a 4 year deal we'll be happy for 2, so-so for the 3rd and hate the frickin ground he walks on in the 4th. And the best part of signing Colon to a long term deal is ncorgbl will have four years of tub-o-goo material

HE GAWN!!!!!!!!
KW looking GQ! I want to nominate him for GM of the year for this move.

7 question marks
Excuse me but I guess everyone is happy with our steller bullpen I'm not. We need a player who's batting .300+ along with Maggs near the top of the lineup and a closer. I'm not 100% convinced on Flash and Marte.

That was the guy in the turban at White Hen. Wrong kind of manager.

Manuels new career
He'd still be better than DJ Radio would have to play a warning Listening to this may impare your ability to operate heavy equipment. Do not drive while listening to this broadcast. I do feel sad for him. He seems like such a good decent man. I'm certain he'll land somewhere and do a great job in baseball. I believe he's going to be a solid NL Manager.

three or four months ago it would have been covered for sure. Now it's only interesting because finally he can finish first, as in the first manager to be fired.

Surgery Watch
If he's not injured he's career is on a death watch. Without an organic, structural reason for his loss of velocity and resulting inability to get anyone out, he's in trouble.

Happy Birthday Clu

An overlooked off-season priority
Interesting thought. I think it also comes down to confidence on both sides. Pitchers ahve to know we suck the first time we see someone so they get pumped a little bit more and vice cersa.

Any news on who's going under the knife? Koch? Konerko?

Jerry Manuel Farewell
Maybe they'll announce he's staying another season then fire him in two weeks when Torre is available. Oops, the Lions patented that one.

Off season ideas for the contest board
Excellent idea. How about starting one now with the opening day lineups. Have it close in a couple weeks.

2004 season opener
$15 to park on broken glass At least the attendants will watch your car. The first year I had Bulls season tickets I started laughing realizing my car's "ticket" to the lot cost more than my ticket to the game you can always take public transportation

Ruminations
I had to pass this along. It's sad when you're at a baseball game and realize that you'll never have the money, status or talent that the guys on the field take for granted. And it gets even worse when the grounds crew gives way to the players.

2004 season opener
My PTC is Maggs and I'm guessing the starting pitcher is E-Lo

How about limiting to players we've seen in person? Damn, I started a list twelve times and gave up.

What Time.....
You know I am a bit sad about JM leaving. It is the players on the field but he was given a team with the talent to win, then we went out and got help in a few key areas. I hope to see him in Philly next season. I think he'll do verywell in the NL. I also think if we had Dusty and the Cubs had Jerry we would be playing and the Cubs would be sitting.

Another plus for E-Lo, He doesn't duck out of tough games with imaginary ailments

ESTEBAN LOAIZA
The only blemish was a couple loses when we really, really, really needed wins. What an awesome season for him.

Jerry Manuel Farewell
No No No we need to save him I was a big Larussa fan but his best years are behind him. We would have him before he was great and after he was great. Is Lee Elia available? We need to wait until the firing season is over and decide then. You never know who will be available. How about Frank as a player-Manager
