Is anyone looking forward to the World Classic...
I was looking at the rosters the other day and there are some loaded teams. That isn't even counting Japan and the other asian teams where the players don't play in America.
I think that this will help me to get through the winter.

Aaron Heilman for Cedeno? That looks good
Didn't Garland sign with Dbacks today too?
Where's Manny gonna end up? Abreu? Miguel Cairo?:wink: Indians are gonna win the central..
All offseason I was thinking Manny would end up back with the Dodgers. I still think that will happen, but I hope we don't get the Manny that left Boston. If he doesn't get the kind of contract he wants, I'm afraid that's just what we'll get. Boras is really trying to convince people there are a lot of suiters for Manny. Too bad not many people are buying. My guess is Manny will end up with a 3-year guaranteed contract from the Dodgers somewhere around his $25 million/year asking price.
I don't see the Dodgers offering Manny more than the 2 yrs $45mil they offered in Nov/Dec. No one else wants him.
The headaches that go along with signing him (such as the antics) aren't worth paying the $25 million/year for his services - well, for most teams anyway...
I don't see why ANY NL team would be looking at Manny. He needs to be a DH.
He was one of my favorites when he was in Boston, but he sure flushed that away. Do you think Boras poisoned him on Boston?
If another team actually jumps in the Manny sweepstakes, I would bet (hope) the Dodgers would be willing to go 3 years @ $20 million + per year. Most Dodger fans think that anyway. It may or may not be true though.
Like, I don't know...say the TWINS :smile:
Are they going to sign Crede by the way? That would be weird to see him as a Twin.
He'll be the Cubs 5th starter, won't he? There was some talk of him closing in Seattle, but obviously that won't be the issue in Chicago.
I know he had bad numbers last year, but that seems to the be exception and not the norm. He has really good stuff. He seemed to kind of wear out his welcome in New York. I like the move for the Cubs.
