Cyclopsis Joe Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 it very well could be that the 3 of the best teams in the league are all in ONE division.I hope not. People would start posting here that the the second place AL East team should play in the world series against the first place team.THEY ONLY LOST BY THREE!!!

amare32 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 One of my all-time favorites hung up the cleats today, J.T. Snow.He'll be working for the Giants in a bunch of roles including broadcasting, minor league coach, assistant to GM Brian Sabean, and spring training instructor. He'll also be a representative for the Giants for certain events.J.T. is definitely the best defensive 1B I've ever seen. I'd love to actually get a chance to meet him someday.It was pretty cool when he simultaneously crossed home plate and scooped up li'l Darren Baker during the 2002 World Series, thereby saving Dusty's son from certain doom.Bravo, JT.For the record, JT Snow is an Arizona Wildcat. To which I heartily proclaim ...BEAR DOWN, ARIZONA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaltimoreFan Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Orioles signed Jay Payton last night for 2 years and close to $10 million.This deal doesn't really excite me too much. Payton just seems really average. Although its better than using the Newhan/Fahey option we used toward the end of last season. Any A's fans on here have an opinion on him?

Look to get a player whos pretty consistant at the plate, but who can struggle on defense at times.

Look to get a player whos pretty consistant at the plate, but who can struggle on defense at times.Alright, thanks thats good to hear. I've been reading an Orioles message board and you would think the world is about to end. One stupid poster even said he was know going to become a yankee fan (not sure how a move that improves your team does that). But funny you say he struggles on defense at times, the few supporters (or at least people that accept it) of the deal are saying that it good because he will improve defense. Also, just another note from the Sun article. The O's are still looking to trade for Marcus Thames of the Tigers. Basically all they need is a thrid team because they don't really have anything that fits the Tigers needs. Overall I'm not too sure what to think of this offseason. Really all I'm hoping for is that we reach .500 even. I'll be happy with that even if its another 4th place finish. However one of the big things we needed was a clean-up hitter. I'm a big fan of pitching, and the Orioles have alot of good young ones (and a full spring training with Mazzone this year). So I feel we could get away with batting Tejada 4th and getting a decent 3rd hitter. But I don't really think we have one yet. Markakis could step up but I don't really want to rush him this early in his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMOSTLfan Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Cubs reportedly sign Jason Marquis to a 3yr/$20 million deal.Can you say overpaid? Don't get me wrong, I like Jason Marquis and he's a good pitcher if his attitude is in check but $20 million? Jeez Andy Pettite only got $16 million from the Boss.These salaries are getting out of control.
