raysox Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 The Marlins are moving a series at the end of June vs. the Mets to Hiram Bithorn Stadium in Puerto Rico...Are the Rays playing in Orlando again this year?I mean there's also plenty of good FSL stadiums for them to play in... Nope. They stoped that last season. @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopCat Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 The Twins have gotten JJ Hardy, Jim Thome and now Orlando Hudson this offseason. That is ridiculous considering they are the Twins. Maybe they actually want to go deep into the postseason this year? Who knows. Between this and Target Field opening, I am a happy camper.Oh, and this is going to be one stacked infield. facebook | @thebugcollector Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 It's amazing they were able to pony up for Thome considering how many other teams were beating down his door. Major coup.

BJBerthiaume Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 I looove this Orlando Hudson move. Our lineup should be fantastic next year. It should look something like this:1. Denard Span CF2. Orlando Hudson 2B3. Joe Mauer C4. Justin Morneau 1B5. Michael Cuddyer RF6. Jason Kubel DH7. J.J. Hardy SS8. Delmon Young LF9. Nick Punto 3BThe other possible lineup is having Kubel in Left and DHing Thome. Either way the Twins have filled their major position holes. I can live with Punto's bat in the lineup because he is a whiz in the field. Delmon Young on the otherhand... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sorry excuse for a bullpen cost them so many games last season. And the starting rotation isn't too hot either. You also have to take into consideration the fact that all the games will be outdoors in less than desirable conditions early and late in the season, which could affect the pitchers too. IIRC, Neshek is coming back. But I have a bad feeling he won't come back nearly as good and pull a Liriano on us. facebook | @thebugcollector Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayJaxon Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 The Braves have offered Johnny Damon a 1 year deal. Scott Boras is looking for 2 years. He may not have a choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 The Nats are closing in on Chein-Ming Wang. He wont be able to pitch till May but still, with Jason Marquis, Wang, Lannan, Jordan Zimmermann, and possibly Strasburg, the Nats have a quality major league pitching staff. Im getting excited about baseball season already.

JayJaxon Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 I kinda don't want Damon to come to Atlanta. So this will work out if he decides to go to Detroit or somewhere. I'm disappointed that Frank Wren never landed the big bat he promised. But now I'm just ready for Spring Training to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDixonDesign Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Espn is reporting that the White Sox are in on the Damon race as well, no numbers yet. Also, Tom Glavine has official retired, will join the Braves front office:http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/story/12915291/glavine-rejoins-braves-as-assistant-to-team-prez-schuerholzAlso, truck day for the Sox!

JayJaxon Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Now Tom Glavine and Greg Maddux are eligible to go to the Hall of Fame on the same day. I'm gonna book my ticket to Cooperstown that day for sure! EDIT: Frank Thomas just joined Maddux and Glavine on the 2014 Ballot. That is gonna be a crazy HOF year!

The_Admiral Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Can't in good conscience wave a virtually lifelong designated hitter into the Hall of Fame, but that's because I was born in the '80s with a soul from the '20s. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
