RedSox44 234 Posted February 18, 2012 Perhaps because blue jays actually have a decent portion of their bodies in gray coloring.EDIT: sorry for the massive picture, guys. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don 7 Posted February 19, 2012 Mike Cameron announced his retirement instead of camping with the Nats. That brings the CF competition/platoon down to Rick Ankiel, Roger Bernadina, and Jason Werth (but only if Bryce Harper is ready to go at the start of the season). 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AlMagz 0 Posted February 21, 2012 Yankees finally sign Ibanez for 1.1m plus incentives (can make up to 4m) ... just dont know why they had to "clear room" for him by trading Burnett, if it was only 1.1m that should be affordable even with AJ. Also sounds like they will sign Chavez soon.In other random signing news. Manny Ramirez will sign with the A's for 500k. Still has to sit out 50 games. Moneyball at its finest. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Raysfan12 129 Posted February 21, 2012 I'll not be too biased about this, but these are my award winnersAL MVP: Evan Longoria- The reason is that Albert and Prince have an elite supporting cast; Prince with Miguel Cabrera and Albert with Vernon Wells and Trumbo. Evan last year, especially in September, was basically carring his team to the postseason. If he has a breakout season and takes his team to the postseason, he will win the MVP.AL Cy Young: Justin Verlander- Same as Evan, but for pitchers.AL Rookie of the Year: Matt Moore- I believe that he will have an amazing season with 18 wins and an ERA less than 3.00. If he wins this year, the Rays wiil have two straight rookie of the year winners (Hellickson- 2011).NL MVP: Joey Votto- With Prince and Albert gone, this makes it easier for Joey to win the award. Also, he faces the same problem with Evan Longoria with the lineup. I think he will destroy NL Central pitching this year.NL Cy Young: Roy Halladay- Albert and Prince's disapperance will make it easier for Roy to strike out batters.NL Rookie of the Year: Bryce Harper- He would win it, if he is on the starting lineup. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
