Baseball - August 2006

In a book on the history of ballparks I was reading that the cubs, or whatever team they used to be called way back when. They played ball in the old West side grounds. I'm making an observation that something similar to that park and location would be the only legitimate way to truly replace Wrigley Field. It would have to be a complete throwback and yet have some characteristics of Wrigley. I know tons of people would probably disagree because of the scene in Wrigleyville, but it just might be able to be re-created in the suburbs and with a few more conveniences.Does this make sense to anyone? Can you say: today's attendance 65,252 What an awesome spectacle it could create.

A-Rod will have about 30 errors by season end at the pace he is going. Maybe more. Unless he breaks out offensively with timely hitting, some consistent power and RBI's over the course of the next 1/3 of the season, he's too much of a liability at 3rd base defensively. He truly has the yips just like Knobloch, who never recovered. What kills me is the guy displays no signs of disgust with his own play. Maybe because he's drank too much of his own koolaid and is too much of a prima-donna.

Do the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim continue to allow J.C. Romero to pitch for them? He has an e.r.a. of 7.54 in 37 innings. Ha! Ha! They actually pay this guy $ every week. His 2006 Salary is: $2,200,000. WOW!

I don't know what’s more idiotic their long team name, or the fact they still have this guy on their team.

Someone told me that the reason Manny wanted to be traded was that he had had an affair and his wife was demanding that they move so that he wouldn't see the woman anymore. Does anyone know anything about this?

Of course the answer is yes and they will not get past the first round. It must be weird in that clubhouse knowing that you have a great year going but have no chance to do anything with it.

Does anyone know where I can view these online, the specific one I want to see is the one with Craig Monroe doing a little dance in the dugout, I know it's a specialized question and chances are only people in Michigan will know what I'm talking about.

We haven't seen a winning season from these teams in ages. I believe the last time the Brewers had a record over .500 was 13 seasons ago. And I don't think the Devil Rays have ever had one.
