Baseball - June 2007

This question is for Tigers fans. I was looking through my grandparents' attic and found a baseball with signatures on it. Turns out, it is signed by the entire 1984 World Series Tigers team along with manager Sparky Anderson and the owner, Monaghan (sp?) Beautiful shape, the signatures are all clear. There are four hall of famers on this ball. So, how much is this ball worth?

does anyone have a good guess at how much a baseball (signed by all the players the first year of the original Bush Stadium) for the Saint Louis Cardinals would go for?
thanks for your answers

Come on, shout out for the team who has graced the diamond with colors that would make you upchuck your beer. Posting links to pictures of the jerseys would be helpful as well!

With 3 divisions & a wild card, winning 3 series to become champions, is being div. champ not exciting anymore?

Yanks were the best team in the AL, lost first round to the wild card. STL was the worst playoff team- won it all.

BOS, FLA, LAA- all wild card WS Champs.

I was glad to see the White Sox win it all in '05, they played hard during the season & passed through the postseason, but every WS since '02 has had a wild card play & last year, it was the wild card, who was a great team nonetheless, lose to the div. champ in a slumping division.

As a fan, it just seems like the teams just have a goal of making it to the post season, you don't have to do your best during the season, and then play real ball in Oct.

What's the point of busting your hump and getting tired when you could just be the wild card?

Not to say that its nothing to do something 26 other teams couldn't, but I sort of miss the days when you had to be the absolute best of the div/league during the regular season.

I've gotta say 3,000 hits. I know it takes skill to do both, but in this era of baseball 500 hrs is nothing. In the next 10-15 years there might be only 3 guys to reach 3,000 hits and about 15 guys to hit 500 homers. Timmy K from ESPN does a great job of explaining what I just said but he sounds better and he knows what he's talking about....he said 3,000 hits to

Listen im not one of those people who are gonna be doom and gloom but come on the pirates are horrible, can someone agree with me? Can you guys tell me if this is a good idea? Ive been looking at 3 diffrent clubs and seen that they suffer from small market disease as well but are decent or dominant clubs. 3) Colorado Rockies, rockies payroll is a little better but they arent pulling in yankee $s, i think they got a pretty stable team, they have a good mix of young talent, and a few good vets, 2) Tampa Bay Devil Rays, I know tampa is doing worse than us but they have some good talent out in their outfield, Roco Baldelli, Delmon Young, Carl Crawford. 1) minnesota twins, the twins are an excellent example, they are pretty low payroll but used good trading and scouting to make a fine team, their manager came from another small market team, they used farm and scout techniques, they got young pitching and hitting, but good veteran talent. pirates trade and get nothing for it, am i right?????

he would have been a hall of famer regardless but with the balco issue... the book that show's evidence about his use of steroid's... his trainer going to jail instead of testifying about what he gave barry.... his instant dimininshing play since there has been mandatory steriod's test's.

I'm not a baseball fan by any means, but I haven't lived under a rock my whole life, so I'm well aware of the NY Yankees. Everyone's talking about how they're struggling and changes need to be made, blah, blah, blah. Aren't they gonna make the playoffs anyway, like they always do?

Someone asked what is a "walk-off homerun." Of course I know that one but it got me thinking, and I ask what is your most memorable walk-off shot that your favorite team has hit?

The more detailed of an answer you can provide me the better. example: Was it a no-doubt shot to center feild, or was it a homerun that just barely cleared the outfeilder's glove over the wall? Was the pitcher wild, or was he pitching resonably well before tossing up a mistake? etc.

Everyone says and I guess its true that this game is exhibition only. In Australia we have two states play eachother in representitive rugby called the State of Origin it is a showcase of the best players and provides a three game series which get the best games every year showcasing the best talent.

What would you do to make the ALL Star game count and be the best competitive game of the season.?

I'm a Pittsburgh Pirates fan, been there my whole life. I cannot watch this kind of wreched baseball anymore. For the past 14 (soon to be 15) seasons, I have sat in utter amazement as to why this team cannot win. Here's a stat for everyone: during the past 15 years, every other team in Major League Baseball has posted a .500 record or better except for the Pirates and Tampa Bay Devil Rays. Even the Kansas City Royals and Washington Nationals (Montreal Expos) have had winning seasons! I'm beyond comprehension as to how a GM who's been on the job for the past 6 and a half seasons cannot draft a decent player, sign a decent free agent, or put together a decent team. This is completely insane! There are better guys (and in the case of Kim Ng in Los Angeles, women) that can get the job done in the front office! In fact, Littlefield makes his predecessor, Cam Bonifay, look like Branch Rickey!

Has anyone else ever noticed that on sports channels and websites, anything they're showing baseball scores, the Cardinals are almost always the last team shown? If you don't believe me, go to Yahoo! Sports and watch the Cardinal's games over the next week. They'll almost always be listed in the bottom quarter of scores shown.

I used to think it had to do with how they were arranged alphabetically, but I don't think that has anything to do with it.
