MLB is sending the A's and Boston to Tokoyo for the season opener - here's the link on MLB.com
How to you feel about that?
Is this just a gimick because they have Dice-K?
And what about the Pads and the Dodgers playing in China?

I think a case could be made for the Braves teams of the mid to late 90s. THey had three likely hall of famers at their peak, plus Denny Neagle, who wasn't great but was very good for a few years.

I'd be shocked because it's obvious that either the Pirates or Nationals will win it.

I mean, look at his numbers (ignoring wins and losses) and compare them to the rest of the league in 1999 and 2000. People knew he was great, but I don't quite think they realized how great:

I mean, he had a 1.74 ERA when the league ERA was 4.91 and the SECOND BEST ERA in the league was 3.70! That's insane!

He set major league records in 2000 for lowest batting average allowed (.167) and lowest WHIP (.737). No one even touched those numbers in the dead ball era, and he did it in one of the biggest offensive eras in history.

The only drawback is that he pitched just 213 and 217 innings in 1999 and 2000, respectively. But when you consider the eye popping rate numbers, the smaller strike zone, the lower mound, juiced up opponents (I'm assuming Pedro's clean, though you never really know), and the fact that he started half his games in Fenway Park, you gotta appreciate how great he was.

I could easily list 20 players who have been robbed of recognition, Tommy John, Bert Byleven, Dave Concepcion, Jim rice, Dale Murphy, Andre Dawson, Bob Boone, thats off the top of my head. Seems like they are penalized because the steroid wonders could come back from injuries and perform at higher levels as well as a shrunken and lowered strike zone where guys golf balls for hits rather than getting handcuffed by high fastballs of the past.

A few years back they had characters such as Pedro, Millar, ect. Now, they just bore me. I'm a Cubs fan and watch them on WGN. I used to be a hard core Red Sox fan even though I watched the Cubs. Now they almost like the Yankees.

Back a few years ago baseball turned their heads and didn't care.
They knew ( had too) players were using steroids. It's doctors orders in some cases. I have been shot with steroids and so has my daughter to aid in healing in injuries.
If hitters are using to bulk up, then don't pitchers need to do what they can to compensate?
Sure now it's not allowed, but back in the day nobody cared because it helped the sport make money.
What is your thought on this?

He's just as guilty as Bonds and yet he still gets treated less severely.
