Certainly possible and I hope decent guys like Ibanez ARE clean. That said, if he has 55+ home runs at season's end, will you not even be a little bit curious? That would be eerily similar to Luis Gonzalez's 2001. Doughboys' post wasn't so much the PED bandwagon, but more about the empty challenge I...

Why is the variable for success immediately steroids? If he was still in Seattle with no protection on a last place team (more or less his career)and then started popping homers at 150% of his career clip...then I would raise flags. However, he's moved to Philadelphia, with protection up & down the ...

I'm sure Alexei Ramirez owners are happy to see his name not on the list - b/c he surely towards the top of that list April & most of May during the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Although he'll likely never match his full year run of 2007 (which arguably should be expected going into draft day), he does play to those numbers (pro-rated of course) co...

Luis Gonzalez - a good player, but his hit off of Mo' will resonate much longer than the embodiment of his career....especially if the Yanks can't capture that 'elusive' 27th ring.

This is like a scene right out of the Princess Bride...I'm sure someone knows what I'm talking about....

QUOTE]Prospectors - thanks - I like my team - but they are a young bunch. Coming out of the draft the teams that actually stood out to me were yours at the 10 spot. Scott Fleming's MINGALING squad from pick 13 and Steve Pappas's Electric Dream Machine at 14. I malso thought that Mike C on my right a...

Originally posted by Schwks: I will continue to draft Billingsley as normal. I do not see this as being analogous to an Ervin Santana or Lackey. Show me a pitcher without question marks: J Santana (elbow), Peavy (shoulder and San Diago offense), Webb (forearm),Beckett (consistency and off year), Lir...
