Did you really have to soil this spread with the world's most famous spitter!!

Kate Upton is a spitter?

I have never had that problem with her myself.

Lots of great #9's, but let's go with an old dude who just kept hitting...#9 in your program but #1 in your heart...Minnie Miñoso!

Sorry, Steve, still Chicago, but at least a different team!

We are a Mickey Mantle home run away from placing our bets in the Bellagio sportsbook!!

A week from now, many of you will be travelling to Las Vegas, or like Tom and I, already there waiting for the fun to begin. And since we still have snow everywhere here in Wisconsin, all I can see is CAN'T WAIT!!

See ya in 7 days.

A few days ago someone mentioned that there were too many Cubs

and Mets and Yankees and Braves pictures in this thread, so today I thought I would spread the love to a few other teams, all thanks to Mark DeRosa..............

Yes! He also played with the Cubs

Here are a couple of pictures of Mrs. DeRosa

I'm not sure what number she wears, but my guess is 34B

Thanks.

I have to say, I love the second photo of Musial. The old-school zip-up uniform top, the belted pants. Full stirrups and spikes that have the shoelace flap. Classic!!

ONLY 5 DAYS TO MARCH MADNESS IN LAS VEGAS!!! BRING IT ON GUYS!!

Photos please!!

Let me just say before we start getting to the draft spots that Tom and I ARE SICK OF FREAKIN' WINTER!!! I'm not kidding you. I spent the last hour shoveling more snow and we didn't even get hit as bad as other parts of Wisconsin and Minnesota. This winter just won't end.

3 inches of snow last night. The snow piles are so high that when you throw the snow on top of the piles, the snow just rolls back down to your feet. Seriously. I can barely snow blow the snow above my snowbanks around the house. They're too high. It's going to be a high of 23 today here ON MARCH 16TH!!! Last year around St. Patrick's Day it was 83 here and everything started budding too early (killed the cherry trees, lilacs, etc. when it froze throughout April). But c'mon, can we get to spring already?

Okay, 5 DAYS TO VEGAS TOM!!! CALGON, TAKE US AWAY!!!

4.5 hours until Lorraine and I fly out of Buffalo to Las Vegas!!! We thought it would never arrive. Same type of crappy weather here in Rochester!! I am happy I cut down on my leagues this year!!

Great array of photos Russel. Very nicely done. Wow, and to think I was just thinking of Joe DiMaggio. Many more great #5's after him.

Greg, it has been 90 the last few days, but I want you to know that I refuse to turn my AC on

(despite the fact that it was 83 inside my house when I got home last night just in time for the Ides of March DC Express at 5 pm).

That's nothing though, I recall a few yrs ago watching a young Dodgers rookie named Clayton Kershaw pitch against the Rockies at Hi-Corbett Field, it was 93......on Feb. 28th

Man, did I get sunburned that day.

See ya soon buddy, hang in there

Greg Ambrosius · Post by **Greg Ambrosius** » Sat Mar 16, 2013 10:01 am

Yeah, I see the West is scorching this weekend. I think Las Vegas was going to be 86 today; Phoenix 89. That's pretty hot for mid-March, but all of us from the Nort' der would sure love to see some of that next week. Keep it going for us!!
