If Spring Training is any indication, the left-handed Ramirez could become one of the biggest steals of the season.

I do feel sorry for the guy on a personal level, but I can't help but be thankful that it's a division rival facing a pitching setback for a change. Yeah I know, it just seems like it's always the M's. Thomas Diamond is to have TJ surgery and is "expected" to be at full strength by next Spring Training.

I choke whenever I think about Chuck Armstrong.

Because it moves the M’s that much closer to having to pay the 10% surcharge on their profits. I think they only need 5 more years like 2006.

11 – Right, got to pay off those “accumulated losses”. The PFD will never collect a dime.

On RotoWillie – plus, he gets you a nice bonus of steals.

Letters! We get Letters! "Ben Broussard seems like an adequate fielder and more consistent hitter than Richie Sexson. Why not play Broussard at first base and trade Sexson and his contract for some good young prospects?"

I didn’t see Kenji throw much in Peoria, but almost all of the stolen bases I saw were off the pitcher. Chone Figgins had a huge jump on one of his stolen bases. Either the borderline pitching camdidates are too worried about the batters, or the coaches just said forget about the runners.

It can only get better once the season starts.

Tell me again why the PFD puts up with this?

Because it moves the M’s that much closer to having to pay the 10% surcharge on their profits. I think they only need 5 more years like 2006.

I will have you know that last night during my annual fantasy league draft with a bunch of guys around the country wee-Willie Bloomquist was drafted by one of the teams in the last round (10 team, 5×5, MLB, 24 Round Draft)…it was a truly shocking pick.

I’m in a 12 team, 6×6, AL-only league, and WFB usually only makes an appearance when a team has to fill a roster hole. His multiple positions are a plus, obviously, but when he’s just filler in a league where John Buck is someone’s starting catcher… yeah, that there is value.

Why would Larue do such a thing. We have not done anything to him. Well, I haven’t. I can’t speak for all who participate in the comment threads.

Larue is still threatening us with Benitez.
