"Willingham is battling some soreness in his right knee, the Marlins web site reports." -espn.com

I'm a republican. :whistle

ESPN also said 100 million when he is all but guaranteed over 200. Gotta love the typos.

On the ESPN.com video preview for tonight, Tim talked about Luis Castillo and Alex Gonzalez taking grounders, then messing around afterwards ("Gonzalez could do things with a baseball I've never seen before"). Jeff Brantley discussed Juan Pierre covering ground in the "nooks and crannies" of our football stadium, Tino Martinez talked about Charles Johnson, and to wrap up they mention Pudge. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?page=webgems

"The New York Post reports that Mets catcher Paul Lo Duca, who is going through a divorce, is having an affair with a 19-year-old girl. On the bright side, unlike most Mets catchers Lo Duca won't have to defend his sexual orientation." http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/writ...ex.html?cnn=yes Has anyone heard anything about this? This may be in the wrong forum - if so, I apologize.

good points, thanks!

Simple question: If the Marlins feel like they have a chance at the wildcard, and they become buyers instead of sellers (theoretically), do you think they would invest in Juan Pierre? His contract isn't extreme, and we could maybe get him for relatively little. Seeing as how the Cubs suck and Juan Pierre is having an off season, it would easily solve our center-field problems. "So who is going to get traded? Too early to answer that question with any certainty. But all of these players will almost certainly be out there (or are already): Pitchers: Jeff Weaver, Rodrigo Lopez, Bruce Chen, John Thomson, Jason Johnson, Kyle Lohse, Victor Santos, Kip Wells, Oliver Perez, Odalis Perez, Glendon Rusch, Ramon Ortiz, Jeremy Affeldt, Elmer Dessens, Roberto Hernandez, Salomon Torres, Damaso Marte, Chris Reitsma, Rudy Seanez, Joe Borowski. Hitters: Craig Wilson, Jose Guillen, Juan Pierre, Julio Lugo, Aubrey Huff, Shannon Stewart, Rondell White, Mark Grudzielanek, Reggie Sanders, Tony Graffanino, Matt Stairs, Jay Payton, Bobby Kielty, David Dellucci, Jeff Conine, Kevin Millar, Jeromy Burnitz.
