Official MLB thread

[n00b on demand]

i thought i would start a thread for all the baseball fans out there. Anyone can post any and all baseball info in this very thread. Tonight was full of blockbuster deals and possible deals. Looks like the big unit is headed to the yankees . Doesnt anyone find it absurd that the yankees payroll is over 200 mil while the devil rays have a payroll of 32 mil? My phillies got keny lofton and john lieber....dont think thats going to make a world of difference but if pat burrel can return to his form from 2 years ago i think we have a shot although the NL East is going to be very interesting with the mets aquisition of pedro and the braves getting Tim hudson and having a great starting rotation.
