Steve Marsh! You leave me no choice...

But to broadcast this in public....

Dontrelle Willis is on record as thinking he can win 20 games this year...

and you have said nothing... NOTHING...

Sir, your silence if deafening...

[Steve]

That's not silence. That's heartache.

Didn't you guys pick up one of those kid poitchers from Tampa?

Won't that solve all your problems?

Here's the projected starting batteries:

Catcher   James Skelton (Where is that spark plug Branadon Inge??)


No. 1 Starter   Justin Verlander
No. 2 Starter   Rick Porcello
No. 3 Starter   Dontrelle Willis
No. 4 Starter   Jeremy Bonderman
No. 5 Starter   Nate Robertson
Closer   Joel Zumaya

It looks great on paper, but last year looked good on paper too. One screwed up finger on Zumaya, a little twinge in a shoulder, a compressed nerve in an elbow...damn, I hate those fickle gods of athletics.

Maybe Brandon decided he'd like to be able to walk when he's 45? Is he still at third?

I'd be cautiously optimistic, I think if it holds, you'll be ok, and buyers when the time comes...

By the way, pedro martinez is available...

We are already paying more than almost all clubs for salaries and last year we finished 5th in the division by only one game!
