My Blogs arent going to be as long froim now on I can't stay focused unless there is something that truly deserves a good rant.
Ok trades worth mentioning:
Cliff Lee and Ben Francisco to the Phillies
This is great for Philly Ben Francisco is an underrated bat, and with the Philadelphia offense Lee should be able to keep afloat, but if he can't handle the hitters park his confidence will go right down the drain and Lee doesn't bounce back well or quickly I'll miss Lee being in the AL you can trust him to slip up pitching to you. On the other hand Ranger killer Ben Francisco going with him is well worth it.
Former Pirates to various locations
Watch out or Pittsburgh in the coming years Garrett Jones and Andrew McCutchen are going to lead the pack of young players coming up.
David Ortiz tested positive in 2003 for PEDs. Ortiz did not know this as the list that his name leaked out of was supposed to remain anonymous. "Big Papi" is known quite well for making statements against PED users that some could find radical. My feeling is that Ortiz trusted that the list would keep quiet and he could look like someone based on their statements would be dead set against such things. Before coming to Boston Ortiz clearly weighed less as a Minneasota Twin. Before 2002 in 1200 career plate appearances he had only 38 homeruns. He matched that total three years in a row '04-'06. He says he's shocked at the positive test because of his character rather than his actions.
