I agree with you DWI. I didn't like the guy when he played for Seattle. May be him being better than DJ2 had something to do with it. I am starting to know what kinda player he is :) He will regarded as a complete player after he hoists the championship as a Yankees ;) DJ2, Many and others should thank him for their Salary. I still can not believe he signed 10 years 252 mil contract DWI, how can you mention Ortiz as a MVP??? Have you checked the stats??? and I guess you don't watch Red Sox games that much. he is a part time player and he is not the MVP of their ballclub even Red Sox fans will even admit that :) One of the ESPN analyst said it?s their captain Varitek, what you Bostonians say? Don Mattingly is the greatest first baseman ever to wear pinstripes. He deserves the RING (as a coach is fine :p) I wished he had played one more year so he could have won the ring as a player. got a Q tho DWI, how can all these Yankees pitchers can get hot at the same & RIGHT time? Big Unit seems finally healthy and is a legit #1. Rotation of Big Unit- Mussina - Chacon - Wright seems formidable. NL is getting interesting too.................
