Too true re Boras. He's handling J.D. Drew's contract, too. Could be "Adios, J.D." for the Braves this winter...
sox'd be crazy not to re-sign tek, peetey & d-lowe...

Depends on other team's offers and their demands...it's not that easy, and I can guarantee they're not going to sign all of them.
It's hard to keep a WS champ together. Look at the Marlins...they lost a couple guys right off the bat and missed the playoffs by a few games.
Everyday now there's an article in the NY Times re Beltran going to the Yankees. Must admit that I saw this coming. Move over, Bernie!
twinkie johann santana won the AL cy young -- no surprise there...
Why a twinkie, Region? (I admit I don't follow the AL as much as I should...)
i just hope they never rename the cy young award to the clemens award...
Report: Giambi testified he used steroids, HGH
wonder if he'll also come clean on the mysterious health issue...

Not so fast there, Musketeer:
Quote:Angels may be top of Beltran's list, but Anaheim's apparently not interested
Astros set to pitch $13.5 million a year for coveted free agent
The Astros have been told that the Carlos Beltran sweepstakes are "yours to lose."
Agent Scott Boras may have told other teams similar things, but the words have impact nevertheless.
Houston Chronicle
It would be fine with me if Beltran stays with Houston. I hate the idea of Steinbrenner buying anyone he decides he wants.
In the meanwhile, this Giambi story is getting interesting. The NY Times reports that NYY will want to void their contract with the former slugger...
Now I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop: Barry Bonds.
The difference in how his face looks in the two photos is enough of an indication of science at work. Doesn't even look like the same guy...
His head grew so much that he went up two hat sizes (or something like that).
That simply does not happen.
he's about halfway toward the desired result --
You wouldn't like him when he's angry.
Question: Giambi fesses-up but Bonds stone-walls.
Why?
bonds needs a baker's dozen or so to pass ruth, then another 42 to be the HR king.
he's said he wants to pass ruth... his ego prolly won't allow him to retire in peace until he hits #756.
maybe giambi fess't up bcos of his health?
