LOTS OF BASEBALL NEWS

Lots of baseball news, first there is the untimely passing of Kirby Puckett. Kirby is one of those opposing player you just have to love. He didn't look like a centerfielder but boy could he play it. God Bless You Kirby.

The Canadians upset the US Team today. I noticed A-Rod, Jeter, Damon and Clemens are all buddy-buddy in the dugout. Al Leiter announced he will retire after the World Baseball Classic and Roger Clemens is hinting he could go the same route.

Jarret Wright looked in mid season form tonight as he was pulled in the 3rd inning after seemlessly losing the strikezone. Also he seems to be wearing #34 this spring instead of #33. It didn't seem to help much.

Bernie Williams wasthe Team Puerto Rico DH Tuesday. Batting leadoff he knocked in the go-ahead run in the bottom of the fifth as his team scratched out a 2-1 win over Panama in the opening game of Pool C play in the World Baseball Classic. The PAnama team was originally suppose to be managed by former Bomber Roberto Kelly.

Hey. Nice blog here. It's always nice to see some Jaret bashing going on. Anyway, I'm new on the blog scene (2 or 3 weeks) but I think I've got a good blog going over at Crosstown Rivals (http://crosstownrivals.blogspot.com/)
The premise being a duel Mets/Yankees blog with my good friend handling Mets related posts while yours truly, a diehard Yankees fan, deals with the Bombers. But there's news going on as well. Feel free to check it out for yourself. Anyway, I was wondering if you would like to link to us on your site. We'd obviously do the same.
Thanks anyway:
