ok. I'll take the bears plus 20.

If they win by 20 or lose by 20. I couldnt care less.

It was disgusting what Bonds did in 2004 but this is even worse. They are freakin stats and should remain public domain.

http://www.fantasysportsmag.com/Default.as...01#2401Articles The NFL, Nascar, PGA have all joined with MLB to fight the Fantasy Sports world against free use of statistics.

The only interest I have in this game is what I'm going to drink during it.

Great Job so far. Next year you should make your picks with the point spread.

Rutgers 38 Kent State 17

Diamondbacks acquired LHP Doug Davis, LHP Dana Eveland and OF Dave Krynzel from the Brewers for C Johnny Estrada, RHP Claudio Vargas and RHP Greg Aquino.

Astros signed outfielder Carlos Lee, who had been with the Rangers, to a six-year, $100 million contract.

Last year was the first time in his 7 yr career he had over 500 abs

In what looks like the dumbest move of the off season so far, Angels agreed to terms with outfielder Gary Matthews Jr., who had been with the Rangers, on a five-year, $50 million contract. Gary Mathews Jr is 32 yrs old and coming off a career year.

ESPN.com is reporting that the Dodgers and outfielder Juan Pierre have agreed to a five-year, $45 million contract.

Dodgers re-signed first baseman Nomar Garciaparra to a two-year contract. The deal has been reported to be worth $18 million.

Its Official. Soriano a Cub. 8 yrs 136 million. Now they have 3 of the best power hitters in the game with a bunch of garbage surrounding them. Cubs will never win a WS. http://www.sportsline.com/mlb/story/9818105 BTW, Pierre is a FA and is in serious discussions with the Dodgers.

The Cubs are close to signing Alfonso Soriano, perhaps for as much as $135 million over eight seasons, FOXSports.com's Ken Rosenthal reports. According to ESPN's Peter Gammons, the Reds and Alex Gonzalez have agreed to terms on a three-year, $14 million contract, pending a physical. According to FOXSports.com's Ken Rosenthal, a rival executive said the White Sox are about to trade Jon Garland. Interesting. Freddy Garcia, Javier Vazquez and Mark Buehrle were all coming up in rumors more than Garland, who is owed $22 million over the next two years and then will be a free agent. Rosenthal is guessing that Garland is on his way to Texas, with John Danks perhaps involved in the deal. The White Sox are also believed to be interested in relievers Akinori Otsuka and Nick Masset. A Garland trade would clear the way for Brandon McCarthy to join the rotation.

Six weeks after he was fired by Florida, Girardi won the NL honor Wednesday for keeping the rookie-laden Marlins in contention nearly all season. Jim Leyland took the AL award after a quick turnaround with the Detroit Tigers. A rookie skipper himself, Girardi beat out Willie Randolph of the New York Mets by a comfortable margin to become the first Manager of the Year with a losing record. "I don't know if vindication is a good word, just because as a manager, you want to manage," Girardi said. He received 18 of 32 first-place votes and totaled 111 points in balloting by the Baseball Writers' Association of America. Randolph got eight first-place votes and 81 points. "It's nice that people who watch the game every day understood what we accomplished," Girardi said, adding he wasn't particularly surprised to win. "We had a lot of good things happen." Leyland turned around the long-moribund Tigers in his first year with the team, leading them to the World Series and their first winning season since 1993. He received 19 of 28 first-place votes and 118 points to top Minnesota's Ron Gardenhire, who was listed first on nine ballots and totaled 93 points. "I knew that we had something here. I thought it would take longer than it did. This team started believing," Leyland said. "We had good players going into spring training, but we didn't have a very good team. We made ourselves a good team, and that's something I'm very proud of."

The Detroit Tigers announced Thursday they have agreed to terms on a one-year contract with first baseman Sean Casey. The Cubs acquired left-handed reliever Neal Cotts from the Chicago White Sox on Thursday in exchange for relief pitcher David Aardsma and minor-league pitcher Carlos Vasquez.

NEW YORK -- Johan Santana won the AL Cy Young Award on Thursday for the second time in three years, and the Minnesota Twins' ace was a unanimous choice once again. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2664561

According to ESPN's Jerry Crasnick, Frank Thomas will get a two-year, $23 million contract from the Blue Jays. and on the Rumor side; The Padres are displaying interest in free agent Barry Bonds, sources tell FOXSports.com's Ken Rosenthal. Agent Jeff Borris won't confirm any specific interest in Bonds, but he's still trying to make it look like everyone wants him. "There are some teams that are being very aggressive in their pursuit of Barry and they're turning up the heat," Borris said. "There are teams that want answers and they want them quickly. There are some owners who have requested meetings with Barry." Bonds could be a huge asset in the middle of San Diego's lineup when healthy. However, if the Padres were really planning to sign him, keeping the right-handed-hitting Ben Johnson as a reserve would have made sense. Maybe they have plans for a superior fourth outfielder.

Cubs signed infielder-outfielder Mark DeRosa, who had been with the Rangers, to a three-year, $13 million contract. According to Paul Hoynes of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, the Rays have won the bidding for Akinori Iwamura. The Yakult Swallows will likely make it official on Wednesday or Thursday. Iwamura makes a lot of sense for Tampa Bay. He can start at third base over B.J. Upton or play second base, with Jorge Cantu moving to first. There are significant doubts about his power will play in the U.S., but he has upside and the Rays were smart to gamble on him.

Webb Recieved 15 of the 32 First Place votes. The only truly awful choice would have been Trevor Hoffman, who received 12 first-place votes and finished second with 77 points, 26 behind Webb. Carpenter was third with two first-place votes and 63 points. Oswalt received three first-place votes, but because he was left off 19 ballots, he finished with 31 points. Also receiving votes were Carlos Zambrano (six points), Billy Wagner (four), John Smoltz (three) and Takashi Saito (one).

Mets re-signed RHP Orlando Hernandez to a two-year, $12 million contract with a club option for 2008.

Yea. That sucks to be him.

The Red Sox bid $42 million for the rights to Daisuke Matsuzaka, sources told ESPN's Peter Gammons, and Boston's bid far exceeded any other team's offer.
