Hello right-handed Daryl Strawberry.

Everybody needs somebody to love... I need Yu, Yu, Yu! I need Yu, Yu, Yu!

I hope I haven't offended the Blues Brothers with this.

This year is going to be interesting

I bet quite a few teams will offer their full bonus to one player in an effort to land the truly elite talents. How will players make their decisions? And is this truly the best way for teams to go about allocating their bonus money?

Every player wants to be a Ranger. I feel bad for the many that won't get to live the dream.

Poor guys

I hate The Angels so much, it's actually cramping my style. (See RevHaloFans SBN profile page)

I'm curious about this, too.

There really seems to be only two options: you either blow your wad on the one elite player or spread money around on lesser known or thought-of guys.

I wonder if there will be any loopholes

to exploit.

Oh yes

Sickels/Cameron/etc mentioned this recently with regards to when a new CBA would be negotiated, i.e. “when the loopholes in the new system are blown wide open.”
