It is that simple, what he did was no worse that drug abuse or steroids, and, he played the game clean and his offense was as a manager. I grew up playing third base and Pete Rose was my hero. IF Roger Clemens gets into the HOF, then, Pete Rose should go in hands down. PETE ROSE should be in the HOF.

Daniel Murphy may not be our 1B of future, but he is going to have a 15 year career for some team as a 20 HR, .290 hitting 3B … I think he could do that this year. He will be a very solid pro, and he has trade value. I don’t know if Murphy and Pelfrey with prospect FMart is TOO much for Halladay but I think it is should be very attractive to Toronto.

However, I'd be very surprised if the owners will agree to bring in a true commissioner - someone like a Mario Cuomo or a George Mitchell. More than likely it will be another Selig clone.

For LF, you have guys like Bay and Holliday and for a #2 you have Lackey. You can't sign one of the big LF's and still sign Lackey. You can sign one or the other. Say you sign Lackey. There aren't really other good LF's. Sure there is Ankiel and Willingham but that isn't really god enough. So let's say you sign Bay or Holliday first. You can get Sheets as your #2 and get Wolf or Marquis for your #3. Also, I don't think the Mets will end up with Halladay and Agon won't be traded anymore. Halladay won't be on the Mets because, I doubt the Mets would want to sign Doc's extension going through 40 years. I think that Boston will pick him up.

Guess again! Holliday will make a perfect #3 hitter 15-20 HR's with a 330 BA. If your looking for a clean up hitter ? Adrian Gonzalez is our man !!!!
