Now, you know that every mom tells you she doesn't have a favorite. Of course we pick on my mom. And depending upon what is going on at the time, we tell her that we know that either one of my two sisters is the favorite.

How was his first semester?
------------ Fuzzy...he had a great semester....He likes his classes, likes the school and loves the city...plus he had 4 "A"s and 2 "A-"s for a 3.86 GPA...not bad for his 1st semester! Thanks for asking!
As a small market club we've got to make small moves, but as Dylan said we've signed Randy Wolfe and Doug Davis. Two average to above average starters that eat a lot of innings and keep their team in the game.
Our bullpen is vastly improved.
Yesterday we signed Jim Edmonds and Jeff Inglett to deals. Two minor parts but guys that bring some great experience to the team along with their on the field skills.
I think it's gonna be a good year!
The Cubs haven't gotten better, just older. The Cardinals are ok, but not really scary.
LET'S GET THIS SEASON STARTED!!!!! WOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
yeah, I expect him to play a fairly big role for us. Corey Hart has had injury and performance problems, I could see Edmonds filling in a lot.
I think Melvin also likes the motivation Edmonds will have to play against former teams like the Cubs and Cardinals. That's 36 games on our schedule. Always good to have a lil' extra motivation goin' for ya.
I'm still hoping we sign Mark Mulder to a minor league deal. He'd be reunited with his pitching coach from Oakland, which I think makes us a front-runner to sign him. Can't have enough arms in camp.
So how about your Phillies? I haven't paid much attention. Gonna be a big year?
I don't pay attention too much in the off season. Recently they resigned Victorino, Ruiz, Blanton. They still have the core guys. Traded Lee away (boooo). Traded in Halliday. Signed a backup catcher - Brian Schnieder. I think Matt Stairs was let go too.
