Very happy. Maddux is my all time favorite player and I have always been a fan of Thomas and Glavine as well. Too bad about Biggio.

Everyone fell except Biggio and Piazza. Next year is even more loaded, with Randy Johnson, Pedro Martinez, and John Smoltz among the candidates. Unless there's a dearth of candidates soon, some of these fringe guys have no shot of snagging late entry.
Sad to see Barry miss out again. I want to be excited for three excellent choices but it's hard when there are so many deserving guys left on the ballot. I don't know if Edgar is ever going to make it in. What a tragedy that would be.
Better get used to it. IF anything he'll be elected in 13 years if only by the veterans committee.
Paul LoDuca was eligible? :lol:
No posts that A-Rod is suspended for all of the 2014 season??
I stopped caring.

Yankees are probably happy about this. It frees over $20 million for them I think.
$26m freed up. They'll just pour more money into their bid for Tanaka. With the Yankees and Dodgers having limitless money, that posting fee is going to be ridiculous.
Which is why Jeff Passan is not realistic about the Cubs in terms of their spending abilities. Him and Brett Taylor were debating and discussing the direction of the team on Twitter.

Surprised to see A-Rod actually follow through and file suit. He has almost no chance of having the decision overturned and it means the arbitrator's decision is now a public exhibit. Plus he has to pay even more legal fees on top of his already considerable pile. I really don't see how this benefits him in any way but I guess he really doesn't want to lose that 25 million (not that I blame him).
Over $30m per for Kershaw...
@ramonashelburne
The Dodgers and Clayton Kershaw have agreed on a seven year, $215 million contract, sources have told ESPN. Out after five.
I don't care if he's for the kids. I hate the new Cubs mascot. I'm starting to become disgruntled about the Cubs rebuild.

BREAKING: Tanaka to #Yankees, seven years, $155M, opt-out after fourth year.
Crossing my fingers for another Dice K.
SHOCKED that the Yankees signed Tanaka...
... said no one ever.

So... the team with the most money to throw around signed the guy looking for the biggest bidder? Got it.Quoting Raiders (view post)
I honestly thought he going to the Dodgers. Yankees needed him more but LA has basically unlimited funds.
Dice-K helped the Red Sox win a World Series before his career went into the shitter. The Yankees still lack depth at shortstop and second base. I'll take the Rays and the Sox over them in the division.

Tomorrow is truck day!
Ugh, Jeter announces retirement and his last game of 2014 is at Fenway.
It was time. Glad he's doing it now instead of dragging it out to where he was almost demoted to the minors like Todd Helton.Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)
Yeh but now we have a full season of everyone sucking his dick and another Fenway tribute.
Marlins are mad that they charged extra $$$ for tickets when the Red Sox come to town and the Red Sox put out a minor league lineup.
Fuck off Miami.
I'm debating whether to play fantasy baseball this year. The season is so long...but I won a league two seasons ago and placed third in another league. Hmmm...
