The Giants would become overnight favorites to win the NL West with Ramirez and the pitching staff they have already assembled.
As for the Dodgers, no worries, they would still have Juan Pierre to fill Ramirez's shoes in left field.
Smoking ban leads to major drop in heart attacks according to a new study published by the Centers for Disease Control's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. This was basically a case-control study, comparing heart attack rates in Pueblo, CO to two control sites (Pueblo County outside the city limits; and El Paso County, which includes Colorado Springs).

2 years, $17.5M, reportedly, with options and stuff, plus they give up a first-round pick to Colorado. Last year, league average ERA for a relief pitcher was 4.09. Marcel the Monkey projects Fuentes to have a 3.69 FIP next year. Probably an overpay, but there's plenty of upside.
Even though Joe C bothers with errors and fielding percentage, I give him a bunch of credit for pointing this out and at least throwing some RZR/OOZ in there.
19 of Bora's 20 free agents remain unsigned. Will Boras wane in his influence? Will Mark Teixeira get a bazillion dollars? Stay tuned.
ESPN reports that Yankee Stadium bleacher seats for exhibition opener to cost 25 cents. Cool enough. But it also reports that some seats in the new stadium are priced at $2500 a game. That's over $200,000 for a season ticket.
The Paper of Record doles out sage advice on Grabbing a Bite Between Flights at (or Near) Seven Airports.
Snowman declared a public nuisance. Will they lock him up in the Cooler?
Headline in Strib: Paris Hilton's ex busted for Fargo bar fight. Once you get past the obvious joke, you might wonder why this fact is newsworthy at all. I'm saying it isn't.
Seriously. In this universe, who names their kid "Adolf Hitler"?

Would you feel differently if the guy was able to prescribe drugs? Some Zanax, maybe? (And really, beyond admission to the museum, what money are "the idiots" parting with?)
Me? I'd suggest a stroll through the Whitney's wonderful permanent collection. It could do a person's psyche a world of good.

Now on the list for my next jaunt to th' Lair. I ended up buying a pair of tix (from my syndicate buddy) to yanquis/Twin duel in July, so I'll try to work this in. Surprised the Whitney doesn't have more of their permanent collection online (or I couldn't find it). Always up for some Bauhaus as well.

Me, too. It might be that such a small percentage of it is up at one time. (They rotate it quite often.) Always something interesting to see there, however. I've seen three of my all-time favorite shows at the Whitney--retrospectives of Franz Kline, Joan Mitchell and Edward Hopper.
Speaking of Hopper, He's got a big show in Chicago right now. It's up until May 10. Highly recommended for anyone traveling to The Windy City.

let him prescribe Levitra. Then it would be performance art.

Another phallus-y.

Wow. Ribbed for our (viewing) pleasure.
actually, I really like that one. What does that say about me? (oops. now I'm putting E-6 in the analyst chair; better hold onto my wallet!)
