OFFSEASON RECAP
Toronto actually makes a somewhat smart move
The Blue Jays have ceased to stop spending their money on over-the hill players who were never under the hill to begin with. The new starting catcher for the Blue Jays is Tony Pena. Pena agreed to a 4-year contract worth more than 3.5 million dollars a year. Pena, who played last year for the Pittsburgh Pirates hit .298 with 15HR's.
Pena is now a Blue Jay, where he will fit in wonderfully in Toronto
In a draft full of big boppers Astros decide Magadan is their man
The Astros who were blessed with the #1 pick in a draft stock full of future superstars those of which included Mark McGwire, Barry Bonds, Rafael Palmerio, and Greg Maddux. The Astros apparently believe Dave Magadan's talent is superior to these guys. Magadan plays 1st and will start in A.
Magadan practicing his dumb look
Cleveland has found someone to man the hot corner for many years
Mark McGwire was taken 2nd in the draft Friday, with amazing power potential and a very sharp eye. McGwire has perhaps the potential to eclipse both the single season and all-time homerun record. But only time will tell.
Mark looks to add Major League homers to his wussy college bombs
Willy Mays part deux?
Detroit who were planning on picking either Greg Maddux or Kal Daniels lucked out when the Astros drafted Dave Magadan 1st overall. Because that allowed Barry Bonds to fall down to #3 overall. Barry has basically the same talents as his father Bobby but according to scouts a lot more of it.
Barry with the Alaska Goldpanners when he was kidnapped by the crazy lumberjack coach of the Goldpanners.
Schmidt will go for 500 in Chicago
Mike Schmidt signed with the White Sox for a rich contract of 4-years for 9+ million a year to play 3rd base and lock up a spot in the Hall of Fame. Schmidt who has 472 homers in his career, barring injury should eclipse the holy grail in homers.
Schmidt, who is about to beat the crap of they guy who is taking this picture, will be the cornerstone for the White Sox offense
The 1986 Season begins tommorow!!!!!!!!!
Or maybe tonight if I feel like posting it
