Saved for news.

News for now is this. If anyone wants to do Fantasy baseball here on VGC, PM me. I have been working it over and thinking about it for a while now. Never really did it before, but I think it would be fun here. Also this thread may be slow for a little bit since the baseball season has not really started yet, but it will pick up.

Wow! Just Wow! What an interesting year. Some of you may be too pre-occupied with...Lol....Soccer to have noticed, but this has been a very interesting year! Sadly, if the regulars do not compete, ratings could go down. Let's hope not.

(I will leave this here, I loved Griffey Jr.!)Team that I hope will do well? Seattle Mariners. I also hope that Griffey Jr. comes back soon as some sort of coach. Or just Rickey Henderson it and come back and play. So many injuries. Such a sad last Ten years of play time for him.

I am rooting for Mariners in 2014 as usual, Pirates and Royals. Just because I like to see Baseball successful everywhere.

Remembering Ruth's big league debut 100 years ago

The Babe pitched seven innings, allowing two earned runs in a win over Cleveland

Cal Ripken Jr.: Mother's kidnapping 'bizarre', still searching for answers

CBS/AP) BALTIMORE - Hall of Fame infielder Cal Ripken Jr. says his family and the police are still searching for answers about the kidnapping of his mother last week, a crime he called "bizarre" and unsettling.

At a news conference Friday in Baltimore, Ripken appealed for the public's help in locating the man responsible for kidnapping his 74-year-old mother, Vi, at gunpoint. Vi Ripken was found unharmed in her car on Wednesday, July 25 after the one-day ordeal, but Ripken says she remains shaken up and is too traumatized to return home in Aberdeen, Md.

Earlier Friday, Cal Ripken told ABC's "Good Morning America" that his mother is a tough woman, but her sense of security has been violated.

Ripken appeared to choke up as he described a phone call from his sister last week indicating that his mother might be missing. He said it was "a horrible night."

Great stuff! That music makes me want to kick Tim McCarver in the kneecap gently. I would punch him in the face, but he's way too old to do that to.

I would possibly do a fantasy thing if there was enough interest. If not, I will just post about how bad the Cubs are doing all year.

You do not think that the Cubs new coach is going to be able to turn anything around this Season? :)

Not sure why I cannot copy and paste anymore?

The team has actually gotten weaker this off season. 

The only thing that new Cubs manager Dale Sveum might turn around is the Gatorade machine just to punish his players.

Let's go Oakland *clap clap clapclapclap*!

We're totally going to suck in this 'rebuilding year', aren't we? :(

Anyhow, thanks for making this thread. I was planning on starting one for MLB as the season opener drew closer, but now I won't have to put in any effort. :D

And I envy/pity Detroit fans. The team's going to cruise into the playoffs...but that doesn't automatically mean they're going to actually be any good.

Go Cardinals!

I'd love for the Blue Jays to win but it isn't going to happen.

I do not know. They were able to push out .500 baseball last year , everyone seems to be healthy as well. Could do well this year. Still, as usual they have tough teams to contend with. Wild card could be an option though. Which I think and still do think was a great addition to baseball. Give people a chance to show what they have in the post season.

@Republic

Cardinals are always good! Kind of like how the Braves used to be. No matter what you would see them in the playoffs.

@ Noname

I am from Washington, but my enemies are the Angels, so I can deal with your Oakland doing well....just not too well.

@Amp

As you know I am not from Illinois, just live here now, I have to go with the White Sox while I am here. Sorry Cub fans!
