If Bud Selig had the testicular fortitude to draw a line in the sand, he would have done so by now. Pete Rose is banished from the game for betting on his team to win games. And yet we slap blatant, omnipresent cheaters with 50 game suspensions? Manny Ramirez returns to Mannywood and is marketed just as feverishly as before his suspension? There is no consistency in Major League Baseball.

Maybe Cal Ripken, Ken Griffey Jr., Albert Pujols, Greg Maddux, Rickey Henderson-maybe they all were cheaters.

lid up front with CY Young winner Jake Peavy and Chris Young but after that I am not so sure. Greg Maddux is not getting any younger or any better, Randy Wolf never became the pitcher people thought he would turn into and Mark Prior has question after question as their 5 starter. Can he stay healthy and if so can he even come close to regaining the form he had back in 2003. I don’t think this bullpen is very strong either. Trevor Hoffman gets older and older and he continues to blow the biggest saves. Everything will have to go this teams way if they are going to stay in this tightly contested division race.

There have been stories about pitchers who have or had their own personal catchers. Greg Maddux of the Atlanta Braves preferred Eddie Perez over Javy Lopez. Randy Johnson went with John Flaherty instead of Jorge Posada in 2005 with the Yankees. And even the 7 time Lie Young award winner, Roger The Dodger of Truth Clemens, went with John Marzano over Rich Geman in 1988.
