Maybe that is his wife

Are we sure that it’s not? I know he married a younger lady…

Hey, just because he hasn't been signed to a major league contract...

…doesn’t mean he can’t play the field.

I've committed to tweeting about the Cubs for the rest of the season. (Does that sound as ridiculous as I think it does?) Anyway, if you're on Twitter, you can follow me here.

Some dude named Sergei invented this thing called "Google" or something...

and it makes stalking so much easier.

Result: inconclusive.

One day I hope to come up with something worthy of this space.

Temptation abounds in major league baseball..

I’ll never forget the side trip my wife and I made to the Phillies spring training camp in Clearwater back in the mid-90’s. This was the time of Kruk, Daulton, Dykstra, Schilling, et al. Like at most spring training sites the parking lot abounded with a variety of beauties and whored up skanks trying to, ahem, draw the attention of the players heading back to their cars after practice. I’ll never forget utility man Kim Batista (sp?). He walked down the line and hand picked three young ladies and they all got in his SUV. Tyler Greene and Daulton also went trolling and came away with what looked like slips of paper presumably to include names and numbers.

Suffice to say a lot of professional athletes aren’t exactly choir boys who adhere to the commandment on adultery or monogamous relationships. Remember Mark Grace? He trolled for talent on a nightily basis.

So you're saying they're normal people,

only it’s a lot easier for them? Shocking news here.

Since when do we live in Europe?

I realize that social norms have shifted quite a bit in the last 50 years or so, but I’m not sure that open adultery is accepted enough in America to be considered “normal” behavior.

Or at least I hope not.

If you are talking rock stars, pro athletes or movie stars lots of them have groupies

this has been going on for decades so my thought is it prolly normal behavior for them.

As for normal behavior for the rest of the population, that is a whole different issue.

Trolled for talent?

ROFL.

That is fabulous.

Does Soriano's defense at 2B really cost more runs than in LF?  He makes a lot fewer errors in LF since misplays and mental mistakes aren't figured into the stats, but I have to imagine that his mistakes are more physical at 2B.  Any thoughts?  Is there a statistic on this?
