I wish I had been wrong about Big Papi, but I think this further proves that we need all the names on the list in order to move on. It's unfair to the players who weren't using. Right now we have to assume everyone was.

Is anyone else getting tired of the Sawx/Yankees Rivalry? I mean seriously, its only so big because its in two large media-markets and has two bandwagon teams. I've seen too many tools with Red Sox hats on the last few years. Looking in terms of evenness over a long period of time the best rivalry in baseball is the Dodgers/Giants. The Sawx/Yanks rivalry has really has been one-sided until about six or seven years ago. And neither city; Boston or New York, can claim to be the best baseball city in the US. That's a title which belongs to St. Louis.
