Too bad there's no DH in NL parks cause that's where real baseball is played

One slight change, after reviewing the Red Sox stats, Dustin Pedroia should have been on the roster over Cano.

I don't know about that Aaron. I'd rather not see Dempster or Lilly ever swing a bat again for the Cubs.

Yup, real baseball, played by guys like Mark mcGwire, Sammy Sosa and barry Bonds...

Sorrry, I'm just really grumpy tonight and kind of itching for a fight...

As much as I'd like Joe Nathan on my team, he is most certainly NOT a member of the IBC Twins.

Hey, Bonds was one of the greatest of all time before the juice, so don't compare him to Sosa and McGwire (yeah I feel like a fight too).

My bad, make that 5 Tigers on the AL squad.
