Last year I used to get so mad at joe morgan and the rest of baseball's "experts" who utter complete nonsense. This year, i'm going to try and paste the choice quotes here for everyone's enjoyment. shall we begin?

joe morgan - "Javy Lopez should benefit from playing here, because this [camden yards] is a park that really favors hitters."

(baseball prospectus has this to say about camden yards: "extreme pitchers park")

John Kruk - "Erstad is superior to Mientkiewicz (sp) offensively"

John Kruk - "Gary Sheffield is the most feared hitter in baseball"

John Kruk (i think we have a pattern forming here): Vlad is the most talented baseball in the game and because of that garrett anderson is going to win the mvp

Jim Caple: AL East Winner: Blue Jays, WC: Angels (yes, he is saying that neither the redsox nor the yanks even make the playoffs!)

Kruk: NL mvp: Giles, NL cy young: wagner.

PJ imagined this conversation taking place:

Joe: You know, camden yards is a real hitters park.

PJ: actually joe, camden yards consistently depresses hitting by about 10%

Joe: I don't care!

[this hypo doesn't play well typed out, but hearing pj have a conversation with himself was priceless]
