Look at the numbers so far, for 2010. Consider he was a platoon guy to begin with and now has been splitting time between being a DH and an outfielder again.


9 homeruns, 5 steals, .676 slugging

Sounds like AJ circa early 2000's. And obviously, he has enough mobility to be a regular fielder again. Sure, he's striking out a lot, but that's really nothing new to the Jones stat line. He has walked 13 times, so it's not horrific (example of horrific: Cedeno, Ronny). ...

I suppose there's this big thing happening in free agency for the NBA after the postseason. Rumor has it, Dwyane Wade, Lebron James, Chris Bosh, Dirk Nowitzki, and several others could be on the market. I know, who hasn't heard of this before? But let's delve into it from my perspective.

Power Rankings for April

Team Top 10.

1. Rays (17-6, 144 RS, 76 RA): Matt Garza and company are clicking on all cylinders at the moment. They are 12-4 vs the AL East this season so far. David Price might finally live up to the hype.

Johnny Flynn, James Harden, and Chase Budinger were solid. No one saw Wesley Matthews coming, he wasn't even drafted. Omri Casspi is officially the greatest Israeli NBA ...

The downside:

They're adding yet another open spot on the roster, so there can be even more players. Look, no matter how much we expand the rosters, there's always going to be a snub. Or snubs. But there's always going to be players we completely disagree with being there, whether the fans voted an undeserving player in or Joe Torre is picking his mop up reliever. It's always going to happen.


The upside:

They're again letting an additional player ...
