The Hardball Times —
Since when does ESPN run descriptions of short TMZ.com video clips as news stories? And if you're an ESPN reporter who breaks his or her butt calling sources and landing interviews, don't you feel a bit silly for not having thought about changing your beat to the valet line outside of fancy restaurants? Much easier gig, I'm guessing. ...

Some “mystery team” has offered Andy Pettitte a 3 year $36 million deal. I cannot see this team being the Red Sox, that just isn’t a Theo move. That most certainly could the the Dodgers, or the Angels.

Mets Tailgate —
***Disclaimer***: Before I go any further, let me say I am not (yet) advocating the signing of Barry Bonds. I am merely taking a look at how viable an option he would be for the 2009 Mets. Last week, espn.com reported that Barry Bonds may still be seeking employment: "I'm not retiring," Bonds said Saturday night. "I'm not retiring."Say what you want about the guy, but the last season he played (2007) was truly awesome. Just look at these numbers for Bonds, who finished ...
Make It Interesting And Give Barry Bonds A Call
Amazin' Avenue —
... mid-May is indefensible. In sorry times like this, one option is to call up minor leaguers to see what they can do. Outside of Niese, Nick Evans, and a few others, there aren't too many legitimate options though. To this end, I am suggesting the Mets look into signing Barry Bonds through the rest of the season.

Bonds did not play in 2008 but was looking for work before this season. According to this article about ...
