No hoax - the Chicago Cubs will win 120 in 2008
Deadspin found this 4/1/2008 on www.goatriders.org [flag]
You're going to think we've gone crazy, or that this is an April 1st hoax. It is neither, I promise you. But where some people are content to merely predict a division title and playoff berth, we at GROTA - or, at least I - recognize above all others just how amazing this Cubs team is. To be fair, everybody else in the world - including my compatriots at Goat Riders - thinks I'm crazy.  ... [link]

Saw the article below linked on Deadspin and found it pretty damn funny. Not sure what to make of it. Not sure if the writer is being serious, a little serious, or just screwing around. I hope he's fooling around. Anyway, the analysis (particularly the paragraph regarding baseball prospectus' projections) is so foolish it warrants 3 minutes of your time. Enjoy. The Cubs will win 120 games in 2008. ...

Leyland and stomach have conversation

Peter@BaseballReflections posted 4/1/2008 from www.detroittigersweblog.com

Jim Leyland’s gut is telling him that a trade for bullpen help is on the horizon. “I think there is a strong possibility that something could happen in the next few days,” Leyland said. “I think that’s a strong possibility.

Alou says he wouldn't have caught Bartman ball in 2003 NLCS

The Zoner posted 4/1/2008 from sports.espn.go.com

Alou, now with the Mets, said he wouldn't have caught the now-infamous pop fly in the 2003 National League Championship Series that hit the heel of Bartman's hand in the eighth inning of Game 6, prolonging an inning in which the Marlins later rallied for the lead. Florida then went on to win the series.
