	Seriously, Khanh, this group is rec.sport.baseball, and is intended
for the discussions of baseball to those interested.  Apparently, you think 
baseball is a boring game--I disagree, but that's your right.  I wouldn't go
onto rec.sport.table-tennis (is there such an animal?) and post something
like "Table tennis is a ridiculous game, it's not a sport, and the fact that
some moron in the IOC made it an Olympic sport goes to prove that Olympic
drug-testing procedures should be extended to those making these decisions..."
Why?  Because YOU don't care that I think table tennis is silly.  And I don't 
care that you think baseball is boring.  So, I'm not offended at all.

Please do. Paul Molitor is now in Toronto. Babe Ruth finished up his 
career with the Boston Braves. Harmon Killebrew played out his career
with Kansas City. (Or was it Milwaukee? I never can remember.) Teams 
often drop aging players after they've stopped performing. It's still
possible that Ripkin will wind up in Miami and Puckett will play out
his days in Oakland.

As much as I like Kirby Puckett, if someone said I could pull the trigger
on a Puckett for Bonds trade, Kirby would be packing in less than a 
minute. I'm all for having good teams full of nice people, but I'll also
settle for good teams full of raving ego maniacs. I've sat through enough
seasons of loveable losers to know that winning (or just doing well) is 
a lot more fun.

Oh, Babe Ruth may have been fat but he also performed very well. 

>The longer Cecil stays in Detroit, the more they'll love him, I'll wager. 
>Dedication to a city IS appreciated by fans.  

I'm confused. If Cecil's salary demands hadn't been met, who would have
been at fault? Shouldn't Fielder have shown dedication to Detroit by taking
the first offer? If he liked the city of Detroit shouldn't he have taken less
money so that the Tigers could have signed some quality pitching? I'll
show pure dedication to any city that offers me $1 million a year. Hell,
I'd even be dedicated to Cleveland for as little as $50,000 a year.

>The big thing about Cecil (aside from his waist band) is that he makes

So do a lot of players who cost a lot less than $7 million a year. 

>Remember: IT IS, AFTER ALL, A GAME!!!

No, at the professional level it's a very big entertainment industry.

It hasn't been true for a very long time.

These are not just "rumors" as they've been widely reported in the Baltimore
media.  Jacobs is reported to be in negotiations--in the $100 million
price range--with Bill DeWitt, and was even reported to have contacted
Boogie Weinglass (owner of Merry-Go-Round stores and one of Barry

Hey!

What's all the complaining about?

I don't think any of us liberated souls would mind having a job where, when
we are showering at the end of our day, we are FORCED to have members
of the opposite sex come in on us. In fact, if our boss doesn't permit
a male into a female's shower, or vice versa, he gets a heavy fine.

Nothing wrong with that!

Makes me wish I had worked on the sports section of the college newspaper so
I could "interview" the women's basketball and volleyball teams right after a
game.

I know all of the people on here who are defending the right of female sports
writers to go into male locker rooms, would not stoop to being hypocritical and
saying a man should not be able to force his way into an area where
women are nude.

Or, would you?

Oh, horsebleep. Let's run a thought experiment. 
1. Detroit signs Barry Bonds using the money they're pissing away on Cecil.
2. Detroit trades Cecil for a *good* pitcher and/or an outfielder or two
(not that they'd do it, but something like to Atlanta for Pete Smith, Keith
Mitchell, and a banana).
3. Detroit wins about 15 more games than last year. 

How many fans are they gonna lose? None, I bet. With the possible exception
of Fernando Valenzuela, nothing puts fannies in the seats like winning
games.

	Yes, I remember your ramblings. Very enjoyable. Now, when I came to
sunny Ca. (although it's been pouring down for the last few days just like
back home), I brought a couple of cricket books with me. You see back home
I subscribed to the Cricket book club which gave big discounts on books as 
long as you bought one every quarter or something like that. You're talking
around '87 and mine are out of date too. Anyway, a couple of weeks ago I
finally had time to go through one which covers the history of test cricket
up until the mid eighties has some description plus a little bit of stats. 

So get ready for this, I know you're gonna like it. No, you can't have my
book but I'm gonna do the next best thing. Tomorrow, I shall post a fairly big
quiz. I was gonna do this anyway, but now I've got good reason. I'm gonna
put some easy questions in there (if anybody gets them wrong, they should take
a week off and got to their local lib with good cricket books) and some
questions are gonna be difficult (in the sense that you'll probably need
a book with you). No doubt, you're gonna ace it, mate.

Border is apparently just 69 runs behind Gavaskar. It would be interesting
if the Indian selectors, out of desparation, request Gavaskar to come back.
Gavaskar & Border would then be going "head to head" before time & form
eventually run out for the two of them. Would be quite exciting indeed...

Subject: World champions established two records......
Date: 12 Jan 93 19:02:46 GMT

	Pakistan were bundled out for their lowest-ever one-day inter-
national total and lost to the West Indies by nine wickets in a World
Series Cup match at the Gabba.  Couple of records were established in
that game.  The  world champions  succumbed for 71 - three runs fewer
than their previous  worst against  England in last  year's World Cup.
Pakistan drew that match after the weather intervened - but there was
no  such fortune this  time as  Desmond Haynes and  Richie Richardson
steered the West Indies home. The top six Pakistan batsmen, including
captain  Javed Miandad, managed  just  12 between  them as Ian Bishop
reeled off a career-best five for 25 to claim  man-of-the-match award.
It was  the  quickest  full innings  in one-day  history, 23.4  overs
against India's 24.1 against  Sri Lanka in Kanpur  six years ago.  It
was Pakistan's second collapse of the competition, following their 81
against the West Indies in Sydney last month.

Yup. As far as I remember, Shastri stopped playing after the 6th ODI, when
the injury was announced. There was even some speculation that the injury
was faked which was soon dispelled. Hence he did not play in any later
in the tour, incl. the test. Wasn't the last ODI on the 19th?

I donot know why every time India fails in a test match or odi, the Indian 
nettor's always want Ravi Shastri and Kiran More's head on a chopping block.

I have a question about how many nettor's have ever kept wickets?  I can
tell you it's not easy.  The keeper is probably the most active player on
the field, and I am saying this from experience.  I use to keep until

Apart from a very few decent innings rameez has been more of a burden in
a OD team. He lacks the ability to place the ball. He is a good test
batsman. In ODs, as he played yesterday, he plays good shots but straight
to feilders--what good is that. He is one batsman who can be trapped.
Many times the opposing captain had placed 2 fielders near the leg umpire
and bowlers had fed rameez on the leg side resulting in easy catches.

Aamer can be easily replaced with Shoaib, he is definitely the best
fielder plus bowls good leg breaks, but most importantly is able to graft 
runs. I dont know why shoaib is seen as a defensive player. In his 
early years, he was a defensive player, but now is a muture and many
times an attacking player. Probably, shoaib is seen as another Muddassar.
I may be igniting flames here, but Muddassar too started playing shots
in later years and many times was ahead of Mohsin in their partership. 

I am not for dropping saeed anwar. I have not seen him play, but on
this tour he scored a couple of big hunderds in side matches and was only
given one chance where he failed. He deserves another chance.

Zahid Fazal is probably the best one-down prospect for pakistan. he
should be a regular in pak side. 

Lastly, keep either aamer or rameez for insurance.
So, my first 3 positions are

1. Shoaib
2. Saeed Anwar/(rameez or aamer as second choice)
3. Zahid/Mujtaba

I guess changing captains wont help, but akram should be appointed
deputy. He is for sure the future captain.

      Richardson is playing in today's match. Apparently you saw the plan file

Lara, Haynes, Richardson, Hooper, Arthurton, Logie, Williams, Benjamin,

I do not know the WI score, the last I heard before I had to go away was: 120
odd for 5 and right now it is the in between innings break.
