Man I love baseball. Early March and these guys are already heating up. Lot's of good quotes from the players involved.

Great piece, thanks for the heads up.
And, man, it's damn good to have the boys of summer back!
Watching the highlights of this and then reading this article I don't think Strasburg was going after Utley, but I don't believe for a second that Halladay wasn't sending a message. Should be good entertainment come the regular season. I can't wait for the Reds/Cards rivalry to heat up now.
Interesting Dub. I have to disagree (respectfully of course). I definitely think Strasburg was going after him and there's no doubt Halladay was rightfully returning the favor.
What I love is, how everyone involved handled it with humor and class while still letting the other guy know that "It's on". I don't want to see any headhunting when they meet up again but I am looking forward to some chippy'ness.
