    Owners' meetings

    So today is the Owners' meeting up in New York. I imagine steroids will be discussed and I'd be interested to say if any kind of statement is made...but apart from that, what really goes on there?

    FYI, it's also exactly three weeks until the draft.

    (I'm criminally bored today, BTW.)
    There is no such thing as a pitching prospect.

    I think they go in with the hands out, and George Steinbrenner hands out wads of cash in the revenue sharing.

    After that they go down and toss a few back somewhere.

    Maybe they need to give him his secret decoder ring and secret handshake.

    Maybe they are talking about adding the ban of leather pants in future CBAs?

    They should vote to eliminate the DH while Steinbrenner's in the Men's Room.!
