Around SBN: Jerry Sandusky's Wife Tries To Run A Reporter Over

Poll: Which Minor Leaguer Will Make The Biggest Improvement?

I've said elsewhere that this team could be improved by means of a strategically placed bus accident.

Star-divide

My question to the audience out there: which rookie/position will rate the biggest improvement? I provide the position, starting player and then his notional replacement from AAA Las Vegas and/or AA Jacksonville.

Poll
Which player/position will be the biggest improvement if the starter goes down?

Loney
Kind of cheating to vote for him, since he's already up... but Nomar did look like the weak link even before he got DL'ed.  "Weak link," meaning, "guy most likely to snap like a twig."

Close second for me is Cruz/Guzman.

Re: Loney
Oh, I should clarify:  I did vote Nomar/Loney in the poll.

Billingsley for Lowe
Lowe's a bum. The deposition only confirms what I already thought. If we can get someone to take his contract, we should do it ASAP.
