April 1, 2011

Butler University plays this weekend, in the NCAA Final Four.  Go Bulldogs!!!

Spike Owen (SS) - March 31, 2011 - Response time: 98 days


Teams: Mariners, Red Sox, Expos, Yankees, Angels

Mr. Owen was an unspectacular though solid defensive shortstop in the 80's and 90's.  I thank him very much for signing and congratulate him on having an awesome name.  I would also like to give a shout out to Caitlin, Liz and Mr. and Mrs. M, also Wes, and finally Brianna, Tori and Mr. and Mrs. C.  If you're a friend of mine who is a Red Sox fan and you're not mentioned, then you're probably not obnoxious enough to have made the list. :-)


Pete Incaviglia (OF) - March 31, 2011 - Response time: 22 days



Teams: Rangers, Tigers, Astros, Phillies, Chiba Lotte Marines (Japan), Phillies, Orioles, Yankees, Tigers, Astros.

Mr. Incaviglia, aside from having a name worthy of a Roman Emperor, is a font of baseball trivia.  He has a rule which restricts trading drafted players named after him, the Pete Incaviglia Rule, and is the all-time NCAA Division I all-time leader in home runs in a career and home runs in a season.  He is also a member of the College Baseball Hall-of-Fame.  I thank him for signing.
