Can Sheffield go into the HoF as a Marlin?

Fluxuation — Tue, 31 Mar 2009 19:27:44 -0000

So since the Tigers just released Sheffield I was looking into his stats and seeing what team would he go in as if he gets voted into the HoF. I didn't go super indepth with this, but it gives you a nice little look.
294 games played with the brewers
146 games played with the padres*
446 games played with the marlins*
436 games played with the dodgers*
290 games played with the braves
347 games played with the yankees
247 games played with the tigers

287 hits with the brewers
184 hits with the padres*
432 hits with the marlins*
488 hits with the dodgers*
341 hits with the braves
381 hits with the yankees
225 hits with the tigers

21 homeruns with the brewers
43 homeruns with the padres*
116 homeruns with the marlins*
113 homeruns with the dodgers*
64 homeruns with the braves
76 homeruns with the yankees
44 homeruns with the tigers

133 RBI with the brewers
100 RBI with the padres*
315 RBI with the marlins*
310 RBI with the dodgers*
216 RBI with the braves
269 RBI with the yankees
132 RBI with the tigers

.259 BA with the brewers
.330 BA with the padres*
.288 BA with the marlins*
.312 BA with the dodgers*
.319 BA with the braves
.291 BA with the yankees
.247 BA with the tigers

okay. he has 3 all star games as a dodger. 1 with the marlins. 1 with the braves. 2 with the yankees, and 2 with the padres

*stats are not 100% correct due to wikipedia not seperating his stats for those teams on the years he was traded.. padres traded him to the marlins midseason in june and the marlins traded him to the dodgers pretty early in may.

so basically you can have an argument for Sheffield to go in as either a marlin or dodger. I think if either of those two teams sign him now and he hits his 500th homerun with that team that would be enough to push him into the HoF in that uniform (if he gets voted in).

Corey Lidle was the pilot of the plane that hit a building in New York

Yankees pitcher dies as plane hits NYC building

A small plane owned by New York Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle crashed into a 50-story condominium tower Wednesday on Manhattan's Upper East Side, raining flaming debris onto the sidewalks below and rattling New Yorkers' nerves five years after the Sept. 11 attack. Local affiliate WNBC reported four people had been killed.

Law enforcement officials said a member of the New York Yankees' organization was aboard the plane. The Associated Press and NBC News identified that person as Lidle.

The FBI and the Homeland Security Department said there was no evidence it was a terrorist attack. "The initial indication is that there is a terrible accident," Homeland Security spokesman Russ Knocke said. Nevertheless, fighter jets were sent aloft over U.S. cities as a precaution, the Pentagon said.

The twin-engine plane came through a hazy, cloudy sky and hit the 20th floor of The Belaire -- a red-brick tower overlooking the East River, about five miles from the World Trade Center -- with a loud bang, touching off a raging fire that cast a pillar of black smoke over the city and sent flames shooting from four windows on two adjoining floors.

I dont know if this is "diary-appropriate" but I was wondering if anyone here knows the phone number to call to get one of the big screens at dolphins stadium to say happy birthday? im going to a game during the next homestand for a friend's birthday and i wanted to put that up. also, does anyone know if they charge for that? and if they do, does anyone know the price?

So when i saw that Robert Andino is from Miami, I thought about looking him up in myspace. He isnt a big star yet so I figured he would have one. I was right.

http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=39190318

you can tell its actually him based on the comments he has.

while looking through his comments i found the myspace of this guy http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=35263781

by his picture he plays for the Mudcats, but number 39 in the Mudcats is Kurt Koehler. according to his site though, his name is Mike. their is a pitcher in the mudcats with the name Michael Mcnutt, but they dont have enough info on him that i could for sure say thats him in the myspace.

anyone else know any other minor or even major leaguers that have real myspaces?

EDIT: i found logan kensing's site. looks like he doesnt like being in florida. (the state not the team)http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=32777035
