  2. Jim Mohagan from steeltown, Canada writes: And both on the same team! Ask Scott Carson.

    Injuries killed them last year - I hope it doesn't get worse. Sprains can be more painful than breaks, but Mac should heal quickly enough.
  3. Andrew Berthoff from Toronto, Canada writes: It's too bad that the team and the fans have to suffer with that patchwork plastic field. It's not only an embarrassment to Toronto and Canada, it's downright dangerous.

    Yes, injuries can happen of course on grass and dirt, but having multi-million-dollar athletes forced to dive and slide on that stuff is like making thoroughbred horses race on concrete.

    Please, construct a park made specifically for baseball. If you build it they will come . . . and more players might stay off the DL.
