Bonds would be the DH and Giambi the 1B. Even Pete is surprised at Giambi's defense. Our lineup could be: Damon, Abreu, A-Rod, Bonds, Giambi, Posada, Jeter, Cano, Melky/Gardner. Bonds will get us offense, obp, slugging, and protection. I wouldn't be too keane on it either but if we need power, Bonds might be the temporary solution.

Which reminds me. Happy Birthday Mr. Steinbrenner. 1966 was very sad, the series against the Dodgers and then the Cards was begining of the end, then to CBS ownership where terrible years.

Remember 1966? For me, that year was like a death in the family. All the guys were getting old at once, and there was no replacements coming from the farm, unless you consider Horace Clark a "blue-chipper." RhapsodyinBlue-
