    Re: Mark Grace goes off on Sammy Sosa

    Did Ivan Rodriguez power numbers really "drop off the page"last year? In 2002, his last year with the Rangers in a hitter friendly park he hit 32 doubles and l9 homeruns. In 2003 with the Marlin he hit 36 doubles and 16 homeruns. In 20004 with Detriot he hit 32 doubles and 19 homeruns and in 2005 when his power numbers "dropped off the page" he hit 33 doubles and 14 homeruns. It wasn't his power numbers that were down so much as his rbi's and average. If he had been with Texas last year in a more hitter friendly park he likley would have had homeruns in the 20's. There could be a lot of reasons he didn't have a good year as far as his average and rbi's. The fact that he was going through an unpleasant divorce likley played a big part. But his reduction in weight didn't have have a lot to do with his power numbers, only 2 homeruns less than when he went to he World Series with the Marlins in 2003.

      There Is No Question That You Can Put 30 Pounds On In 2 Years Of Muscle Legally With Supplements. If You Think You Cant You Have No Idea What You Are Talking About..its All Nutrition.

        Tell that to the Detroit area sportscasters who routinally speak about Pudge and his inability to hit for power because he is smaller. The references were made all year about the coincidence of the steroid hearings, etc. and Pudge' weight loss...

He's Not A Man He's A Mouse, For You To Talk In The Camera Or The Radio And Not In The Players Face Is A Joke. Not One Player Ever Talks In Another Players Face...they Are All Cowards....and Grace Has Been Talking Bad About Sosa His Whole Career...just Another Prejudice And Racist White Player..yes, I Am White.
            Just because he cheated on his wife means that anything he says should be taken with a grain of salt. Give me a break.

            Who are you going to believe, Mark Grace who shared a clubhouse with Sosa or Sammy Sosa. If choosing between the two I will take the man who has nothing to lose.

            And yes he may have "Canseco Syndrome" but that doesn't mean he is lying. With all that has taken place in the last year I am pretty sure Canseco isn't the one who is doing the lying.

            Funny how people bash anyone who tries to speak the alleged truth when he exposes the people who have been doing wrong all along.

              Maybe the Detriot sportscasters need to check the numbers on Rodriguez as the power numbers have been about the same the last 4 years. No dramatic fall off. Not specualtion, just fact. Sportcasters are capable of being wrong occasionally.
