Best Part Of Playing Amateur Baseball: Getting to play with a great group of guys, learning from the veterans, and playing in front of the home town crowd.

Thoughts on Brandon Wilhelmi's Return to the Tigers: He's a great player and unbelievable competitor. The guy hates losing more than he likes winning. I think he will be the key component we've been missing the last couple years.

Should both the AL and NL use the DH with interleague play all year long? Doesn't really matter to me, but the rule should be the same for both leagues.

Will Davis give Nocky an at-bat this year? Essig...good looking strike out though.

Who will be the first person to miss a sign? Wild card prediction, Davis puts on a hit and run with no one on base. I think that should count.

Favorite Baseball Announcer: Dick and Bert. Also the great Harry Caray.

What should happen if a softball shows up in the dugout? Set it next to Marty and see if he bursts into flames.

Parting Thoughts: Let's make it a special year fellas.
