Here's a novel approach to combat performance enhancers: start an anti-drug campaign in a similar vain to "Just Say No," tag it "I Won't Cheat" and voila, kids will stay off the needles, cream and clear. Well, at least that's what Dale Murphy is hoping.

It's hard to pass judgment on the St. Louis Cardinals for their 7-1 loss to the Brewers tonight. Still, even through the worst events time and baseball march onwards. The Cardinals know that as well as anyone, and they took the field tonight wearing patches to honor Josh Hancock and playing with heavy hearts.

Think about that amount of money for a second. A small piece of cardboard from Mickey Mantle's 1951 rookie year with the New York Yankees just fetched that at a Chicago auction house. $160,000 is a record for a single Mantle card, and was a part of a huge sell-off by Evanston, Ill. collector Lionel Carter.

As we told you here on the Fanhouse yesterday, Torii Hunter is having a bad week. It all came to a head, or his head actually, on Thursday when he received a Zack Greinke fastball to his face. Hunter said after the game that Grienke apologized and is a nice guy, but that's not the reason he didn't charge the mound.

Daisuke Matsuzaka is probably the one player facing the most pressure this season: he's playing in Boston (which is pretty self-explanatory), there's an almost unprecedented amount of hype around him, and he's been rumored to have some kind of magical pitch in his repertoire.

In my dissertation on why the Blue Jays are worth watching in 2007, I noted that, if they can stay healthy, Roy Halladay and A.J. Burnett would represent one of the most potent -- if not the most potent -- one-two punches in the AL East. I still maintain that Burnett's gonna overcome the travesty that was his 2006 season, but his 2007 debut earlier
