9 ERs in 2 innings. Two bad outings so far for Maddux. Hope he rebounds. Glavine had a nice game today.

Hopefully Maddux does rebound soon. I'd like to see him get 300 wins.

yea, me too. Maddux is one of the better athletes of the past couple of decades.

Performed well on the field, made his money, stayed out of trouble off the field.

Can't ask for anything more.

the good thing is, he never was a hard thrower, so he should be around long enough to get those 300 wins.

sheesh, 300 winning games pitchers are harder and harder to come by.

4 players this year have a shot at 500 homers; Sosa just got it yesterday

You won't see many pitchers get to 300 wins in the next couple of years but you will see a ton more players get to 500 home runs. 500 home runs will be nothing with the likes of Fred McGriff in it.

pwaldo...that's so true.

And to think that McGriff could possibly be in the Hall of Fame.

yikes!!

too many teams, too many bad pitchers, and if you play 15+ seasons, you're gonna put up Hall of fame stats.

The more who get in to the elite 500 HR + club makes the guarantee into the Hall less of a guarantee.
