Baseball season is finally here. There is going to be a lot of different looking teams. The Braves have totally redone their bullpen, but have lost one of their big sticks in the process.

The Braves still have a lot questions still up in the air. Who will start at second? who will start in left? and how will Scott Thorman preform starting everyday at first?

The Biggest thing for the Braves this year is to stay healthy, Chipper and Andrew have to lead this team or else I do not see them winning the Eastern division. Chris/Priorfire.com

Well today instead of writing about baseball, I will put a project from Gileskirk that I have almost finished. Its a poem about day 1 of Iwo Jima.

*D-day means day of invasion.

Iwo Jima Day 1

On February 18^th the Marines sat on deck

Cleaning their guns, while looking at Iwo‘s Spec

Wondering if they would die first D-day*

Or if they would be the first to slay

The Japs in their caves listened all day

As the navy bombarded from the Bay

They had written home their letters

Filling it with money for the family’s debtors

The Japs knew their mission

They needed no permission

To kill ten marines before they were slain

That was what Kuribayashi had said to obtain

The Marines watched the Island

And At Suribachi’s highland

The champions finished up their poker

The losers were thought as Mediocre

On February 19^th all the Marines

Got unto Their Amphibious machines

They waded ashore but to their surprise

Their was not a single shot through their eyes

They unloaded the supplies

Without hearing any cries

Then when the beach was totally covered

Jap Machine guns started to sputter

Marines started dying

While bullets were flying

They shot with their mortars

Showing no quarters

The Marines inched along

All through the dead throng

Of Brave Marines who died

With all of their pride

The Screams of the wounded rang through the air

Making every soldier Aware

Of what would happen should he be next

To have the bullet rip through his neck

The ocean was full of marine spilt blood

While soldiers advanced through the mud

All of the Japs fought for honor

Afraid of shame and dishonor

The Marines fought all day

But to their dismay

2500 were killed or were wounded

But still 40,000 the beachhead defended

The Marines fought on

Till all Japs were gone

And won ww2’s most bloody endeavor

But the battle would leave a scar for ever

The Giants got Barry Zito for a 7 year 126 million dollar contract, that is the biggest contract in pitcher history. I do not know how low budget teams are going to be able to survive, like the Marlins, and Braves and more. The hall of fame for 2007 will I hope be Tony Gwynn, but Cal Ripken will have a good chance. The 9 players are Bert Blyleven, Andre Dawson, Gossage, Gwynn, McGwire, Rice, Ripken, Bret Saberhagen and Lee Smith. Chris/Priorfire.com

today Vernon Wells signed a 7 year, 126 million dollar contract with the Blue Jays. this is the biggest contact in Blue Jays history, and the 6th largest deal in major league history.

The Braves turned down Marcus Giles, and Chris Reitsma, for further play with the braves. Good riddance.

San Diego Padres signed Greg Maddux to a 1 year deal

Boston sighned Julio Lugo to a four year contract.

There is still a chance that the braves might get barry Zito added to their pitching staff. He is currrently talking with the rangers, but nothing has happened yet. Chris/priorfire.com

Maybe the braves will try to get Mark Prior.

The Yankees just paid 25 million to have rights to talk with Kei Igawa. I am not prejudice but I wish that these ball clubs would stop going after these japanese players. I mean look at for a second all these players coming over and how many of them are even going to be any good. there is not any Japanese pro players that are really good right now.

Well a lot happened in the baseball world today mainly the announcement of the National league MVP, Ryan Howard. the big lefty that grew up in St. Louis, MO, said "It definitely means something special," Howard said. "[Pujols is] a great player, and to be able to get in that company, that's a feat in itself. It's an honor because of what he's done for his team and the game of baseball itself.".

Moises alou was added to the mets team and glavine was declined for more years in Shea.
