Super Tuesday

After a largely snoozer of a Monday slate, Tuesday is sure not to disappoint baseball fans.

Barry Bonds (who just turned 43 a week ago) is going for career homeruns 755 (and maybe even 756) in Los Angeles, against Cy Young front runner Brad Penny.

Alex Rodriguez, (who just turned 32 on Friday) is going for career homerun 500, at home against Jose Contreras and the White Sox.

And Tom Glavine (who just turned 41 back on March 25) is going for career win 300, in Milwaukee, against Jeff Suppan.

There's also that pesky trade deadline thing at 4 o'clock this afternoon, but I can't imagine we'll see any deals bigger than Mark Teixeira to the Braves

My prediction: none of the above three things happen, and despite a few relievers switching teams, the trade deadline comes and goes quietly. Stay tuned.

So basically the point of this post was to get our hopes for something exiting only to have them dashed. Personally I hope ARod hits 500 tonight so he can get it over with and start hitting again.
