Mike Piazza, well then LAD manager Lasorda was godfather to Piazza's brother, but close enough.

Piazza is not even scratching the surface of the extent of baseball nepotism.

The Cardinals had to give Dave Duncan a few extra millions to keep him around because he felt they wronged his son.

I know it happens all the time. Doesn't mean I like it. The Cubs took Michael Brenly but he's been awesome.

What are you talking about? He did pretty well in low-A in 2008, but since then he's blown in both regular-A and high-A ball.

Holy cow Lefty, I'll admit that I hadn't seen the stats on Brenly in awhile. And to my dismay, you're right. Not as good as I thought. My bad guys. EPIC FAIL!

No, don't blame yourself. There was a ton of hype surrounding Brenly in 2008 and before the season started in 2009, it's just that nobody reporting or telling you about Brenly wanted to say he was dominating low-A ball.

ah i can see where that was gonna go.

Ok, miss smartypants, where was that going to go? You tell me, and we'll see how good you are.

I was asking in a joking manner, but apparently you are a bit on the touchy side :rolleyes:
