Not having actually seen Hunt or Foli play, I think the 'Spos current double play team has to at least warrant an honorable mention. If MLB allows the team to play on, Vidro, Cabrera, and Vlad form a very solid offensive nucleus to go along with Vazquez, Armas, and Pavano. (assuming they can keep these players.)

According to our TV announcer, Dennis Martinez threw 9 innings of a perfect game only to lose in the 10th against the Padres. I don't remember this happening in 89... anyone remember this?
And (dont know if this has been mentioned yet) Pedro threw a rain-shortened no-hitter, I think for the Spos, that was wiped from the record books during the purge a few years ago.

From some Baseball reference web page I found by googling that listed all the no-hitters since 1970:
1991 Jul 28 Dennis Martinez Mtl vs LA NL 2-0 Perfect game
I just went back to said webpage (www.baseball1.com) and printed the list off so I list the other Expo no-nos:
10/2/72 -- Bill Stoneman - vs Mets - 7-0
5/10/81 -- Charlie Lea - vs Giants - 4-0 - 2nd game of DH
7/26/91 -- Mark Gardner - vs LA - 0-1 - 9 ip no-hit, lose in 10th
The list stops in 98. There may be more.

A lot of novelty support for the Expos on this board lately. Other than having some pretty funky hats, a shitty stadium and getting screwed out of their only good year in '95, I don't see much use in them. I have no problem with them being contracted. Now the Twins on the other hand have a history of fan support and winning. That would be a team I would be sad to see go.

Oh, oh, dude. You're peeing on CRZ now.

They didn't out the real criminals. Not to the people that can convict them. That had already been done. And the real criminals aren't the players as much as the people that developed and supplied the drugs.
