Hey,
Cardinals look poised to take a crack at another World Series. In fact I have come up with a Joe Maddoneque slogan 2009 = 2006

Hey,

After the great success of my first article about the uniform numbers 1-10, I have come back with the next installment, with the best players to wear the uniform numbers 11-20. I hope you can take a look and even comment on my choices. Thanks in advance!

The class of 2009 doesn't have the next MJ or Bron, but it might have the next A.I. or Kidd. I did some prospect to pro comparisons.

Good reasons behind your power rankings, but you have some fudge ups on your slideshow settings, like you have two number 9s and have the Atlanta Braves down twice.

Apologies for the blast promotion, but this is less about getting my article out as it is about getting this kid's story to the masses.

He's been facing long odds since HS and continues to prove he belongs—having just been drafted by the SF Giants in the 36th round. Now, he's got another improbable climb to the Show, but he sounds like the kind of guy we should be rooting for:
