Magglio Ordóñez es chavista. Y es mi amigo.
¿Qué cosa, no?, Alberto Federico Ravell es anti-chavista, y también es mi amigo.
Igual que el anti-chavista gobernador del Zulia, Pablo Pérez, y como lo son también los chavistas Eleazar Díaz Rangel y el general José Antero Núñez.

Victorino, mucho más honrado que ellos, tuvo que explicarles más de una vez que no quería hacer eso y que él es descendiente de portugueses, no de italianos. Y les dio una clasecita de geografía universal elemental. Ahora Shene Victorino es parte del seleccionado de Estados Unidos. Todo eso no lo digo yo, sino que lo publicó USA-Today.

Dentro de un mes y días, cantarán play ball los umpires para que comience la campaña de Grandes Ligas. Y un jonronero con 762 estacazos para la calle, más promedio al bate de 298, llamado Barry Bonds, de 44 años de edad, no tienen dónde jugar, no obstante que tiene inmensos deseos de reaparecer después de su ausencia en 2008.
Otro slugger, con 527 jonrones y 319 de promedio, llamado Manny Ramírez, quien celebrará sus 37 el 30 de mayo, no ha querido firmar (bueno, su agente, Scott Boras) con el único equipo que lo quiere, los Dodgers.

Alberto J. Cardozo B. de Campeche, dice...: Recibí una carta, firmada por Luis G. Alvarez, quien critica a Magglio Ordóñez por haberse identificado públicamente como partidario del presidente de Venezuela Hugo Chávez. ¿Será que Magglio se prepara para, llegado el momento, armar un show, y alegar que por razones políticas lo acusan de haber consumido esteroides?"

Los análisis después del desastre, han llevado a los ejecutivos en las oficinas de Detroit a la conclusión de que para recuperarse de tal fracaso, necesitan relevistas, un receptor y un shortsop. Pero no quieren invertir nada grande.
En todo caso, con honorarios para los peloteros de 2008 por 137 millones 685 mil 196 dólares, de los más altos presupuestos de ambas Ligas, cada victoria les costó esta vez un millón 900 mil dólares. Hace solo cuatro años, en 2004, cada juego ganado les salió por 700 mil dólares.
