      C'mon man really best parks? With Fenway, wriggly, and the big house in the Bronx?

      Being an Old stadium doesn't make it best. While there is a lot of tradition that goes along with Fenway and Wriggly I wouldn't say they were nice ballparks compared to some of the newer parks. Can't count New Yankee Staduim either. While it might LOOK the same it's very different.

      I was a partial season ticket holder in Old Yankee Staduim and the place was run down.

      Looks like AJ is a much better fit in PA than in NY

      He was an underperforming, over-expectated mofo who never panned out for the Yanks. (srs).

      OTOH, perhaps the team expected too much of him and/or the pressure got to him. Glad he's found his niche in Pittsburgh.

      I'm a White Sox fan. I will never give props to wrigley. Been to Fenway a few times (my sister lives there)...my seats usually suck....good Fenway Franks, tho....I prefer Citi to Yankee....could those outfield walls be any closer...????

      I like Fenway only for its history. Haven't been to Queens in years. Only went to a handful of Mets games before Citi field and have to say Shae was the worst ball park I had ever been to hands down. Would like to get down your way for a Marlins game and a Fins game (huge Dolphin fan).

      Actually I am too. Although he was less than stellar in the Bronx I loved the energy he brought to the dugout. Same reason I love Nick Swisher.

      Baseball is a game of tradition love the older stadium and been going to Yankee stadium since 78 the old one was a bit run down but the ghosts more then made up for it. There is no tradition in the newer parks no soul. As for the new stadium refused to go homes across the street but it's still an awsome stadium.

      Still no place in baseball like right field bleachers in Yankee stadium

      Although I was a fan of his Dad growing up, I hate Nick Swisher for that horrible year he had with the White Sox...
      Marlins Park is a really fun place to watch a game and a HUGE improvement over Dolphins/Sunlife/ProPlayer or whatever they are calling it this week Stadium for baseball...
