Default Those not "In the know"

Contrary to “those in the know at DR1” (Today’s news) Pedro Martinez was NOT named baseballs MVP this year. That honor went to Evon Rodriguez (sp), even though I believe Martinez deserved it, as the Red Sox would not have made in to the Playoffs without his services

Do you know anything about Jorge Sosa from the Colorado Rockies? He`s Outfielder. From Santo Domingo. Have you noticed how bad the press talks about all latinamerican players? They always look for flaws in them. Like this note from the Oregonian news, where he`s crytized because hes a Sosa. They compare him with Sammy, who also had a bad experiencie with the media because of his weight gain. I think they are jelous, because they have potencial.

Default Bad press?

I have never seen anything but great press for Martinez (of course he is local, playing for he Sox), and as far as Sammy, we must read different papers, they love him and El Duque, Fernandez

And they just picked a Latin player as MVP, somebody must like them, and I don't like classifying players as Latin, they are all MLB players

Bartolo Colon (Cleveland Indians)is our team's best pitcher and he is Dominican. Personally, I am not Dominican but I am very proud of his accomplishments in such a short time. The young Colon is a powerhouse and is a very nice person. I was lucky enough to meet him on business and he was extremely nice and gracious. He represents his country well and I hope you all know who he is. Cleveland loves him!

Default Re: Bad press?/try Re posting question

Judith

First: please don't type in all caps, second; you didn't ask if I knew the man, your statement asked if I knew the baseball player, third, I don't live in the DR.

Try posting a seperate question asking if anyone knows this person in Santo Domingo

Tom
