The 100-year celebration of Wrigley won't include Sosa, Zambrano, Maddux or Sandberg.
Let's not forget that Ryan Braun tried to ruin an innocent man's reputation.

With a slew of all-time greats in their first year of eligibility for Major League Baseball's Hall of Fame, the summer of 2013 should be a banner one for Cooperstown.
As a kid, the guy was my favorite player, so I'm certainly biased. But when it comes to keeping score of the all-time greatest Hall of Fame induction speeches, I think Ryne Sandberg's wins in a rout.
For those wishing to trade a 22-year-old Castro, be very careful what you wish for.
Ryan Braun shouldn't keep his MVP. Not if the test result showing that the Milwaukee Brewers' star left fielder and 2011 NL MVP had elevated levels of synthetic testosterone in his system this past season is indeed upheld upon appeal.
