Why Some Big Named MLB Players Aren't Playing

Major League Baseball Players Union is officially looking into why some big name players haven't been signed, reports ESPN.

Now gee, let's look at the players who are out there and the real reasons for why they're not being signed.

Barry Bonds Goes on trial for perjury June 27. Duh.

Roger Clemens Do we even need to go here?

Kenny Lofton Rickey Henderson, Part Deux. I can almost hear Kenny crying like Richard Gere, "I got nothing! I got nowhere else to go!" Go away to a golf course somewhere, Kenny.

Jose Mesa Just what every team needs: A six-fingered reliever who blows 3-run leads in the 9th with a flat fastball. Pass.

Mike Piazza His knees are as worthless as his linguini arm, yet he insists on playing catcher. And his power is kaput. Italian Stallion no more.

Sammy Sosa Sammy can still hit 'em out, all right. To the tune of a .240 average, if you're lucky. No thanks.

Sean Green Sorry, but the league has enough powerless, left-handed hitters. Ones who are a lot cheaper, too.

Shea Hillenbrand His talent is only overshadowed by how much talent he thinks he has over everyone else. Can you say, "clubhouse cancer."

Finally, my favorite:

David Wells Last seen drunk off his ass and ordering a 24-pack of maple bars from the place he was nicknamed after: Krispy Kreme.

There. I just saved thousands, if not millions in lawyer fees for MLBPA.

Now they can go back to doing something productive. Like, oh say, finding ways for its players to avoid cooperating with investigations.
