billyh072883: As a season ticket holder to the Cards and Rams I was hoping you could shed some light on what the time table is for Ballpark Village. Originally it was going to be done by the All Star game and now we will have tents and vendors out there. Any new news on this project? Also what kind of remodeling is going on the The Dome?
Thanks again, your doing a great job.
Jeff Gordon: The dome stuff is mostly cosmetic -- lighting, paint scheme, video boards, that sort of thing.
In this economy, don't expect Ballpark Village to go up any time soon. If you built it now, business will not come.
eternalramnation: Jeff, thanks again, last question for this week.
Any idea which RFA's the Rams plan on making a tender offer to before Friday?
Jeff Gordon: Incognito is the interesting call. Victor Adeyanju is a no-brainer, but Setterstrom is coming back from a tough injury. We'll see.
Blues Fan: Hey Gordo:
Hope all is well in the Lou. Assuming KT is not retained by the Blues, what top 6 FW FA would you like to see the Blues go after?
Jeff Gordon: If Jordan Staal had hit the free agent marketplace, that would have been my guy. As it is, I don't know if there is a pending free agent that I'm in love with.
Perhaps the team can add a mid-level veteran that becomes a cap casualty elsewhere.
Cadynce1: What is your opinion on the pitcher batting eighth? If this is so successful why isnt anybody else in the Majors doing It? Thanks Again, JRB
Jeff Gordon: I love TLR, but I don't get this at all.
PujoDawgz: Anthony Reyes had a 1.83 ERA for the Indians in 6 starts last year. Is he going to start this year and what do you think of his potential.
Jeff Gordon: I think I could become a Pineiro-type or better. Here, he just wore out the staff with his injuries and inconsistency.
That appears to be it for this week. Thanks for all the questions. Next week I'll be live from Jupiter. Florida, that is.
