    Craig Elsten and Sean Riley wrap up the week with a creative grid...while Sean highlights some key stories (A-Rod out of the HOF, comparison between Dwight Evans and Andre Dawson), Craig got a creative wind in the morning and filled his grid out exclusively with first basemen! Plenty of fun baseball conversation follows, wide-ranging and we hope engaging.
