thats right, Mike Remlinger is the guy that has had it all this time, and now he's tryin to make money off of it...

amazing how the corked bat was the start of Sexy Sosa's demise with the Cubs, yet it can fetch $10,000 in an auction...I dont get it

u would think a pariah and anything associated with it would have no value

goes to show u how many weirdo sports collectors there are out there

Anyone see the mythbusters episode on the corked bat? Super balls? etc? It actually created a negative effect

I think the only positive effect was the baseballs that came out of the humidifier flew further than all the other balls.
