Hey gang. What do you get the baseball fan that has everything? Our dept head at work is a baseball nut, but surely anything "easy" to think of, he would have already. Any ideas? I know there are some baseball fans here.

The Olympic Stadium up in Montreal can be had for a cheap price...it was last listed at $2.75 Canadian.

If you want the inclined tower with the retractable roof that doesn't retract, that'll cost you an additional 2 billion dollars, Canadian or American. Your choice.

(and I'm an Expos' fan, hence the username...go Nationals. No, I mean STAY Nationals).

Jdog, I would suggest that you contact Mike Gutierrez.

Here's something from Mike's auction house that looks interesting.

Of course, he is a Devil Ray fan... or at least as much as anyone can be. And we're thinking about $30 USD. (We do a lot of charity at work this time of year, so we keep the gifts modest.)

$30??? Yup, that sounds like the Devil Ray's annual payroll.

devil rays? hmm how about a Dwan Brazelton jersey. He might sell it to you himself for 15.

or how about the bat that Delmon Young flipped at the umpire?
