Baseball Blogs Weigh In: Moyer, Cabrera, O's, Maholm

Two years ago today, the final piece of Shea Stadium was demolished. The Mets called the ballpark home from 1964, the team's third year of existence, through 2008. Shea housed the World Champion Mets in 1969 and 1986, and at one time or another was inhabited by the Yankees (1974-1975), the New York Jets (1967-1983), and Pope John Paul II (Oct. 1979).

Here is the best the blogosphere had to offer over the last week...
