    Inspired by the "Tigers Haiku" thread over in that forum, I thought this might be a good way to kill time till spring training, and exercise some creativity to boot. Here's one off the top of my head:

    Fenway Park is old
    Can we put some more seats here?

    Did not win it all
    George will outbid all others
    Leave those guys with stiffs
    Mythical SF Chronicle scouting report: "That Jeff runs like a deer. Unfortunately, he also hits AND throws like one." I am Venus DeMilo - NO ARM! I can play like a big leaguer, I can field like Luzinski, run like Lombardi. The secret to managing is keeping the ones who hate you away from the undecided ones. I am a triumph of quantity over quality. I'm almost useful, every village needs an idiot.

        black caps with "s" "f"
        an exciting all-star game
        things end with a splash

          The Stars are shining
          Soriano is whining
          tired of rhyming

            The fans all will moan
            All the dreary Winter long
            So let's play some ball

              Climbing up the steps
              The sky is purple twilight
              Field slides into view

                Summer evening's joy
                The sounds of batting practice
                The crack of the bat

                  the smell of the grass
                  well-worn leather gloves and mitts
                  new memories made

                    Sunlight stripes the grass
                    Temple of the summer game
                    Laughter on the field

                      grunts and groans and pain
                      bones and muscle not waking
                      perfect shade of green

                        White ball falling fast
                        He runs, he dives, he catches
                        Runner stops and swears

                          Dice-K looks in, throws
                          Hideki swinging, smiles
                          Long-time curse hurts

                            Hideki strikes out
                            Reveres pitcher on the mound
                            So far from their home

                              Old man tries softball
                              Things don't work well, never did
                              Maybe he should quit.
