    It occured to me the other day that only *one* former rookie of the year is still on the US national side. Fair enough, Damani Ralph is Jamaican, but look at the rest:

    96 - Ralston
    97 - DuHaney
    98 - Olsen
    99 - Heaps
    00 - Bocanegra
    01 - Faria
    02 - Martino
    03 - Ralph

    Olsen, with a recovery of form, I think might still be in with a shout, and Martino could still end up realizing his potential. The rest? It's frightening. I hope we keep naming foreigners to be rookie of the year...

    I think Boca's doing all right.
