...This year, everyone is yapping about how Boston could be a dynasty. Or how the Yanks will fare with a new manager, Joe Girardi, and a new boss, George Steinbrenner's son, Hank, a meddler who may manage to bring back the dysfunctional feel of the old Bronx Zoo. And those poor Mets - will their new ace, Johan Santana, help them rebound from last season's historic collapse? Not to mention all the New York players caught up in the steroid morass, in particular Roger Clemens, Andy Pettitte, and now A-Rod - whom Jose Canseco said he introduced...

(1.96 m) guard from the Bronx graced the cover of SPORTS ILLUSTRATED before even playing a college game. But at St. John's, he proved a bust. Lopez briefly made the pros, but he had little impact. Last season he played for the CBA's Albany Patroons...
