Consider: Marlins righty Anibal Sanchez, 22, left, threw the first no-hitter since '04 last week--and he's not the top prospect on his team. The rooks have pitched some clubs into contention and look primed to pile up Cy Young awards. Here's the most dazzling of the baby-faced bunch...

Neither idea is really on the table. (Rep. Linda Sanchez, a California Democrat, jokes that Republicans had enough trouble moving 250,000 New Orleanians who wanted to be evacuated. "And we knew where they were," she gibes.) But Bush's attempt to thread the needle-coming up with a bill that's tough enough to appease his conservative base...
