Those who get hooked on the sports continue playing it into their college years. Some, who are really good at it, are fortunate enough to go through college [...]

Now, back to my title about the ‘experts’ and the MLB Networks “30 Teams in 30 Days.” In the American League East, you have some very strong teams-possibly the strongest in baseball. The experts are saying that either the Yankees or Boston will win the Division and the other team will be the ‘wild card.’ [...]

…continue to find ways to disappoint their fans. Yes, the Cubs have had some exciting times; some ‘almost’ some ‘getting close’ some ‘looks promising’ – all with the same results. You might say the ‘conditions’ just haven’t been right although I’m not sure just what those conditions need to be. Let’s see, there have been [...]

On the MLB Network, I was watching “30 Teams in 30 Days” both with interest and amusement. Having switched my ‘team of choice’ from the Chicago Cubs to the Tampa Bay Rays for a number of reasons that I won’t go into now…(well, maybe I will.) I know some of you are going to say [...]

Rays Crawford Focused on Playing

The Tampa Bay Rays left fielder, Carl Crawford, is in the sixth year of a six year contract. We all know what that means…money talks ahead. Most ballplayers (or any athlete for that matter) just want to play. For sure, money is very important to any player, but playing still comes first. So this part [...]

Players are getting into shape-some trying to make their first major league team, some older players trying to stay on a team, and some veterans just going through the motions.

Who WILL Make it to the Series?

So, on paper your team looks great. You even start the season with a 2-1 winning record until about the middle of June, and then BAM-your star left fielder with all those homeruns, crashes into the center fielder and breaks his arm. He won’t be able to put his Rawlings baseball glove on for at [...]

Who Will Make it to World Series?

With all the hope and promise of a new season, just who will make it all the way to the World Series? On paper, there are several good prospects-but ‘on paper’ doesn’t mean you’re going to make it to the Series. It doesn’t even mean you are going to make the playoffs. So, just how [...]
