Derek Jeter To Be Mets SS In 2011

Both New York teams have a decision to make about their shortstops. The Mets, if they want to keep theirs; and the Yankees, if they want to resign theirs. Here’s a noble idea, how about they switch teams. No wait, hear me out. Derek Jeter is in the final season of his 10-year/$189 million dollar [...]

Bobby Jenks Needs To Either Shape Up Or Ship Out

I’m a diehard White Sox fan, I’ve been all my life, and after watching that travesty of a game pitched by Bobby Jenks I feel like I’m speaking on behalf of all White Sox fans when I say that Bobby Jenks needs to go. This is officially the last straw for me in regards to [...]

Jed Lowrie Turns Dreadful Drop Into Walk-Off Home Run

Just minutes after dropping a routine pop up in foul ground near his unnatural first base position, Jed Lowrie homered to right in the 11th inning to give the Red Sox a desperately needed 5-4 walk-off win over the Blue Jays on Saturday night. Lowrie’s gaffe would have been the lasting impression of a devastating [...]

Was He Safe? Was It Foul? Umpires Get 1-5 Close Calls Wrong, Calls For More Instant Replay

Looks like umpires are getting more than just a few close calls wrong and this is causing some to believe that instant replay needs to be expanded into other parts of the game. After the blown call by Jim Joyce that cost Armando Galarraga his perfect game earlier this season, there has been rumbling and [...]

Uh-oh. Atlanta Braves’ diagnosis on Chipper Jones is not promising

Carroll Rogers is reporting from the Atlanta Journal Constitution that Chipper Jones’ agent reported that he has a torn anterior crucical ligament in his left knee. This is not the news that the Atlanta Braves were hoping for.  This would mean that he would have to undergo season ending surgery on his left knee. For [...]

Is Cliff Lee Going to be a Yankee?

Everyone seems to believe that Cliff Lee is already a Yankee once this season ends. Hold the phone there. The New York Yankees are going to be a major player for the left handed cy young pitcher, but I would say it’s not a guarantee he signs there. Sure- there are reports of CC Sabathia’s [...]

Will Manny’s Return Make a Difference?

Manny Ramirez has spent a good chunk of this season on the DL with a variety of leg injuries (or “injuries” if that’s what you believe).  He’s been sidelined for several weeks with what’s being terms as a strained calf muscle that seemingly won’t heal. He had an MRI, or might have had an MRI [...]

The Cubs Eyeing Zack Greinke This Offseason?

Zack Greinke might be asking his way out of Kansas City this offseason. There are reports starting to surface that last years Cy Young winner is starting to grow weary of the consistent losing, and seemingly always rebuilding. If the Royals make him available this off season the way we’ve seen several big named pitchers [...]

Mark Teixeira: The Yankees Key Down the Stretch

Mark Teixeira is known for his slow starts and hot finishes. It took him a little bit longer to heat up, but since the all star break- Tex is OPSing at over 1.000. That’s a sign of good things to come for the Yankees down the stretch run. We all know Jeter is going to [...]

Starlin Castro (Not Jason Heyward) Is Earning Your NL Rookie Of The Year Vote

Step aside, Jason Heyward, for Starlin Castro is in the midst of making a compelling case for National League Rookie of the Year honors. Castro’s main competition isn’t the 6-5, 240-pound mammoth right fielder, rather Heyward’s hype machine — a menacing force in its own right is the primary object keeping Castro from reeling in [...]
