John Smoltz introduced by Red Sox
I’m not, nor have I ever been, an Atlanta Braves fan. Sure, I rooted for them to beat the Yankees when the chance arose and I was always impressed of their year-in/year-out ability to produce quality homegrown players; but other than that.. I could care less. With that being said, it STILL feels weird for [...]
Jim Rice elected to the Hall of Fame
It’s been fifteen incredibly long years of waiting for Jim Rice but the day has finally arrived. The announcement has been made and Jim Rice, one of the most feared hitters in baseball from ’75-’86, has been elected into the baseball Hall of Fame. He made it by the slimmest of margins (about 5 votes [...]

Mark Kotsay to be Youkilis’ backup

Pedroia to be coverboy for MLB 09 The Show
Dustin Pedroia has been listed as the cover-boy for Sony’s videogame ‘MLB 09: The Show’. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go back to my obviously superior XBox 360 now and wish that I wasn’t stuck with the obviously inferior MLB 2K9 for next year. *sighs*
Rocco Baldelli to sign with Red Sox
I’m not too thrilled with this signing but what can you expect from a 4th outfielder/bench player? The Red Sox are reportedly seconds from signing Rocco Baldelli to be a back-up outfielder. Baldelli, the 6th overall pick in 2000, was a VERY highly touted prospect at one time. That time period just happened to be [...]
