Bay City Rollers

Posted in American League, Mets, National League, Pirates, RedSox on December 25, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

It has certainly been a curious case, for  free agent Jason Bay, in his first time on the free agent market.   He had been offered big money by the Red Sox to lock him up with a franchise that is certain to be in the mix for post season play for many years to come. [...]

Hall Of Fame Gala 2009

When I was growing up in late 1970s, if you were not a Reggie fan, you certainly were a  Jim Rice fan. Rice went on to play his entire career with the Boston Red Sox.  In little league, we would imagine we were Jim Rice and try to emulate those home run blasts.   I am [...]

Roccomania Exit Seems Likely

Posted in American League, Around the Web, MLB, National League, Rays, RedSox, world series on November 2, 2008 | 1 Comment »

I can’t think of a better way for Tampa’s Rocco Baldelli to go out in his career with the team that drafted and developed him. The crack of Rocco Badelli’s bat sent the ball over the outfield wall in Citizen Park. This tied the game 3-3 and certainly had many of the Philly faithful ready [...]

Ask The Yankees If Rays Have Heart

Posted in American League, Rays, RedSox, Yankees, world series on October 18, 2008 | Leave a Comment »

The easy thing to say is that the Red Sox will just roll through the Cigar City and make a return visit to the World Series.  What we witnessed in Spring Training is that this young Tampa Bay Rays squad is a fiery bunch.  Thanks go out to Shelly Duncan for the spikes up play [...]

Buckner’s Fenway Revenge on Rays

Posted in American League, MLB, Mets, National League, Rays, RedSox on October 18, 2008 | 1 Comment »

Believe It!

Evan Longoria looks like a Rookie, but does not play like a Rookie! Greg Oden (from NBA) does not look like a Rookie, but plays like a Rookie. Thats what I heard on Jim Rome. Ron Darling is a decent announcer in the time I have listened. Both on the TBS broadcasts and on MLB.tv [...]

Game 2 Of ALCS

Posted in American League, MLB, Rays, RedSox on October 12, 2008 | Leave a Comment »

What a game last night that started at 8pm in the Trop and lasted into the early morning.  It matched up two flamethrowers of the past few years in Josh Beckett and Scott Kazmir, but it was clearly evident both these guys are nowhere near 100%. The Red Sox struck early off of Kazmir getting [...]

Posted in American League, Astros, National League, Outfield, RedSox, Sabermetrics on March 9, 2008 | 4 Comments »

Manny Ramirez has been one of the true sluggers in baseball over the past decade. Carlos Lee has played most of his career in the American League, but has been on the National League the past few years (except for a cup of coffee in Arlington when he was traded away by Brewers). Lee is [...]
