Professional baseball simply does not get any better than the end of the Yankees-Red Sox game on Sunday night. Jonathan Papelbon vs. Alex Rodriguez. The filthiest, flame throwing phenom in the game of baseball, the newly appointed most fearsome closer in the sport,...

I usually don’t single out certain series but given the passion of the rivalry, and the fact that I got out of class at noon today, I thought, why not? Well I’ll skip the small chat and get right down to business. This weekend the two powers of the AL East...

The less talked about Japanese import, Hideki Okajima has been equally dominant against Major League hitters. The lefty reliever is a veteran of 12 seasons in Japan’s NPB. In 2006, he posted an ERA of 2.14 over 54.2 innings of work. Over that span he waked 14...

Pitching around the major leagues has been in a morose state of affairs of late.

I finally got my laptop back but there’s no game to enjoy watching on it.

Oh … is there anything more glorious? Having been a frequent visitor of Opening Day at Fenway Park years past (including my most recent one in 2005, when the ring ceremony was held for the 2004 World Series title) there’s nothing sweeter than seeing the...

For a while Sunday night in Texas, it appeared the Curt Schilling bounce back start would be wasted. Joel Pineiro enters the game in the eighth inning to the tune of the three weakest hitters in the Texas lineup- catcher Gerald Laird, second baseman Ian Kinsler and...

Ah, our favorite team ’round these parts … what’s the team looking like this year? It’s strong. It’s not without its questions, but boy, this looks like a team to be reckoned with… Statistics code: AVG/OBP/SLG for hitters. W-L, ERA,...

Craig Hansen has been optioned to Triple-A (gee, what a surprise…). Alex Ochoa has accepted his assignment to Triple-A, and could have a chance of coming up as a backup outfielder due to injury. Bryan Corey has been sent to minor league camp, which firms up the...
