From 2000 to 2009, we as baseball fans have been lucky to see some great teams match up for the fall classic. We were lucky enough to see some wild card and under dog teams take the gold by beating a team better than them. It was a glorious decade for baseball in that sense, [...]

With the recent success of Cubs prospect Starlin Castro there is talk about bringing up Castro and shifting current shortstop Ryan Theriot to second base. Besides it being a bad idea to call Castro up this early it is arguably a worse idea to move Theriot to second base. Theriot would go from a slightly [...]

With the decade of baseball from 2000-2009 about to be complete, I figured it was a great time to come up with a tentative list of who might be on my team of the next one. Granted there’s a chance several players might flame out, and several players might end up being on the team [...]

Vizquel Provides Sox with Veteran Presence

Last week, the golden glove man known as Omar Vizquel signed a one-year, $1.375 million contract last week with the South Side Hitmen. Some may question that move and I’ve already heard a lot about how that much money is too much to waste when the Sox already have Alexei Ramirez and Gordon Beckham to [...]

I’ve just found out through a source that Miguel Cabrera, the franchise first basemen of the Tigers is in deed being shopped. That could be huge news as the winter meetings are just around the corner. I can’t really state for fact on WHY Miggy is being shopped around, but my best guess would be [...]

White Sox Add Depth With Jones

At one point in the not-too-distant past he was a star, Andruw Jones now joins the Chicago White Sox bench for the 2010 season. On this 2009 Thanksgiving day, let’s look at what he may be bringing to the South-side… In all likelihood, Jones will work his way into a larger role with his new [...]

Brett and Tony’s Lefty vs Righty battle

Filed under Around the League, Chicago Cubs Sites, Headline

Tony’s take: Before the 2009 season, there was much ado about nothing in Cubland. After getting swept out of the ’08 playoffs by the Dodgers using a predominantly right-handed hitting lineup, everybody was calling for Jim Hendry’s head if he did not acquire a lefty bat in the offseason. In response to the fans’ outbursts, [...]

Every season, there are always surprises in the MLB. The 2007 Rockies, 2009 Ben Zobrist, the 2008 Cubs getting swept out of the playoffs. All things nobody could have predicted to perfection. However, not all surprises are good and if you took any of these 10 guys on this list, chances are, you were cursing [...]
