The National League’s Most Dangerous Team
Posted on Wednesday, February 24, 2010
As we’re approaching the start to the 2010 season (FINALLY!), there’s one team that really hasn’t gotten as much love as they should have. Everyone forgets that this team has arguably the best 1-2 punch in baseball, can definitely hit if a couple guys regain their previous form, and play in a weak division. Who [...]
Gulp- Can Joe Mauer be on the Blocks?
Posted on Tuesday, February 23, 2010
If you’re a Minnesota Twins fan, you know about the contract negotiations taking place between Minnesota’s favorite Son Joe Mauer, and the Twins. Well- you might not know everything as all negotiations are apparently taking place privately, but the fan base has to be extremely worried about this. It sure looks like Mauer is willing [...]
Cubs defeat Theriot
Posted on Saturday, February 20, 2010
The Cubs have won their arbitration case against Ryan Theriot who will make 2.6 million instead of 3.4. This marks the end of a nice run the Cubs were on in NOT going all the way to a hearing, and makes the team 2-2 over the last two hearings. (Last one being Mark Grace in [...]
Damon to the Tigers
Posted on Saturday, February 20, 2010
Detroit has reportedly signed Johnny Damon to a 1 year 8 million dollar deal. I’m not exactly surprised, but I don’t think the Tigers are going to get the production Damon had in 2009- at least from a power numbers standpoint. The one thing I do see coming in handy is guys feeding off of [...]
Are Scott Boras and Money Ruining Baseball?
Posted on Friday, February 19, 2010
Ah Scott Boras. The sports agent fans love to hate. Personally I don’t really understand why. Scott Boras is a sports agent, and his job is to get his clients the most money and the best deals he can so why the outcry? Well, I tend to believe Boras is hated because he makes the [...]
Can The Reds Make a Run at the Central?
Posted on Friday, February 12, 2010
Cincinnati. What an intriguing offseason they’ve had and I really do believe they’re a team worth keeping an eye on. They have some real good arms coming up, and some real good young talent on the rise, and I think they absolutely can go out- play good baseball…and be right there in the mix with [...]
8 or 13? How Much Is Tiny Tim Worth?
Posted on Wednesday, February 10, 2010
With spring training around the corner, Giants fans have to be wondering what’s going to be happening if Tim Lincecum goes all the way to an arbitration hearing against the Giants. The Giants have offered 8 million to Timmy while his camp wants 13 million next year. The question I pose is…how much is Tim [...]
Philadelphia Phillies Top Ten Prospects 2010
Posted on Tuesday, February 9, 2010
1) Dominick Brown-OF
The seemingly lone survivor of the 2 big trades of the last year for Philly. …I would think that he’ll be ready for sure in 2011, and potentially at some point in 2010. He’s got all the talent in the world to be a very good major league player.
2) Phillipe Aumont-SP
I’m extremely high [...]
San Diego Padres Top Ten Prospects for 2010
Posted on Monday, February 8, 2010
1) Donovan Tate-OF
Outstanding athlete. I think he’ll be able to be the type of leadoff hitter San Diego has been looking for for quite some time. Has surprising power as well.
2) James Darnell-3B
With the recent trade of Kevin Kouzmanoff, this could open the door for Darnell to walk in. He’s got some decent power and [...]
San Francisco Giants Top Ten Prospects 2010
Posted on Friday, February 5, 2010
1) Madison Bumgarner-SP
We got to see a little bit of him last year and make no mistake about it. He’s the real deal and he’s going to be part of a flat out disgusting 1-3 with Timmy Lincecum and Matt Cain. I know the lack of velocity is a concern for many- but keep in [...]
