Who is the best hitter in baseball? Last year it would have seemed unanimous that it was A-Rod. A-Rod had one of the best seasons in history outside of the steroid era. This year, however, it is a different story.
Quietly, Pujols is putting up some ridiculous numbers himself this year. He doesn’t have the home […]

It appears as if we are really going to have some sort of instant replay in baseball and most likely by the end of the regular season. This is good news for the pennant races and the playoffs. Those pesky balls bouncing off foul polls can now be called correctly.

Ian Kinsler has hit the DL with a sports hernia and there is serious talk about season-ending surgery. Actually, it seems more like a foregone conclusion that he is done for the year. If you are like me, and are counting on Kinsler to lead your fantasy team to a championship, you are certainly crying […]

The biggest addition to a contending roster over the last week may have been through a minor league call-up rather than a trade for a big name. Francisco Liriano made his long awaited come back to the Major Leagues with a bang. He was mostly un-hittable on Sunday, as he threw 6 shutout innings, KO’ing […]
