Evan Longoria and An Amazing Night of Baseball [WMQ]
What an amazing night! Wow, that was fantastic! I was just on the edge of my seat all last night… My evening began with the final Marlins game of the year against the Nats. It was the end of an era, really. The Florida Marlins are technically no more (they’re officially no more on 11 […]

The MLB and NPB Are Both In Season! [Wednesday Morning Quarterback]
Words cannot describe how great it is to FINALLY have the 2010 season underway for both leagues! Since we had an MLB-only post last week, we’ll start with the NPB. What an unfortunate week it’s been for me to root for the Carp and the Eagles. Both teams put together three wins over the last […]

It’s gonna be a short one this week. Spring Training continues down in Florida and Arizona as teams are making cuts to their rosters, sending players down to the minor leagues or releasing them as they see fit. Most team rosters are starting to take shape and both Stephen Strasburg and Aroldis Chapman have pitched […]
