Is this the new Astros logo?

The always fantastic SportsLogos.net posted this picture today of what appears to be the new Houston Astros logo.

The Shohei Otani situation could get very interesting

We touched on Japanese prospect Shohei Otani's desire to come to America earlier this week.

Free agent preview: Philadelphia Phillies

2012 was a disappointing year for an aging Phillies team. The house of cards collapsed as numerous lpayers suffered injuries, and the Phillies just couldn't get a streak going all season.

Free agent preview: New York Mets

The Mets completely collapsed in the second half, but let's be honest….isn't a 74 win season a success for this team considering what we knew about them going into 2012? At any rate, there probably won't be a lot of movement with this Mets team, unlike in other years, because of the team's financial situation. […]
