For average humanoids like you and I, it's always nice to be reminded that finely tuned millionaire athletes can be just as clumsy and accident prone as us norms.  Take Angels pitcher C.J. Wilson for instance, who when pitching tonight in Tampa Bay got devoured without mercy by the turf monster.  Thankfully, MLB's tumblr page […]

http://youtube.com/watch?v=AwKevwSAGvU MLB Network has some very good, smart programming…. and Intentional Talk is certainly not it.  The show hosted by Chris Rose and Kevin Millar can best be described as campy.  That fact leads to some weird, and even funny moments – like Giancarlo Stanton of the Miami Marlins trying to sing Beyonce.  Key word: […]

Your browser does not support iframes. MLB pitchers haven't found a way to slow down Miguel Cabrera… but lifeless squares on a baseball diamond?  That's another story.  The reigning Triple Crown winner and AL MVP lost this battle with third base at Progressive Field last night in a Tigers victory over the Indians.  After biting […]

I'm always amazed by what folks adept at technology can do with baseball GIFs and the new way to see cool things about the sport that go unseen by the naked eye.  This one from Reddit user DShep is just as mesmerizing as R.A. Dickey's knuckleball in slow motion…. and maybe even a little trippy. […]

Your browser does not support iframes. The Houston Astros currently sit with the worst record in baseball at 36-74 and have become one of the laughing stocks in major professional sports.  Videos like the one above are the reason why.  In the 11th inning, with the score tied 4-4 in a home game with the […]

We hit all levels of baseball with this week’s roundtable.  The pros (Jim Thome’s rumored waiver wire deal), the amateurs (talk of capping MLB Draft salaries), and the kids (the Little League World Series) are all on deck in the Three Strikes Roundtable as members of our editing staff sit down to chat about all […]

The roundtable is back as our editing staff sits down and discusses the biggest stories in baseball from the past week.  Three questions that cover everything from potential Hall of Famers to current division races to your favorite play to watch on the ballpark.  Here’s this week’s roundtable… Strike 1: The biggest question with Jim […]

As the baseball season approaches October, the postseason field will begin to take shape.  As Giants-Philles and Red Sox-Yankees took the national stage this weekend, it got me thinking about the perceived lack of parity in baseball.  The networks were touting the great ratings that these games did over the weekend, but who could blame […]

This week’s roundtable takes a look at the dilemma of baseball’s sanctimonious “Unwritten Rules,” an injury that may change the course of the AL Pennant race, and one last look at the trade deadline and which team made the best deal to load up for the stretch run. Strike 1: What are your thoughts on the […]

Last night was just one of those weird nights in baseball.  I’m pretty sure there was a full moon or some sort of celestial alignment happening in the distant galaxies to cause what we saw around the majors. Packey already broke down this insane infield triple from last night’s M’s/A’s tilt… but that may have […]

The 2011 MLB Trade Deadline came and went.  Some big name players were dealt like Carlos Beltran, Hunter Pence, and Ubaldo Jimenez.  Some big name players stayed put like B.J. Upton and Heath Bell.  Some teams were surprise buyers like the Cleveland Indians.  Some of the better teams in baseball were active in strengthening their […]
