I’m taking a little time today to write a bit more about the MLB season that’s quickly drawing to a close. It’s been quite a season so far: we have an league-leading batter suspended for PEDs; a potential Cy Young … Continue reading →

2012 MLB Preview: NL West

Posted on April 27, 2012 by Jason

Here’s my final division preview. I think this is an incredibly difficult division to handicap. Each of these teams has considerable strengths, but there isn’t a complete team to be found here, in my opinion. It should make for an … Continue reading →

MLB Preview: NL Central

Posted on April 10, 2012 by Jason

I’ll admit that it’s hard to think objectively here. As you all well know, I’m a Cards homer through and through. And while I thought long and hard about picking Cincinnati to win the division, I just can’t seem to … Continue reading →

MLB Preview: AL Central

Posted on April 8, 2012 by Jason

This is by far the easiest division to handicap. Detroit could win this thing by 10 games or more. They’re that good and the rest of these teams are playing catch up. But check back in a few years: once … Continue reading →

2012 MLB Preview: NL East

Posted on April 4, 2012 by Jason

Here’s the link to my previous AL East preview. Now for the NL’s power division. It’s possible that this division could produce three playoff entrants, thanks to the new double wild-card addition (which I’m warming up to, by the way). … Continue reading →

Posted on March 2, 2012 by Jason

It’s been a while since I’ve posted one of these. Here’s a random smattering of things I’ve been enjoying lately. American Idol with my kids. Everybody knows American Idol is a long-in-the-tooth franchise: the ratings are slipping, the contestants are … Continue reading →

So Long, Albert

Posted on December 9, 2011 by Jason

Yesterday, shockwave. Albert Pujols, erstwhile first baseman and “face of the franchise” for my beloved Cardinals, came to terms on a 10-year, $250+ million contract with the California Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. In St. Louis, where baseball is king, … Continue reading →
