This seems to be the ongoing black hole for the Pirates. A first baseman who is competent. Lord, it seems like a lifetime ago that we were applauding Littlefield for acquiring Adam LaRoche to fill the 1st base void and give us the "Lefty McThump" hitter we so desperately needed to build ar...

They have plenty of bats...their hitters just don't do anything with them

If you haven’t seen Tampa’s City Connect uniforms, they’re exceptionally awful. They should be the reason MLB finally says, enough is enough, and terminates the whole silly project. They should have pulled the plug on that when the Padres unveiled those tuti-fruiti clown suits a couple years ago. C...

Don't really follow AL but wondering how the heck the O's won 100 last season and are looking good this year and their payroll is under 100 million?? Just a guess but did they get really lucky with rookie contracts???? Must admit I do enjoy them staying with the Yankees who probably are top 3 in pa...

There remains very little humi...

Just had an earthquake here in South Jersey - don't know if it's because the Pirates are 6-1 or that the Mets won their first game!

I didn't know the team was looking to replace Kaufmann Stadium. Officials of the team aren't giving up, though, as they're going to look into...

Just wondering Bobster? How far do you live from the Francis Scott Key Bridge> It's a 25 minute drive from my house. I've rarely used the bridge since I don't have much need to go to the section of Baltimore at the other end. The beltway (695) circles Baltimore and was originally open ended on the ...
