Another is a guy who used to cover baseball for my hometown paper. He would use statistics and would be wrong half of the time. It was as if he never used a reference book. He just came across as just plain sloppy. You do have to wonder about guys like that.

"Baseball stupid" is as old as the game itself. Rich, you gotta learn to ignore that stuff. “Baseball stupid” is as old as the game itself.

Could he actually be stupid enough to advise Bernie to go into hiding until the Yankees offer a guaranteed deal (which everyone can plainly see is not going to happen)? For the money that smarmy, aluminum-siding salesman gets paid, you'd think he would sit Bernie down and talk some sense to him. Where is Boras on this whole Bernie fiasco?

I'm really hoping Igawa pitches well, because he seems like a very entertaining, likeable guy. what does Matsui mean in the difference in strike zones between NPB and MLB? is one bigger? which?

But I think he has to make the first call now. Who knows, mebbe he could even share a lung with Posada or whatever it is Giambi is sharing with teammates these days.

Better yet….when will be the next time—for real?
