Interesting Post about Miguel Cabrera's retirement, which kinda ties into current HOF conversation, as stats and milestones are discussed. Got me going down a Baseball-Reference rabbit hole, and really adding to my appreciation to the greats that hit those magical numbers. We will never have...

Stolen from Reddit (who I think stole from The Ringer): You are sentence to 1 year solitary confinement, but you are allowed to take the complete works of one actor or director to entertain you. Who do you choose? Complete works include any movies, TV shows, voice acting or directing.

https://www.immaculategrid.com/ Fun daily game to get the baseball brain going. I know a few guys here are already playing, so let's see those Sicko Scores.

I didn't see anything like this (granted I only searched a little). Maybe a little stupid, but I need some stupid today. Parties aside, teams aside, dunking on the other group aside, shtick aside (OK, maybe shtick), if you personally could create the perfect President for you, what would be the...

We did this when they were good, going to fire this up when they are really bad. Questions going into the season: Dane Dunning - can he throw baseball good? Nick Solak - can he settle on one position? Isiah Kiner-Falefa - can I spell his name correctly without double checking by end of...

Rangers Trade Russell Wilson To The Yankees Feels as good as any story to start this year's thread on. Took 2017 off, and the team sucked, maybe the thread can bring back some luck. At the very least, we can keep track of Gallo HRs and Ks.

Happy New Year!

Over the last six months or so, I have become frustrated that I can't remember facts that I used to, and always seem to be missing that word on the tip of my tongue to finish a sentence. Also having issues concentrating at work and losing focus from time to time. Nothing huge, but becoming...

From Newberg today: So basically your rotation (depending on Yu's Cy Young results the next few years) is locked up until 2017: Darvish 2017 Holland 2018 Harrison 2018 Perez 2020 Up the middle with Andrus, Kinsler, Martin (and Profar) is solid. I think they end up getting McCann, like...

Too strange of a season. Too many free agents. Too many trade possibilities. Going to be a busy offseason for JD and Nolan. I'm not even going to attempt to predict the lineup going into next season. Evan Grant tried to do it. Jamey kind of tried to do it. It's impossible to do right now...

Clemens to start for Sugarland Skeeters What's the end game here? Can't be a return to the MLB, Houston would take him back already, right?

So who gets in and puts their entire season on the line with a single game? Price vs JV? JV vs Weaver? Balt vs Oak in the WTF game of the century?

It still hurts, still hurts bad. But pitchers and catchers will be here before we know it. A huge benefit of long playoff runs is that the off-season is that much shorter. My completely useless quick thoughts as the haze begins to lift from my brain: 1. Good bye Christopher John. I'm not as...

Should be a fun series. Plenty of offense. Which team has enough pitching and defense? Rangers in 6. Game 1 Wednesday, Oct. 19 St. Louis Game 2 Thursday, Oct. 20 St. Louis Game 3 Saturday, Oct. 22 Texas Game 4 Sunday, Oct. 23 Texas Game 5 Monday, Oct. 24 Texas Game 6 Wednesday...

Interesting little exercise over at ESPN yesterday. A one round draft and chat over the idea if you could start a franchise with any baseball player, pro or minor, who would it be. Everyone took it seriously except Doug Glanville I think. Even as a Ranger homer, I found the Feliz pick at 23 to...

This has to go down as one of the worst offseasons ever for one of the "big market" teams. 0 for 3 on the big names linked to you, Crawford, Beltre and Soriano. No plan B to speak of. Jeff Mathis and Alberto Callaspo probably won't put many new butts in the seats. This team has third place in...

Offseason is up and running full blast for the 2010 AL Champs. Just a few quick shots from the last few days: - Chuck, Nolan and JD have been in Arkansas wooing Cliff Lee. I think they will have a competitive bid, but will stay smart, which means they lose out when the Yankees throw stupid...

Just listened to an interview with Ryan and the interviewer brought up some odd facts about his career, like hitting one of his two homers off of Don Sutton, his three inning save in the WS, etc. The last note had to do with his last game pitched: Sept. 22, 1993. The game is nothing special...

Baseball America really likes us, they really like us!!
