I can be easily sucked into a gimmick or novelty product once, but that’s about it. Fortunately for the beer industry, that stance doesn’t hold true when it comes to branded packaging, as I was forced to admit in the post regarding Tiger Beer. Now, Miller Lite is looking to capitalize on chumps like me ...

Rather than mindlessly celebrating the best of the best, we thought we’d take a crack at making fun of some of the worst of the best. Indeed, even though all these teams are technically champions, these 9 teams all somehow managed to win it all despite the fact that they, well, kinda sucked.

At first glance, you wouldn’t think that the building and/or existence of a foul-ball pole could be that interesting. After all, um, it’s a pole, you know? But the Padres and Taylormade Golf teamed up for a pretty fantastic little promotion out at PETCO. Er, actually, “little” is a terrible word — the foul pole is a ...

Pine tar, sunflower seeds and Cracker Jacks were not to be found, but there certainly was a stockpile of hits, RBIs, HRs and saves in the room on Monday when I got the opportunity to sit down with HOF members Ozzie Smith, Mike Schmidt and Rollie Fingers.

Alright, “on your phone” is a bit misleading, because the homemade “app” that Baseball Reference offers readers isn’t really an “app.” But it’s still a fantastic way to access baseball’s best statistical database on the go.

I’m in an online Madden Franchise league that involves drafting fake players and playing out full seasons with 31 other owners; it’s a pretty dorky dedication to a virtual world of football. But it has NOTHING on Sportscenter anchor Steve Berthiaume’s dedication to “MLB The Show.” As Berthiaume recently wrote for ESPN, one of his ...

Major League Baseball, for all its many faults (and there are a PILE of them), is surprisingly good at technology. MLB.tv — where one can purchase a $100 year-long pass to watch almost every baseball game they could want to watch — is probably the best example of that. It’s long been available for streaming ...

Posted by A. Isaac under MLB, Scott Boras
Baseball agent Scott Boras has been a thorn in the side of many MLB organizations over the years. His ability to get the most for his clients, even when they’re well past their prime (Pudge Rodriguez), is uncanny. Most general managers would tell you, in secret, that they despise him. So you can bet, when ...
