• The Rundown: Baseball Is Back, Talking Gin Blossoms & Blues Traveler, Horton Should Get OD Start, RIP Bill Mazeroski
I watched enough of yesterday’s Cactus League opener to get excited about baseball being back, but I was quickly reminded of how rough these early contests can be to watch.

That said, I found it morbidly hilarious that the … The post The Rundown: Baseball Is Back...2026See more articles Cactus League breaking news

• It’s time to honor George SpriggsThe former Royals player was once a Negro Leaguer. Now that Cedric Tallis, the Royals' first general manager, and architect of their early success has been inducted into the Royals Hall of Fame, I need to find a new windmill to tilt at. My other pet project over the years has been for the club to bestow some type of recognition on George Spriggs. Spriggs’ contract was purchased by Tallis from the ...2025Visit the page Cedric Tallis injury -
• Remembering the career of Bobby ShantzHe was a lefty with the heart of a lion. My father used to regale me with stories about old baseball players and teams. I suppose that’s the reason I’m more interested in the old times than the modern game. Dad was a Brooklyn Dodgers fan, so I heard a lot of stories about “Dem Bums” growing up, but he also had an appreciation for any player with talent. He admired stars like Stan Musial and Willie...2025Check it out Stan Musial -

I recently went on a road trip across part of our great nation and noticed a proliferation of signs that said, “visit our historic downtown”.

• Gary Peters, 1937-2023
Our tribute to the Rookie of the Year and dominant 1960s pitching force comes in the form of an extended Q&A With the passing of Gary Peters, once again we are able to produce a wonderful tribute to him in the form of an extended Q&A. Peters, by WAR, was the 17th-best pitcher in the history of a very pitching-rich franchise, and tied with Ray Durham for 38th-best player overall.

• 2003 Retired case (time capsule journal)Editors Note: This behemoth of a post is actually a bunch of posts in one. "Self-indulgent" is a word that comes to mind. It's probably not worth your time to read it, so by all means, feel free to ignore this post. It was mostly written years back, so much of what I say is outdated here in 2025. A lot of it is me hoping to pull a card that-- whoops-- turns out doesn't even exist. I guess I s...2026Visit the page Kirby Puckett

• All is not lostI haven't written hardly anything about the passing of Willie Mays, except for a single tweet.Like everyone else, I marvel at his career, as best as I can for someone who saw none of it. He was on the wrong side of the Dodgers-Giants rivalry, too, so the best I can do is some version of "wow, look at those stats."But there were plenty of other people willing to pay tribute on social media. ...2024See more articles Willie Mays scores -

For those expecting an article about our Penguins, I decided to shift gears (and sports) and write about something that’s weighed heavily on my heart for quite some time.

• Eckersley shouts out Kirk Gibson on anniversary of historic HR
On the 30-year anniversary of one of baseball’s greatest home runs, Dennis Eckersley, the man who served it up, marked the occasion.
