Yesterday, Major League Baseball announced its rosters for the 2008 All-Star Game to be played on July 15 at Yankee Stadium.

Instead of recapping what happened last night (The AL won, they now have home field advantage in the World Series, again. End of recap.), I am going to take this opportunity to rant about the absurdness of the game.Well, maybe I'll do a little recapping. First of all, it actually was not a bad   more...

We'll start off today's news and notes with a tribute to actress Estelle Getty, better known as Sophia Petrillo of the Golden Girls, who passed away at the age of 84. Many of you will surely deny it, but you used to tune in every Saturday night to watch Sophia, Rose, Dorothy, and "that crazy   more...

This one surprised me, I was expecting to see either Atlanta's 3B Chipper Jones* or CF Josh Hamilton** of the Rangers on top of this list, but instead, we find Houston's 1B Lance Berkman** just edging out Hamilton. In fact, Jones doesn't even make this top 20 list as he has begun to come down to   more...

Last week at the All Star game, a drunk Yankees fan made an ass out of himself.  While that wasn't too surprising, it was rather odd that he appeared to be yelling at a player who wasn't in the game.  In fact, he wasn't even at the game. I'm guessing our drunken monkey doesn't   more...

5. In a typical Evil Empire move, the Yankees invite Willie Randolph as a guest to the All-Star Game.4. The Boss makes an appearance. Love him or hate him, George Steinbrenner is a legendary New York sports figure. It was cool to see him back at Yankee Stadium.3. Local rivals accidentally stir the   more...

I love a good underdog story and the offensive performance of the Pirate's OF Nate McLouth, and 2008 NL All Star, is one of those stories. Who would have thought that he'd have a year like the one he's currently enjoying? His line this week was 9/4/9/2/.290/.333 (R/HR/RBI/SB/BA/OBP).Ryan Howard, 1B   more...

Dan Uggla is the talk of the internets today......yea, he had a pretty bad MLB All-Star game. But he should feel lucky, he could've been even more of a goat. Then again, he was given a couple chances at redemption and came up short.

While the AL is trouncing the NL in interleague play yet again, the NL has emerged as the Talent League, with the majority of elite fantasy players residing in the Senior of the two circuits. The Fantasy Baseball Hall of Fame takes a step back at the virtual midpoint of the season to construct All   more...

It's that time of year, with no games to watch and no fantasy stats to rack up, when we are all Jonesing for baseball. To help us get through the next couple of days and fill the void, everyone likes to come out with their own mid-season awards. I guess I'll be like everyone else and do my own   more...
