After Richie Sexson charged the mound, threw his helmet and instigated a brawl for no apparent reason, his punishment is a five-game suspension. He originally got six games but appealed and got one game taken off of the total. If you haven’t seen the video, check Richie Sexson brawl video.
Considering that Sexson throwing […]
The Florida Marlins run a bargain basement operation. With a total team payroll less than what Alex Rodriguez will make this year with the New York Yankees, it’s a bit surprising to hear the news that the Marlins and Hanley Ramirez have agreed a six-year, $70M extension.
Then again, if there is anyone in the […]
Jonathan Papelbon has appeared in less than 150 games as a relief pitcher but he has quickly become one of the best closers in the game of baseball. When Papelbon takes the mound, he oftentimes makes opposing hitters look hopeless.

Well, Barry Zito’s demotion didn’t last too long. About a week ago, the San Francisco Giants announced that Zito would be moving to the bullpen in an effort to increase his effectiveness.

Right down this name: Max Scherzer. Scherzer is a starting pitcher for the Arizona Diamondbacks who hasn’t even made his first start, yet he has the baseball world buzzing. He has an electric fastball, a deadly changeup and two different colored eyes.
The 23-year-old was drafted with the 11th overall pick by the Diamondbacks […]
Arizona Diamondbacks
The Diamondbacks are young but amazingly talented. With great pitching, bashers at the plate and a solid manager, the Diamondbacks are for real. If Randy Johnson can return to 80% of his former self, he’d make Arizona the heavy favorite to represent the National League in the World Series.
Boston Red Sox
The reigning […]
