Derek Jeter Out Until At Least July

Have you watched Manny Machado play yet? He's a five-tool player. He's only 20. He's fundamentally sound. He makes those things ESPN calls "Web Gems" a couple times a week. He's the third baseman for the Baltimore Orioles. He's baseball's next big thing.
Pick Your Pitcher For the Next Five Years
There are so many good, young talented pitchers in Major League Baseball these days. Justin Verlander just signed a big deal to stay in Detroit and is considered by many to be the best in baseball right now. But over the next five years, is it still Verlander...
Gearing up for Harvey-Strasburg
Shea Stadium used to buzz like crazy, as did the city of New York, when a youngster named Doc Gooden took the hill throwing fire and wearing #16. Pedro Martinez used to light up the Bronx the same way in those epic Yankees-Red Sox games when the masses wondered who his Daddy was...
After the Boston Tragedy, Do You Feel Less Safe Going to a Sporting Event? [POLL]
At one of the safest sporting events in our country, The Boston Marathon, an unknown person or persons had a plan to murder thousands with planted bombs at the finish line and elsewhere in downtown Boston on historic Patriots' Day on April 15, 2013...
