When I saw the tweet from Cardinals Class A Minor League pitcher suggesting that Jon Lester had Vaseline in his glove last night, my immediate thought was, "Way to be a sore loser. Keep your mouth shut, minor league man!" Jon Lester using a little Vaseline inside the glove tonight...

It was a wet and disappointing night in New York on Sunday.

The Yanks, injured, old and battered are 0-2.  The Blue Jays, who went wild in the off-season picking-up names like Josh Johnson, Jose Reyes and R.A. Dickey, are also 0-2.  What record looks worse during this early Major League Baseball season?

These Yankee fans who are “fine,” or “don’t have a problem” with the team offering former Red Sox villain Kevin Youkilis a contract are embarrassing. These die-hard fans aren't die-hard at all, they’re sellouts.

Fired up for a fun interview. Later this afternoon on my radio program- Game On With Bruce Jacobs, heard on 104.5 The Team, ESPN Radio in Albany, New York, legendary pitcher Luis Tiant, who made the cork screw wind up famous is scheduled to  appear at 5...

It had been rumored that Bobby Valentine was the frontrunner for the Red Sox manager position and yesterday those rumors were proven true when Boston introduced him as the organizations 45h manager.

The September swoon of the Boston Red Sox has apparently continued beyond game 162.  In one of the more puzzling front office decisions in recent memory Terry Francona and the Red Sox have parted ways.  The manager has been ousted following the Red Sox's awful, record-setting September collapse.

It took a few outings, but Red Sox pitcher Tim Wakefield was finally able to get his 200th career win in Boston's 18-6 thrashing of Toronto.

The Yankees got a much needed win against their AL East rival Red Sox on Friday night as they defeated the Red Sox 3-2. The key to their victory were the 4 solid innings turned in by their bullpen, who did not allow a run. Yankees also got timely hitting to knock in their go-ahead run.
