Blueprint for World Domination!

I am not talking today about a plan for peace in the Middle East, or missile shields in Eurasia, or a way to fix the trade deficit. No, the plan I will be revealing over the next few days is much more expansive…much more improbable…but just as important! The plan I propose today is a roadmap for victory in the MLB. Today I take up the cause of my recently hapless New York Mets …the...

Are the Mets good enough to Schmooze Torrealba

I know baseball is a business and money talks but are the Mets really good enough to schmooze things over with Yorvit Torrealba. Just early this month when discussing his pending grievance the catcher made it sound personal, that he felt he had a deal in place and that he was up set over Minaya speaking to his family raising their expectations only to pull the rug out from under them. Torrealba filed...

A Johnson/Ricco coup coming...

I'm not really sure why the Wilpon's decided to keep Omar Minaya, is it really his contract extension which equates to little more then what Alex Cora would make in a season or do they want a figure head who could easily become a sacrificial lamb if things go bad. It makes sense from Omar prospective to return, he has nothing to lose since his reputation is at an all time low, returning regardless...

Trades Of The Decade: Colon To The Expos

From Larry Walker to John Wetteland to Pedro Martinez, Montreal Expos talent seemed to head south as quickly as the club could develop it. By 2002, it seemed possible that the Expos were playing their final season in Montreal and the threat of contraction put the organization's future in jeopardy. So they surprised some people when they acquired an All-Star caliber player mid-way through the 2002 season....

2009 Analysis: Brian Schneider

There was a time that Brian Schneider was an agile receiver with a great glove, strong arm, and the added bonus of some pop in his bat. In fact I can remember when Omar Minaya was GM of the Expos, and he supposedly spent every winter turning down offers for his young and promising backstop. Those [...]
