From Tim Kurkjian : 1. How will the world champion Yankees rework their roster? They have three primary free agents, left fielder Johnny Damon, designated hitter Hideki Matsui and starting pitcher Andy Pettitte. Last winter, the Yankees didn't even make an offer to Bobby Abreu or Jason Giambi, allowing each to leave via free agency even though each had recorded pretty good numbers in 2008. Look for...

The NY Post has the full list of possible free agents this offseason . The Mets have only one free agent they may have concerns about losing, and that's Delgado. Really, all decisions about 2010 flow from Delgado - they can try to stick with the hand they have and keep him, bring in another veteran for at least a stopgap, or just go younger. The first base options aren't superstars, but Adam LaRoche...

The way those seasons ended were the equivalent of baseball hell. An error and bloop single in the ninth inning of game seven in 2001... and of course the (in)famous and unprecedented collapse in 2004. Because of those tragedies, the recently...

Let's take a quick look back at some of the players from 2001-2008 that never got to lift up a World Series trophy with the Yankees. Mike Mussina (2001-2008) The man is sandwiched between World Series victories. Is there anything worse? He's a borderline Hall of Famer (I don't think he gets in) and he left after his first and only 20 win season. His departure, in part, led the Yankees to bring in CC...

Along with being the first HBP in Mark Teixeira 's postseason career, and the first HBP recorded by a Yankee in a World Series game against the Phillies since Joe Dimaggio got hit by Jim Konstanty in 1950, Teixeira's 8th inning HBP Thursday night was the 100th postseason plunk in Yankees franchise history. That's particularly impressive because no other team has been hit by more than 44 pitches in...

Here are some more rumors regarding the club's offseason plans: Tracy Ringolsby of Inside the Rockies says the team's coaching staff will return in 2010.

If more zombie-related media hits retail shelves or movie theatres within the next few months, it might become safe to say that America’s new favorite pastime involves the undead instead of Jason Giambi. But we’re not quite at that point. Still, the above has its charms -- a delightful mix of baseball and zombies. It’s the first television spot for Left 4 Dead 2 , just released by...

I've always thought there was something a little fruity about obsessive baseball fans. It's one thing to be into something. But what I've seen just isn't natural: It's ALL they think about, ALL they talk about. ALL they care about. All the time. And now that I've found out that "America's sport" has been redefined from baseball to collecting "game-used underwear" belonging to fans'...
