I feel so bipolar when it comes to the Orioles . I look at the team and I feel hopeful. Promising young position players, promising starting pitchers, a GM who has done nothing but improve the team since getting here two years ago. Then two seconds later I realize how far this team is from contending and it depresses the hell out of me. This team won 64 games in 2009. That's at least 30 less than they'll...

Thank you Jack Cust, for saying what we've all been saying for a couple of years now. Jack Cust still wonders why his name appeared in the Mitchell report. Now, the Oakland slugger has a more pressing question: How come some prominent Red Sox were missing? "To me it was kind of a joke, the whole thing," Cust told The Associated Press last weekend. Former Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell...

Larry Bigbie, St. Louis Cardinals: Ah, proof that PEDs can’t make you even a decent fifth outfielder…

Hey, you guys remember Larry Bigbie? No? Outfielder? Played a little for the Cards one year, actually? He got hurt quite a bit. No, never really made it big. Oh, yeah, plenty talented, just didn't ever quite seem to get the breaks to fall his way, you know? No, that's Kerry Robinson. Bigb...
