Minute Maid Park | 8:05 | Maholm vs. Jack Cassel | Box First things first: I believe Eric Young used the “S” word a few moments ago on “Baseball Tonight”. He was describing the highlights of the Royals-Tigers game and referred to a hot hitter as “keeping his ‘excrement’ going”. Then he caught himself and said [...]

(Photo courtesy Eric Young) I always sort of figured that news of Gilbert's next destination, if not broken on his blog, will be broken by some random Internet type who runs into Zero holding court in an Filipino sandwich shop, or playing shuffleboard in Miami, or sitting by himself in a Tysons Corner P.F. Chang's. Well, my prediction came close on Thursday night. Longtime Bog reader Eric Young was...

Name recognition is one thing Eric Young Jr. won't have to worry about if he completes the climb through the farm system and is wearing a Rockies uniform at Coors Field.

This morning I flipped on SportsCenter and caught some baseball highlights, particularly Cliff Lee’s nine-inning, no-run performance that lowered his ERA to 0.67 after seven starts. ESPN's Eric Young was impressed: That's right, according to the silver-tongued EY, Cliff Lee’s success gives Cleveland five “formidle” starters: C.C. Sabathia is one, Fausto Carmona is two and Lee [...]

You know, it's one thing to see Tony Gwynn Jr or Eric Young Jr, guys who I remember watching their fathers play. Cutter Dykstra (I mean, that name, seriously) is about to be a top pick. But that's not the most disturbing thing I've seen recently. Tonight, I was flipping around and saw a blonde wrestler putting another girl in a Sharpshooter. A SHARPSHOOTER! I mean, the last guys that used that were...

Colorado Springs: Postponed Okay, so at least the Sky Sox didn't lose. Tulsa: L 7-3 Ching Lung Lo couldn't finish the five run fourth inning, and even though Corpus Christi would add a couple more runs, that pretty much decided things. Eric Young had three hits, including two doubles, but an unsuccessful suicide squeeze attempt (bad bunting by Lo) resulted in a CS in the second. Matt Miller and Neil...

Eric Young wishes he could have the final six games of his last season back. The senior from Tennessee had to sit out due to an injury, something that a lot of scouts have been talking about. Young would hope more attention is paid to his talent and skills—which are many—than to the injury. He [...]
