I headed to my office this afternoon with the notion that I was going to get some work done, but also try to catch a little bit of Yu Darvish’s start against the Twins. Of course, I forgot to take into account the fact that MLB and FOX’s relationship turns any hopeful MLB.tv streaming consumer into the third wheel.
March has sprung into April, teams have headed north from the sour Grapefruit and prickly Cactus Leagues, and a new season is upon us. That’s right, folks, it’s time for my 2011 Major League Baseball preview. It’s always exciting to know that baseball is guaranteed to get another World Series Champion, unless of course the [...]
Saturday night, Joe and I had the privilege of announcing the Yankees vs. Mets Subway Series game from Citi Field on Fox Sports. It’s always exciting when me and Joe get to offer some unbiased Yankee/DJ♥ analysis and pious commentary, respectively. When I saw the umpiring crew, I did not know what to expect, and [...]

He spends each afternoon in church so he can build up enough sanctimony to last the entire baseball season. But before we get to the regular season, I’d be remiss [...]
It is the month of February, which means many things to many different people, but to baseball fans it means one thing: pitchers and catchers report! Of course, if it were not February, it would mean there is still more time to kill until spring training, unless it were a month after February, and then [...]
What do Derek Jeter and I have in common (besides, of course, our boyish good looks)? From ’04 ‘til ‘08, I’ve been able to say we both get to watch the World Series on television. Sadly, I couldn’t say that anymore. The Yankees are (cough) really good. They won the World Series last year and, [...]
