Who Should Be The Mets' 2012 Opening Day Starter?

At Tuesday's Thurman Munson Awards Dinner, R.A. Dickey and Daniel Murphy were honored for something, though I'm at a loss as to what that was. Murphy took home the first ever Thurman Rising Star Award, whatever that is. The dinner raised money and awareness for AHRC-New York City, which provides...

Marlins 6, Mets 2: We Waited Six Months For This

I haven't written a real recap in more than six months and I'll confess to a bit of rustiness. The Mets looked to have the same problem tonight against Josh Johnson, but then they always have problems with Johnson, but then so do most teams. Great pitchers have a way of making decent teams look...

Fantasy Baseball Morning Cup-O-Links: Opening Day Part Deux

One of the more pointless argument cul-de-sacs I've been sucked into repeatedly is some variation on the theme of "I Can't Believe You Don't Like What I Like." What follows is a list of songs that I like - but it's not a prescription - just some tracks I think could enhance the fan experience at...
