This is the last year that baseball will be an Olympic sport and it’s no wonder. Professional baseball has never got behind the Olympics like basketball has. If baseball were sending its top players to Beijing, the publicity for it would be much greater and its likely that baseball would be being played in 2012 […]
The Futures Game is a lot of fun to watch for fantasy baseball owners, because you can already start your sleeper cheat sheet for the following season(s).

To be frank, things didn’t go well. Facing former Cy Young winner Roy Halladay and the Toronto Blue Jays at Yankee Stadium, Joba pitched 2.3 innings in front of a crowd […]
