It's another day without baseball, but it's a fantastic day!

[herestoharry2016]

I want the Tribe to come out against the Blue Jays like this tonight.

Showalter's probably going to need the bat. Like Buckner and Bartman, Buck just made the wrong kind of baseball history.

UConn Huskies host University of Virginia Cavaliers: course, I can't say UConn will be a particularly kind one

UConn Huskies host University of Virginia Cavaliers: course, I can’t say UConn will be a particularly kind one

Dexter and Mandark mixing it up at Pratt & Whitney Field Quick thought – Bronco Mendenhall is the first year coach of a Cavalier team which has lost 16 straight on the road.  Bob Diaco, now with his second season success behind him is only human, Huskies should manhandle the Cavaliers today, particularly by taking advantage of the defensive unit with a 28.8 % blitz rate.  The Cavaliers’ blitz…

C.J. Wilson of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim: free agent thoughts

C.J. Wilson of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim: free agent thoughts

The free agent LAA LHP C.J. Wilson, once inimitable, in my book, but now coming off a year-long stint on the DL as a result of season-ending surgery during spring training in 2016 to repair fraying on the labrum and rotator cuff, is free – a free agent, that is at season’s end. 2015 wasn’t his year either, in fact, Wilson hasn’t been Wilson since he left the Texas Rangers at the end of the 2011…

It may take 10 pairs of eyes to watch all the great college football action happening around FBS (I-A), week 3

Move over, I’m slidin in We’re ready for another spectacular weekend of college football. At noon, I’ll be watching: #2 FSU at #10 Louisville – once upon a time I revered the “ruskies” of Bobby Bowden and I still can’t believe he’s gone.  Definitely FSU.

This ain’t No Run DMC that’s for sure as Yankees can’t close out against the Red Sox in Fenway on 9/15 Despite the fact that Dellin Betances, Tommy Layne and Tyler Clippard have performed well since the re-build of the bullpen after the trades of Andrew Miller and Aroldis Chapman, there is no comparison to the juggernaut that Betances, Miller and Chapman were for the Yankees in the 7th, 8th and 9th innings up to the trade deadline.

Alabama vs Ole Miss: Will Alabama serve defeat with a side of revenge to the

Courtesy of listverse.com #1 Alabama visits #19 Ole Miss at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium in Oxford on Saturday ready to roll that powerful defense out against “Swag Kelly” and any crazy heroics he might have up his sleeve this year.

Seize the prey: time for Orioles-Blue Jays to declare the hunter and the hunted in 8/29/16 matchup

Pixabay.com Orioles and Blue Jays may not be birds of prey by Audubon’s standards, but by MLB standards, when the two teams match-up this evening at Camden Yards, they will each be bearing down on the title in the tightest division race in the AL (and in the NL, with the exception of the NL West). Yesterday’s heroics for Toronto: Josh Donaldson’s hat trick of home runs, Jose Bautista’s 3 hits out…

Baltimore Orioles When RHP Dylan Bundy (7-4, 3.33 ERA, 74 Ks) for the Baltimore Orioles matches up with RHP Chad Green (2-3, 3.66 ERA, 45 Ks and 5th stint with the big club in 2016), don’t look for a pitcher’s duel.  Even without Adam Jones, the Orioles will be fighting to gain on Boston in the race for 2nd place in the AL East race.  Manny Machado has broad shoulders and will continue to power…
