Should Trout Give 27 to Vlad?
Should Trout Give 27 to Vlad?
When Derek Jeter received his first professional jersey the Yankees very intentionally gave him the #2 knowing that he would one day become a Hall of Fame player and knowing that they would retire his jersey. When Mike Trout was promoted to the majors he was considered the #1 prospect in all of baseball and was known to be an immediate impact player. Trout was given a jersey with the #27 on the…

Bryce Harper hit the ball to the mound, jogged to first base and took a right turn to the dugout before getting halfway down the basepath. That would be his final play in the Washington Nationals' 4-3 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals on Saturday. First-year manager Matt Williams will...
Considering this is Matt Williams's first year as a manager, it's admirable that he made such a daring move that puts him in contention for worst manager in the MLB. The competition is tough, but with this move, Williams really let himself be known to people complaining about the ineptitude of MLB managers everywhere.
Former Angels OF/1B Darin Erstad, now a coach for the Nebraska Cornhuskers, throws out the first pitch Saturday as Kansas City defends home turf vs. the Boston Red Sox.
July 12, 2012 Jamestown Sun By: Dave Selvig He (Rick Helling) received a scholarship to play football at UND, but prior to his freshman season in Grand Forks he helped the Fargo Post 2 American Legion baseball team to the World Series where he became a hot commodity in scouting circles. He red-shirted his one season in Grand Forks, but was still being tugged by scouts and teammates to stick with baseball. So after much consideration he transferred to a community college in Illinois and had more success, which led to being recruited by Stanford. His grades were “good enough to get in,” to the academically renowned university and after a strong season for Stanford in 1992 he was drafted by the Rangers in the first round of the Major League Baseball draft. “I went from being a nobody literally, to in a couple of years I’m at Stanford, then pitching on the Olympic team (1992) to being a first-round pick,” Helling said. “There was a lot of hard work in there obviously, but I was fortunate too. For whatever reason things fell into place.” Not blessed with great stuff like Pedro Martinez, Randy Johnson, Roger Clemens, Curt Schilling and other greats of his era, Helling was a true pitcher. His 93-81 career record included a 20-7 mark in 1998. He was also a two-time World Series champion. He did not finish the season with the Florida Marlins when they won in 1997, he was traded to Texas in the middle of the season, but was still awarded a championship ring. He was back with the Marlins in 2003 when they beat the New York Yankees.
