Astros GM Ed Wade is either incredibly stupid or incredibly genius. In the interest of playing devil's advocate, we're trying to find evidence of the latter...

I don't understand it? When he comes into a tie game is he trying to pitch differently than if it was a save situation? This year has been so uncharacteristic of him. He's always proved to be calm and clutch and he's done nothing but prove it this year again, hence the 26 out of 26 in saves. Does he have Billy Wagner disease, that unless it's a save he can'...

If you look closely at this card, Charlie Kerfeld, who looks like the derelict woodsman son of Wayne Newton, is sporting an awesome mullet and stud earring. He will never go down as one of the greatest pitchers in MLB history, but he gave one of the league's most unforgettable interviews.

yanks should of picked up pitching... joba cant get it done all alone, i still dont trust mussina, or pettite, they need to just stop trying to pick up 90s all stars, it pisses me off! do they not like young talent? i dont look at stats much but im pretty sure they are probably dead last in steals. i keep hearing how they have a nice farm system, but i guess we will never find out...

Yankee Stadium or "the house that Ruth built" is a baseball and sports icon. Many great games and events have been played on that hallowed ground. I recently had the opportunity to watch the Yankees play the Twins at the fabled Yankee Stadium before it reaches its demise and gets torn down after this season. A friend and I drove to the Bronx and watched the Yankees come...

It looks like my October rooting options might not be limited to whoever is playing the Red Sox and/or Yankees. Griffey, after being traded to the White Sox today, will get at least one more chance at a ring — an opportunity he hasn't had since leading the M's to the playoffs 11 years ago. [...]

Recently DFA'd LaTroy Hawkins has been traded to the Houston Astros for Matt Cusick. Cusick is a 22 year old second baseman currently in A-ball. I don't know what level he will play at for the Yankees, but here is some background info on him: He was a tenth-round pick out USC in 2007. While at USC, he had an OPS over .800 all three years he played there, including a .970...

Even with the Yanks getting the crap kicked out of them last night by the Angels, it was a very good day to be a Yankee fan. For all the stupid annoying stuff that Manny pulls every year and for all the escapades in the outfield, Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz have combined to be the best duo in MLB for a very long time. And now that duo is dead and we shall rejoice.Let's just...

In his press conference from earlier today Jason Bay appeared relaxed, excited, and most importantly, happy. It turns out he grew up a Red Sox fan and he even used the word "neat" when describing the atmosphere at Fenway Park. He said him and his ex-teammate Xavier Nady, now with the Yankees, have no choice [...]

When Kevin Millar wore the Wally suit last October, I hollered for the O's to get rid of him. He wants to root for the Red Sox, let him do it somewhere else, I said.
OK, so now I've changed my mind.
Millar, who was the target of the Yankees' Edwar "Gimme a D" Ramirez's whizzing yesterday, [...]
