Austin Kearns: Why is he still here?
Jon touched on it yesterday, but over 24 hours removed from Austin Kearns’s strikeout to end the game on Tuesday night, and I’m still in disbelief. The fact that Kearns remains a bench option, the last one it turns out for manager Manny Acta on that night, is a mystery to me. In my opinion, GM Chris Antonetti has some explaining to do, because what I see is a talented...

Austin Kearns’ Behavior Unacceptable: Douchiness, Immorality Go Beyond DUI
I’m willing to tolerate a lot from MLB players. Despicable though I may find some of their actions, everyone makes mistakes, and the fact that celebrities’ dirty laundry is often aired in public doesn’t make them any guiltier.
