Please, No More Michael Young
Imagine that you are trying to purchase a home. You and the seller are on the verge of a contract for $300K. Just before the seller signs, he decides that he doesn’t like your lender and walks away from the deal. A month later, the house falls into a sink-hole and the seller comes back to you offering to sell again. Except this time, he is asking for $450K. That’...

Trade talks swirl again around Michael Young and Colorado Rockies
The winter meetings are usually a pretty dull period of time for the Rockies. They are not the type of team that is going to throw around huge money to big-name free agents. That's why it was such a big surprise when the Rockies name was linked to reports that they might be interested in the Rangers Michael Young. The rumors were quickly dispelled when experts suggested that the...

The Story That Just Won't Die

The Trade That Didn't Happen: Part II
I have every intention of burying the Michael Young trade discussion (which, come to think of it, has really been little more than an elaborate game of talking in circles for weeks on end, because I still don't think any trade is going to happen) and moving on to more pressing issues, but the baseball blogosphere is moving at a glacial pace right now, and there's one more curious...

The Michael Young Trade Rumor
It's so typical of how this type of thing usually seems to play out, and yet a bit stunning nevertheless -- a casual mention of the Rangers "listening to offers" for their de facto face of the franchise (Michael Young), followed by a carefully worded denial from team president Nolan Ryan which only clarified that Texas isn't actively shopping him around (which isn...

Young, Gifted and Back
Making Eric Young Jr.’s return possible, Brad Hawpe heads to the 15-day DL as he loses his hop. In the last four years of the minors, Eric Young Jr. has 87, 73, 46 and 58 steals, respectively.

Thomas split the most prestigious college baseball award, the Golden Spikes, with the first pick overall David Price this past offseason.
