Muneori Kawasaki Rocks Intentional Talk, Delivers Comedy
We first featuered Blue Jays’ shortstop Muneori Kawasaki a few weeks back. He’d just delivered a game-winning hit and broke out a prepared speech – complete with note cards – to a jubilant Jays crowd. It was an instant classic that took the Interwebs by storm.
Well, Kawasaki is back. And that’s a good thing for all of us. Here he is grabbing the mic (headset) from Mark...
Mark DeRosa Avoids Flying Mitt, Makes Great Catch
In the eighth inning of the Blue Jays and Orioles game Friday, Mark DeRosa caught a limping pop-up that trailed foul just inside the front row seats along the 3rd-baseline. Upon retrieval of the foul pop-up off the bat of wunderkind Matt Wieters, DeRosa slips right as he gets to the wall, avoids several sets of fan hands, and then somehow still manages to make the catch. The...

Mark DeRosa on the Late George Sauer
This past weekend the New York Times ran an obituary for a 69-year-old former football player named George Sauer. Mr. Sauer was an accomplished wide receiver who made four Pro Bowls. In 1967, he led the American Football League in catches. In 1969, he played a prominent role as Joe Namath led the New York Jets to an improbable win in Super Bowl III.
He also hated his sport. Sauer...
Mark DeRosa called players-only meeting to address Blue Jays struggles
The Toronto Blue Jays entered the season looking like a legitimate threat to win the AL East, but they are off to a horrendous start. Coming off a four-game series in which they were swept by the New York Yankees, the Blue Jays are 9-17 and already 9.5 games behind the division-leading Boston Red Sox. They lost every game to New York by two runs or less, but winning close games is...

Giants have expressed interest in re-signing Mark DeRosa
Just a quick note — via Ken Rosenthal, the Giants have expressed interest in bringing back Mark DeRosa. There isn’t much to expect from him at this point. Projections are hardly a be-all and end-all, but I think the ZiPS projection for DeRosa in 2012 tells the whole story: .244/.300/.277. He’ll probably get a minor-league contract with an invite to Spring Training, and I wouldn’t...
VIDEO: Mark DeRosa addresses Penn football players
Before he was a Major League Baseball player, DeRosa was a star quarterback at the University of Pennsylvania.
Guess which San Francisco Giant played quarterback for the University of Pennsylvania back in the early to mid ’90s?
That would be utility man Mark DeRosa, who visited with the Penn football team (not to be confused with that other football program in PA) over the weekend...
