I’ve written on previous blogs as well as this one, that I believe the crowd reaction in Cleveland to Jim Thome is a travesty to say the least. I will fully admit, I am in the tank for the big man. The Thomenator is my all time favorite Indian, a class act both on and [...]

As most of us know by now, Jim Thome was dealt from the painfully mediocre White Sox to the NL West leading Dodgers two days ago. What I'm most interested in is not how this trade impacts the Dodgers, but instead, how this deal possibly impacts Garland's value on the open market...
