Adam Loewen, First Baseman?

Sun, 20 Jul 2008 00:21:00 +1900

Per Roch , Adam Loewen is finished with being a pitcher. He'll try to re-invent himself as an OF/1B. This is totally crazy if you ask me, although I guess if he's never going to be able to pitch, he might as well try to change as quickly as possible. Fun fact I heard on ESPN the other day after Rick Ankiel hit his 20th home run. It made him the only player in the history of baseball to ...

On Barry Larkin

Sat, 19 Jul 2008 14:56:24 +1900

Let me start with this: Barry Larkin is my favorite player of all-time. For some time now, Redleg Nation has urged the Reds to “ Bring Barry Back ” to Cincinnati. Today, the Enquirer picks up the drumbeat : Barry Larkin is here, but only for the day, which is too bad. His deal with the Washington Nationals, as a special assistant to general manager Jim Bowden, expires at ...

Brewers probably looking at Street

Sat, 19 Jul 2008 05:57:23 +1900

San Francisco - Brewers general manager Doug Melvin told me earlier today that he wouldn't pay $2 million for "a tweak" in his bullpen. What about paying to acquire Oakland closer Huston Street? I just learned that Melvin's top special assistant, Dick Groch, is at Yankee Stadium this weekend, where the Athletics are playing the Yankees. The Brewers are looking for relief help, ...

The variously reported denials eminating from the office of Bonds' agent Jeff Borris give us pause, but the world of free agent signings and negotations, ...

Hey Joe, Where Are the Homers?

Wed, 16 Jul 2008 14:15:38 +1900

For some reason, Joe Mauer is one of those hitters who scouts and fans keep expecting a HR spike from, despite the fact that he has never shown the power he supposedly one day might display. For his career, he has a total of 40 HRs in 1824 ABs, which equates to just 12 HRs in a 550 AB season. Will this mysterious power spike ever manifest itself, rewarding fantasy owners who have patiently waited?
