Laying Down the Law
Published 6/27/2007 by StatsGuru at Baseball Musings
Lion in Oil interviews Keith Law , formerly of the Blue Jays and currently of ESPN. Here's his view of the biggest problems in baseball: I've never thought steroids were that big of an issue, and as a fan, I really don't give a Juan Pierre whether or not these guys used steroids or HGH or horse tranquilizers or whatever. The steroid "scandal" is about 90% media sanctimony, and I guess the only good thing there is that it gives me another point on which to rail on the mainstream sports media. The two biggest issues in baseball to me are the seemingly intractable problem of pitcher injuries, and the totally tractable problem of penurious owners.

... Lion In Oil interviewed ESPN's Keith Law.  Some great insight in there regarding the responsibilities of general managers that the general public typically doesn't consider.  As much as I love the business side of baseball, I'd make a terrible GM.  Definitely more of a 9-5er, that Tim Dierkes.  Actually 9-4:52 so I can catch the train I want. ...
