8. Trout will not experience the dreaded sophomore slump.

Trout will put up good hitting numbers, but there is no way he gets 49 SB's again. He came into camp at 240 pounds this year...even if...

Yikes, I think you might have been hitting the vodka a little too hard when you wrote that!

Another Japanese middle infielder might not be working out...who could have seen that coming?

Don?t be surprised to see A?s shortstop Hiro Nakajima open season with Triple-A Sacramento | Oakland...

And he struck out the side in the 11th. Impressive A's debut for Neshek.

Pat Neshek just came in the game for the A's in the 10th inning, and he got the last out of the inning with just two pitches. Go Pat!

Nice, and while you are at it, could you fix things so the Twins play better? Thanks!

Sano hit the grand slam off of a pitcher named Goforth. Go forth and prosper, Sano!

I have seen Appel pitch in person 6 times this year (live close to Stanford). There is no issue with his velocity...he routinely throws 94-95 and can hit 97 whenever he wants (but he does dial it...

I spoke with a couple of scouts for Seattle at the Fresno St. vs. Pepperdine game this afternoon. For what it is worth, they expect Houston to take Appel (as has been reported all over this site...

I wouldn't take Appel with either the first or second pick, but I think he is going to have a very solid pro career. I saw him pitch at Stanford tonight and he was pretty much unhittable for the...

Zunino is hitting .245/.312/.457 in SEC games this year (25 games so far). Not exactly awe-inspiring numbers.

Ask and ye shall receive. Sadly, Mariano Rivera tore his ACL today and is likely done for the year. The Yanks will probably bump Robertson to the 9th inning and Soriano to the 8th inning, but they...

I live in NorCal and go to Stanford games on a regular basis. I saw Scott Boras at a game last weekend, so that likely means that he is recruiting Appel to be one of his clients. If Appel ends up...

Hard to top Game 6, but I attended the '93 All-Star game at Camden Yards and Kirby was the MVP of the game. So that is my personal favorite Kirby "moment."
