Don’t get too excited though. It won’t be this year. However, there is no doubt that this needs to happen. Sure, [...]

Ain’t this great? You’re getting a slew of updates from me today!
Yankees: After throwing a ball at Luke Scott’s head, LaTroy Hawkins was handed a 3-game suspension by the MLB. Hawkins will appeal and will be allowed to pitch until his hearing is heard. Doesn’t that sound redundant? Jeff Karstens was activated from the [...]
