ESPN's Keith Law Calls Tim Tebow A Farce And An Imposter
ESPN baseball writer Keith Law, who has spent a good chunk of his adult life scouting and evaluating minor league baseball players, finally made it out to the Arizona Fall League to get a good look at Tim Tebow. He was not very impressed with what he saw....
Dusty Baker Panicked
Dusty Baker had a choice to make heading into the seventh inning of last night’s NLDS finale, and both options would have been defensible. Nobody would have blamed him for keeping Max Scherzer, who had thrown 99 pitches and worked himself through some high-stress situations at that point, on the ben...
The Seventh Inning Of Dodgers-Nationals Was Insane And Made Me Feel Insane
The seventh inning of the Dodgers’ eventual 4-3 NLDS Game 5 win was the wildest single inning of baseball since a certain other seventh inning of a division series Game 5 played exactly one year ago today. Where do we even start? Well, we start by saying that if it seemed like everything happened in...
Clayton Kershaw Saves The Day; Los Angeles Dodgers Advance To NLCS
The Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Washington Nationals, 4-3, this evening to take the NLDS and set up a date in Chicago with the Cubs. L.A. trailed for most of the game until a four-run seventh put them ahead. Starter Rich Hill got chased in the third inning, but the bullpen held it down (perhaps ill...
Did Julio Urias Commit A Balk When He Picked Off Bryce Harper?
Julio Urias got out of the fifth inning of tonight’s game against the Nationals with a brilliant pickoff of Bryce Harper. He spent most of Jayson Werth’s at-bat trying to get Bryce Harper out at first, and after a few tries, he finally got him. ...
Daniel Murphy Stomps Down Opening Run
After Daniel Murphy stole second, Danny Espinosa sent a single to right field. Murphy tried Josh Reddick, whose throw reached Yasmani Grandal too late to get the out. Murphy then made sure he touched ‘em all and stamped down his run....
The Florida Panthers Are All Wearing José Fernández Jerseys Tonight
The Florida Panthers paid tribute to José Fernández this evening en masse by all wearing Fernández’s number 16 jersey for their season opener. Here they are taking the ice....
The Nationals Are Stuck With Danny Espinosa Tonight, Unless They Opt For The Only Thing Worse
Washington’s Danny Espinosa problem is inextricably linked to its long-running center-field problem. If they had a credible fourth outfielder on the roster, Danny Espinosa would be nailed to the bench, and we would all be spared his nightly terribleness....
Are You Ready For The Flood Of Bad Writing About The Cubs?
Listen, man, we don’t have to do this:...
Even-Year Bullshit Is Dead

The Giants Blew It
The San Francisco Giants spent the latter half of the year tumbling headfirst down the standings, forgetting how to hit the ball, and watching their bullpen blow any games they managed to keep close. It’s somewhat fitting that their season ended with a great big fart of a collapse....
Javy Baez Only Makes Spectacular Plays
The Giants finally remembered how to play offense and hit the baseball tonight, but Cubs second baseman Javy Baez is doing everything he can to shut them down. Baez only plays baseball at one million miles per hour, and he attacks approaching grounders like Jim Harbaugh attacks glasses of milk. ...
The Washington Nationals' Bullpen Finally Cracked
A Nationals starter hasn’t thrown a good game yet during the NLDS, but they managed to jump out to a 2-1 series lead thanks in part to a dominant bullpen. Tonight, they looked human for the first time....

Blue Jays Play-By-Play Guy Won't Call Cleveland's Team "Indians"
It is news to me that Jerry Howarth, the radio play-by-play voice of the Blue Jays since 1981, does not use the name “Indians” when calling baseball games out of respect to Native people. But it’s not new news—Howarth has observed this practice for more than 20 years....

Hell Yes Tim Tebow's Teammates Should Be Trying To Make Money Off Him [Update]
Patrick Mazeika is a catcher currently playing Class A ball in the Mets’ organization. This classifies him both as a person who is struggling to make a living and also as a teammate of ultra-famous Tim Tebow. To Mazeika’s credit, he seems to have found a way to turn the latter circumstance into a lu...
