As long as games exist so too will cheaters that target those games. Taking a legislative approach to prevent cheating accomplishes a lot, but it comes with some inherent limitations. Primary among those limitations is that the system is necessarily a reactive mechanism much like the criminal court system in America. MLB can educate, inform, […]
Major League Baseball has fired arbitrator Shyam Das after 13 years on the job. His firing comes quickly on the heels of a vote that overturned the 100-game suspension of the Rockies’ AAA catcher, Eliezer Alfonzo. Too bad the sack job comes several months too late to save baseball from 2 separate black eyes. Alfonzo’s […]
Ryan Braun just beat MLB’s system for preventing the use of performance enhancing drugs, and he does not lack for help in building his soapbox. From that soapbox, Braun’s supporters are launching public relations attacks directed at everyone who is not #TeamBraun. You either stand with them, or you obviously hate due process, apple pie, […]
On the morning of January 19th, I started collecting links – as many as I can find with minimal effort – that discuss the Albert Pujols contract discussions. Why? Who knows, yet here they are.

Joe Posnanski has done it again. The most recent issue of Sports Illustrated has Poz’s sit-down interview with Albert Pujols, addressing (what else) his stance and defiance about steroid use.
