Former Mets GM Steve Phillips has bold idea to speed up games - NY Daily News
Long story short, he proposes a rule change that would speed games up and save wear and tear on young pitchers and assorted million dollar arms, while catering to the gnat-like attention span that millennials seem to...
2016 Allen and Ginter checklist
I see some Dodgers autos I definitely like to pick up, but I'm going to assume the prices will be crazy: Fernando Valenzuela, Frankie Montas and Corey Seager. Maeda's there, too, and so is no-longer-a-Dodger Zach Lee.
I don't follow prospects, especially international ones, very much at all. I've got to imagine that this is a pretty tough blow to their organization, though.
I agree with you, but not if it's LeBron doing it. I know a great many are in absolute love with the guy, but I can't stand the man. I can't put my finger on exactly why this is, but I find him very unlikable. There's no denying he's one helluva player, though.
I assume you'll be buying at least three sets. I would also assume you'd want to turn some sort of profit them, or will you be selling them for raw cost plus shipping? ($2.78-ish + shipping)
Items have been popping up pretty regularly over the past several weeks, so time for an update.
Back in 2012 or so, I picked up this mask film negative for his 1986 Topps Super card - this one was used for the yellow tones in the final card.
A few weeks ago, the mask negative for the magenta...

Thank you, thank you, thank you. It's about damn time.
Van Slyke back, Trayce Thompson doing very well, Ethier hopefully coming back in mid to late June, and even Howie Kendrick doing a better job. Sure, he's a nice guy, but his...
For a guy I had never heard of until this thread, he had a pretty decent impact on baseball history. He is considered the "father" of the modern knuckleball, played 12 seasons (all with the Athletics) and went on to be a MLB umpire.

Unfortunately, aanewport didn't have a gold Butler, but I appreciate him looking for me. Luckily, Burbank listed one the other day, so I snapped it up. Paid more than I would have liked ($20), but I'm not at all upset at being able to cross a really tough variation off the list. Like most of...
Tough outing for the kid. All over the place with his pitches, and imo was wild enough that the Mets didn't have to work too hard to lay off anything that wasn't a strike. Thought a couple strikes weren't called because of his wildness.
Here's hoping he learns from this and doesn't lose the...
So an 8 game suspension is either the penalty for throwing (or landing?) a punch or it is a gift because Joe Torre is secretly delighted that Bautista got jacked up.
Cheap shot? I beg to differ. If Bautista completes his slide and continues towards his own dugout, it ends. However, he immediately gets up, bows up and starts to bring his hands up and close his fists. Trouble is, he just wasn't quick enough.
Look, I get that people are/were pissed about...
