Major League Baseball played a cruel trick on us yesterday. Traditionally, we only had to endure the Wednesday after the All-Star Game. One night without baseball or any other sport is actually a good cleansing of the sports psyche. It allows for a free night to do other things. But, two nights of no baseball?

Matt Cain became the 22nd pitcher to throw a perfect game. He also became the fifth pitcher this season to toss a no-hitter. 2012 has definitely become the Year of the No-No. While many are searching for reasons why, the truth is that they’ve always been anomalies and that is why they are so special. In June of 1990, there were four no-hitters thrown. We’ve seen three thus far this month. For Cain, ... Read More

Yesterday, the Major League Baseball Amateur Draft concluded. The MLB draft will never compete with the drama and intrigue of the NFL or NBA drafts. Simply, it just takes too many years for most of the drafted players to even get close to the Major Leagues. Stephen Strasburg, Bryce Harper, and Mike Trout are the exceptions.
