About Matt »

I am a native Detroiter living in West Michigan. My two sports loves are Detroit Tigers baseball and Calvin College Knights basketball.

I like the designated hitter, I don't mind the BCS, I think the NCAA (DI) tournament should reduce back to 64 teams and the NCAA (DIII) tournament should expand to 64 teams. I think the NBA playoffs take way too long to play out and the MLB playoffs should never extend into November.

I co-author a Michigan sports blog with fellow Bleacher Report writer (and brother) Zac Snyder.

Hey Matt,

I'm writing articles about the MLB 9s and thought you'd be interested in the Detroit Tigers' piece.

Any feedback or thoughts would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Ash

Don't be shy, and as always, feedback is appreciated.

Hey Matt,

Miguel Cabrera should be the frontrunner for the AL MVP:
