    Check this out. The O's have had a rough month of August, with 10 wins in 29 attempts (10-19 record). But I really like what I see in this team. They've been fun to watch throughout the month, even in the bad losses they've suffered. Here, I analyze how it's gone. Give it a look. Thanks!

    Tom,


    I've always been proud to have Andy MacPhail in the O's front office. His trades always seem to pan out. Here, I take a look at every trade he's made as an Orioles GM, dating back to 2008. Give it a look. Thanks!

    Hey Tom,

    The New York Yankees travel to Fenway to take on the Boston Red Sox tonight in a three-game series. What are the keys for the Red Sox to beat the Evil Empire?

    Would love to hear your thoughts in the comments section of my post!

    I've always been interested with the Stephen Strasburg situation. The No. 1 overall pick, "best prospect ever", and all these ridiculously premature comparisons are thrown his way. It's August 12th, five days before the signing deadline. He still hasn't signed. Who is to blame for this taking so long? Is there anyone to blame?
