About Erik »

25 years old. Currently live in Baltimore, MD. University of Maryland alum - Go Terps!!! A fan of both the Orioles and the Cubs since I got into baseball at age 8. Favorite sports to follow are baseball and college basketball. Watch NFL and college football as well but do not have quite the same passion for football. This is a great site and I hope to contribute regularly.

Profile photo is of Ryan Theriot, shortstop for the Cubs.

Erik,

I noted you read and liked one of my articles on returning the stolen base to baseball prominence as part of my season long look into the art.

Here is my last installment in the series. It includes previews and predictions for 2010 and who to watch for. Let me know what you think. I hope you like it.

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/270921-season-finale-part-v-returning-the-stolen-base-to-baseball-prominence/show_full

be sure to read all the parts of the series. You've read 2 and this is now 5.

Thought I would give The Relay for Life one more push before our big event Saturday. This one is a more in-depth look into the story of Dave Dravecky. Also posted a link for the Josiah Herring Funeral Fund!

Not a problem, sir! As the author you have the final saw on all matters (it's your piece, not mine). I'm glad I could be of some assistance and I look forward to your next piece.

Have a great day!

Your welcome for the edits and the comments, and I want you to know you are quickly becoming a valuable asset to the Cubs community. Your articles are very professional and the extra time you spend doing the necessary research helps separate you from the rest. Keep doing what you're doing!

Check my archives...I did a re-cap piece on the Cubs/O's series at Wrigley.

One of my first pieces so, not so great, but still a worthy read for O's/Cubs fans.

Hey I just have one comment on the Softball article, you said in twice in the sentence about the debut of softball in Atlanta in 1996. I was going to edit it but I wasn't quite sure how to change it. You may want to take a look at it, you may not. It's just a suggestion. Other than that I thought it was a great article

Keep the good stuff coming Erik - The Cubs were among 2 other teams I liked back in March to win the World Series. Of the other 2, the Tigers are finished, and the Dodgers seem rejuvenated with the Manny trade. But no one has been as consistent all season in the National League as the Cubs, they have been getting it done through-out and I hope to see them deep into October.
