Baseball Coaching - Don't Forget Your Catchers

Catchers require just as much and probably a lot more practice time as any of the other fielders on your team. Work with them to sharpen their skills just as you work with your other players. It only makes sense since they may be the most important player on the field. Don't forget your catchers.

Baseball Autographs

Signatures of popular baseball players have always had great appeal to collectors. Autographs of baseball hall of famers such as Babe Ruth, Tee Cobb, Roberto Clement and Lou Geri top the list of the most sought-after collectibles. Even autographs of other baseball players who did not make the Hall of Fame but had outstanding careers, such as Roger Mares, Thurman Munson and Tony Consigliore, are also wonderful additions to a collection.

Yankees Land the Big Fish in Abreu

As expected from just about everyone in the baseball world, the Yankees made a move before the trading deadline. What wasn’t expected was that the Yankees would reel in such a huge catch: two-time All Star Bobby Abreu and pitcher Cory Lidle, who may turn out to be the huge sleeper that the Yankees need to hold up the back of their rotation. The Yankees didn’t necessarily need offensive help, but when you aren’t giving up any of your top prospects for a five-tool player, and a solid #3-4 starting pitcher, I think that constitutes as a steal.

BaseBall Bats - America's Favorite Sport

America's National Pastime reached its Zenith of glory by 1860s. Alexander Joy Cartwright modernized the game in 1845 to almost its present form. However, the specifications to baseball bats kept changing with each innovation and need. The innovations changed bat materials to the present aluminum alloy from the classical wooden.

Friday Night Lights

The lights were on and the music was blaring from the old Yankee Stadium speakers in center-field, as the crowd filed in slowly on this middle-July evening. After tossing warm-ups in the bullpen prior to the game, Jose Contreras made the long walk from the bullpen to the visitor's bench, to a mild chorus of boo's as bitter Yankee fans showed that there was very little love lost from his underachieving days as a Bronx Bomber. Randy Johnson was next to come out from behind the walls of the Yankee Stadium outfield, and he was treated to gracious cheers from the fans, probably due to The Unit having quality outings (6 IP, 3ER or less) in four of his last five starts. The players from both sides finished stretching and warming up, as they took to the dugout; after the national anthem was played, we would all be ready for baseball.

The Many Types of Pitching Machines

One of the best ways to practice your baseball swing and hitting is to use a pitching machine. The idea behind a pitching machine is that it automatically pitches balls at you to hit. These machines come in many different types and sizes and should be chosen to suit your needs.

Yankees Fans Living in La La Land

Yankees payroll still a major factor needed to be dealt with. Payroll disparity still not good for the game. Salary cap or something close is the only way to go.

The Young Guns

While it’s nice that the Mets managed to win the second game and split the series, it doesn’t really make that big of a difference given their huge lead in the NL East. What’s more important to take out of these two games is how well their young, rookie pitchers fared against the Marlins. The Mets had John Maine go for them in the first game, and highly touted and greatly hyped Mike Pelfrey went for the Mets in the second game.

Not as Useless as We All Thought

If his past two starts are any indication of how well The Unit will be pitching for the Yankees down the stretch, then I think it's hard to find a team that matches our front three of Johnson, Mussina, Wang. I'm not saying that R.J. is going to go out there every night and strike out 12 guys a game, and stifle the other team's offense every start, but I will say that we're going to be seeing a lot more of the Big Nasty that we were all accustomed to seeing in the past.

Baseball: How The West Is Won or The Lazy Man's Way To A Championship

In this day and age, the Central Division of the American League is where the action is, with Detroit and my Sox leading all of major league ball in winning percentages. Both teams are in the high .600’s, which is nothing to sneeze at. Contrast these winners with the also-rans in the Western Division of the National League, where a day or two ago, three teams shared top honors, first place, with a winning percentage that barely topped .500. Last year, if I recall correctly, San Diego, the ultimate division winner, was about to achieve that top spot with an overall record of LESS THAN .500, until Providence stepped in and gave that team of near losers, a rock bottom, barely respectable win-loss record by season’s end. The Padres were made short work of in the post-season, which was only fair, given their ineptitude. But it hit me that if you have a bundle of dough, and you want to pursue the lazy man’s way to a championship, you must make sure to buy a team in this low grade division, says Dr. Gary S. Goodman, top speaker, seminar producer, and Fortune 1000 consultant.
