Walk VS Single, Does it matter?

A walk or a single. Do they produce the same result? It is a simple question that doesn’t have a simple answer. The End result for both is ultimately the same, the batter ends up on first base. But is it really? The pro’s and con’s are relatively simple, a Single, given that there are runners on base gives them the opportunity to advance another base(example: going from first to third on a single) while a walk does not.

Al East Preview Part 2

Tampa Bay Rays

Hitting – The Rays (wow it feels weird to type that) continue to amass an armada of young talent in both hitting and pitching. The small pickup of Carlos Pena last proved to be a MASSIVE upgrade at first base; he was a monster and the power source that they were lacking all of these years. He showed amazing power, good eye with a 400+ OBP and solid contact. Carl Crawford is still the table setter and he is a lock for 50+ steals with his great defense and good average....

Al East Preview Part 1

American League East
New York Yankees

Hitting – Once again the Yanks are have an extremely good batting order. The lineup contains last season MVP Alex Rodriguez, one of the best hitting shortstops Derek Jeter among other.

March Madness Day: 1

So Far Kansas looks very good, Chalmers is still shooting the ball very well, I think Kansas's depth and complete package should lead them to the title(they are my pick) with 4 min played in the first half Kansas is up 11-3 with 2 dunks already.

Georgia is continuing to ride it's wave of excitement following the win in the SEC tournament, so far they and hanging in with Xavier. I have Xavier winning this game but I could see the Bulldogs pulling the upset and shocking the world once...
