Dear Bud Selig, An Open Letter #3 on how to fix the MLB: Recruit Men Like Mark Cuban

Posted on August 18, 2010 by Joe

Dear Bud,
This letter continues my thoughts for you on how we can save the MLB. I realized how timely these letters are this weekend. Think about how good things are going right now for baseball.

With the exception of the AL West all of the races are tight.  The AL east is an absolute heavy weight fight.  The Central is interesting and the whole NL has compelling story lines

and

yet

people aren’t watching. That’s annoying. It made me think that maybe we don’t need to fix baseball but we might need to tweak the MLb a little bit more, which of course, is what these letters are about. To this point we’ve covered two fairly simple possibilities:

Dear Bud Selig, Letter #2

Posted on August 11, 2010 by Joe

This is a series of posts written as open letters to Bud Selig. The point is to throw out some proactive ideas on how to “fix” major league baseball.

Dear Bud,

Thanks for continuing to read my letters. It’s been quite a few weeks. I mean, Jeter passes the Babe, A-Rod hits 600, poor Tony LaRussa gets picked on for playing baseball the right way all these years (it’s not really his fault that Mac was putting stuff in his pooper to get stronger).  I’m not a big LaRussa fan. Talk about a guy that has his priorities screwed up!

Dear Mr. Selig,

I don’t really feel comfortable calling you Bud yet, but that might change. This letter is the first in a series of letters in an attempt to open a dialogue about how we can fix MLB. Let me be honest, I make a huge distinction between baseball and MLB.

Baseball as a game is just fine. It’s a beautiful game that moves like a wonderful sensual dance.
