Dear Bud. An open letter to address the issues of change for MLB. Alternately titled: If I were commissioner
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 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.

Bring on the Phillies
What’s up with the Phillies? Tonight’s game should be epic with Doc pitching against CC but seriously why are the Phil’s so bad this year? They’re scoring is down. What bat did they lose that has brought them to this? The Yankees open a three night stand tonight with Doc’s team, then they do some cross town bashing late this week. I think they could easily go 5-1 if not 6-0.
Contraction: An Opening Argument
Contraction.
I know, it’s a dirty word. Merely saying it to some people causes their eyes to bulge and their stomachs to contract with copious amounts of acid.
But this post starts my argument for it. Anyone who has been around me for any amount of time knows that I consider the National League to be mostly quad A ball. That is to say that it is barely a step above triple A ball. I recently heard Vince Scully say that we have “watered our summer wine.” He went on to say that he thought we were trotting out 3 or 4 teams each night that are nothing more than AAA teams.
MLB passes the Anti-Yankee Rule?
Major League Baseball passed a new post-season rule today. They have eliminated the day off between games 4 and 5 of the League Championship series (LCS).
The post season is just too long! Too much time off. Last year, the Yankees and Phillies had 14 and 17 days off during the regular season respectively.
During the off-season guess how many games off they had? ***Wait for it***
***Gasp***
14 days!!!
***Shudder***CRY***SHOW ANGST***
Money Doesn’t Buy Rings; The Yankees are Just Better
As a Yankee fan, I’m used to people hating on the Yankees.
I get it.
People hate winners and want to blame winners for their own team’s misery.
I know a guy on Facebook that I have thought about deleting because every time I bring up the Yanks, he gripes about how MLB is broken.
Whining is whining. It’s annoying when a three-year-old does it because he perceives something isn’t fair and it’s annoying when a grown man does it about baseball.
