Enter the 36 Chambers: The Lego Version...
Some of you don’t know this about me, but I am a ridiculous, die-hard, obsessive fan of the Wu-Tang Clan. Put it this way: I’m one of the few who’s still holding out hope that Raekwon will someday put out that “Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II” album we’ve been hearing about...

Oakland’s Own Comeback Kids

Oakland’s Own Comeback Kids...
It has been one of those years—a yearful of Mondays, as those of us with office jobs might say. Every time the A’s show signs of life, my hopes are dashed with an error in the outfield, an untimely injury or pitching problems. That third baseman who stuck out the tough times and who once seemed to...

BASG REAL Q&A with Billy Beane...
Since baseball’s going on a three or four day vacation starting Monday, I figured I’d run my interview with Billy Beane I did back in January, during a press event at the Oakland Coliseum for an already-forgotten video game called MLB Front Office Manager, which features Beane on the cover. Yes,...

Wait, I thought the Giants needed a powe...
Rumors involving the Giants and whether or not they’ll open up the company checkbook are getting louder and more pervasive by the day, but they’re veering off in directions most wouldn’t have imagined. Forget Jermaine Dye or Victor Martinez, Ryan Braun or Matt Holliday. The Giants have...

Giants shouldn’t trade unless it’s for a cleanup hitter

Giants shouldn’t trade unless it&#...
It’s pretty difficult to get too maudlin about how the Giants lost earlier tonight, which sounds weird since they lost on a walk-off homer in extra innings…to the Cardinals, no less. And this is coming from someone whose dad had World Series tickets in 1987 that went unused. You just don’t...

Tim Lincecum provides comic relief, and ...
Anybody catch one of the funniest moments of the season last night, after Tim Lincecum struck out Jason Giambi in the fourth inning? After giving up a first-pitch blast to Giambi in the second inning (the only run Lincecum would give up in his 4-1 complete game win), Lincecum was as focused as one could...

Recap of the busiest Tuesday ever...
I don’t know if I can remember a Tuesday filled with more sports activity than what we had yesterday, and to top things off I had family responsibilities thrown into the mix. I got a message on Monday night from my dad saying everyone was going to meet at 6:30 yesterday evening at my sister’s...

MLB Monday: Trading Holliday

MLB Monday: Trading Holliday...
One doesn’t have to be Billy Beane to figure out why everyone’s speculating on where Matt Holliday is going to be traded. The Oakland A’s have the worst record in the American League, Holliday hasn’t exactly set the world on fire in his first two months in the green and gold,...
