Not that I disagree with those sentiments exactly (though I do apologize for the misspelling, Anglophile that I am), but I’d like to expand a bit today.

I think that was a bit of an over-reaction.
So today, we...Read Full Story

This is all in stark contrast to the player that road his...Read Full Story
Outfielder Kosuke Fukudome is expected to make his announcement tonight on whether or not he is coming to the United States, but reports have already come out saying that he will be.

Bastian, in his latest inbox. Surprised that he was comfortable being so definitive. I guess the Indians have made it clear to him that there's no chance, which strikes me as a bit odd.
Perhaps Kosuke has made it clear to those in the know that he's not going to play in America?
