are you playing baseball or robbing a deli?


What is it about baseball where they take such a pure game and ruin it by playing it in the winter. I had a nice chuckle as I saw a number of the latin players dressed as if they were in Aspen during last night's Yankee-Angel game. It's not that I don't understand that it's cold, especially if you are playing the one 'sport' which involves you standing around for 3 hours and actually playing for about 4 1/2 minutes. I can see that swinging a bat when you can't feel your hands can be troubling so I wonder why MLB doesn't do right by their fans and try to find a way to avoid playing into November (which will happened this year)


How about some scheduled Sunday double-headers? How about a schedule which features more warm weather (and domed) cities early in the season? How about you stop letting Fox stick it in your five-hole when they draw up your playoff schedule!!!!

But to be fair: as we saw Robinson Cano in a ski-mask it looked like it was minus 40 in the Bronx but then the camera pulled back to show Joe Saunders in a short-sleeve shirt and the tableau was comical.

Cano is a very good player but maybe it's time for him to take off the skirt.
