I didn’t hear the chat either, but I read last week that Tino signed on with ESPN to be an analyst for thirty or forty games.

Sorry Mike G., I didn’t get a chance to listen. I know how much you admire Tino – that’s too bad. But I’ll make a prediction: We have not seen the last of Tino Martinez in pinstripes. Coach or Spring Training Instructor, I’m sure he’ll be around. He took wearing the [...]

I wasn’t able to listen to the Tino Interview. Since everyone knows I have a man-crush (as Mike T. once put it) on Tino, you can imagine how this upsets me. Did anyone have the chance to listen? Any interesting news?

Tino Martinez will be chatting on ESPN.com at 1 PM this afternoon.

I said it before and I will say it gain. Get rid of this guy. He is a major distraction on this team. He makes $13 million per year and he constantly complains. Don’t just look at the stats when you evaluate Sheffield. He did nothing in the [...]

Maybe if Randy had thrown at opposing batters more last year he would have had a better year. The enemy was digging in big time against him, no problem. The good old days of Randy intimidation were exemplified by his throwing near John Kruk in an All-Star game. Kruk laughed nervously and basically left [...]

Randy grazed Damon in the left forearm with the third pitch of live BP. [...]
