Been away from the computer for a couple of days, so here’s what’s new to me…
Christian Ruzich has finished a redesign of his site that now features many of my favorite writers all under one umbrella. Check out his new location at All-Baseball.com.
Also, our friend, Al Bethke has an interview with Chris Coste. Good guys, both of them.
In recent news regarding the BALCO indictment, the Justice Department has seen fit to release email exchanges between the firm and Gary Sheffield, regardless of the fact that they are needlessly slandering a player by releasing documents that have nothing to do with steroids. In this overly dramatic piece in the NY Times, Dave Anderson ridiculously compares the “steroid crisis” to the Black Sox. I just cannot get over the lack of fact and research evident in these major media outlets’ coverage of this story. I forgive Joe Torre for his ignorance, at least he’s not screaming for everyone to run and hide because the sky is falling. Writers like Anderson could get the facts straight on this issue in less than an hours’ worth of research, (maybe even, [gasp!], here at OBM). Sickening.
