Withhold judgment on Gonzalez
Gio Gonzalez was 20 when I watched him pitch for the first time. He was at the Phillies' complex in Clearwater, Fla., and it didn't take long to see why Pat Gillick had insisted on him when the White Sox traded for Jim Thome. You don't have to be a...Tags: ESPN (tv network), World Baseball Classic, Don Mattingly, National League, A.J. Ellis

Jeter's ankle could leave Yankees in shackles
For 17 seasons, Derek Jeter has been the best reason to keep believing in baseball. His throwback approach has yielded daily excellence in the middle of the Yankees infield. He has kept life simple off the field, and that never seems to be a bad idea....

Steve Spurrier is right, Tide could roll NFL teams
South Carolina Coach Steve Spurrier recently got criticized for comments made on a radio show, but one of the great things about Spurrier is that he could not care less if you or I disagree with him.

Can Maddon magic do it again?
Few baseball men are wiser than Joe Maddon. He proved it with this conclusion about the postseason viability of the White Sox after arriving in Chicago on Thursday. "You just never know, man,'' the Rays manager said. No, you don't. But you do know this:...

Dodgers' fortunes took biggest hit when Matt Kemp hit the wall
SAN DIEGO — I drove down here alone so that I'll have plenty of room upon my return to bring back any Chargers wanting an early start finding a place to live in Los Angeles. While here I thought I might as well ride the Choking Dogs for going belly...

Derek Jeter Is Still Playing The Game The Right Way
The Hartford CourantOnce upon a time in baseball, it was easy to enjoy greatness. Today, in the shadow of performance-enhancing drugs (known as PEDs), enjoying the players who stack up awe-inspiring numbers just ain't easy. Players, rightly or wrongly, are under the...Tags: Roger Clemens, Ernie Banks, Frank Robinson, Ron Santo, Johnny Bench

Roger Clemens: An Annoying Skeeter
The Hartford CourantThere are three places I have no interest in seeing a 50-year-old Roger Clemens: Cooperstown, N.Y.; on a pitcher's mound; or in front of a microphone … unless he finally has decided to hold a press conference to apologize for being a juicer. So I'd...Tags: Roger Clemens, Major League Baseball, Cy Young Award, Brad Mills, R.A. Dickey

Vegas favors a Michigan-Louisville national championship game
Groller's CornerIt's April Fool's Day, but there's no foolin' around in Vegas where sports wagering is at a feverish pitch with the start of baseball season and the NCAA tournament now down to its Final Four. Vegas likes Michigan, slightly, over Syracuse and Louisville... -
Papelbon does his best Melky Cabrera impression
The Phillies FilesBefore Thursday's home finale at Citizens Bank Park, Cole Hamels and Jonathan Papelbon took the microphone and addressed the sellout crowd of 44,070. Hamels said a few sentences and thanked the fans before turning things over to Papelbon. Then the......
