Shabbat Shalom: Friday Wrap-Up

Another busy week of summer has blown by, which means that it is getting closer and closer to my return to lovely Gainesville, Florida.  Nothing against the town that UF sits in, but I am getting quite comfortable with spending much of each day down here in South Florida working on Dynasty and this blog.  […]

Sosnick Speaks

On April 25, 2007, we had the pleasure of interviewing one of baseball’s great agents, Matt Sosnick of Sosnick-Cobbe Sports.  If the name rings a bell it is probably due to the book License to Deal, which is a book that was written by ESPN writer, Jerry Crasnick, and highlights much of Sosnick’s trials and […]

Boras Loses A Couple Of Danks’

While I was sifting through the names of players drafted from the 5th to 25th round of this year’s MLB Amateur Draft, a few names stood out to me. Some caught my eye because I had talked to them previously about potentially serving as their advisor and others had last names that just clicked in […]

It’s MLB Amateur Draft Day

I hope that you got a good sleep last night. It is time to get a solid morning workout in and then get your draft binders out and find a comfortable place on the couch where you can enjoy the early rounds of the MLB Amateur Draft on TV and follow the remaining 40+ rounds […]

Let Andy Play

To think that the actions of a few attorney agents could be behind the indefinite suspension of Oklahoma State pitcher, Andy Oliver, makes me sick to my stomach. After speaking with various sources on the matter and receiving some interesting documents, I now provide you with a clear picture of the entire situation. Andrew Oliver […]

Scouts: Are You Watching Haran?

Newark Bears C/1B/DH, Gerard Haran, has very quietly become #3 in batting average and #3 in slugging percentage on a team that is full of talent.

World Series Sleaze

Sticking to the theme of baseball (it is MLB Amateur Draft week, after all), could a sports agent be blamed for Oklahoma State’s downfall in this year’s College World Series? It would be too easy to just place blame for an entire team losing a game directly on an agent, but could sleaziness have gone […]
