Hey Kobe Bryant. Here is your official, public invitation to come ball at my local Jewish Community Center (JCC). You know, in case you get tired of the one in Irvine, California. I am heading to Memphis, Tennessee tonight to host the University of Memphis’ first Agent Day with Jason Belzer tomorrow. We will also […]
The following guest contribution was written by Justin Herzig. Follow Justin Herzig on Twitter: @JustinHerzig. Let’s start things off simple. It is great news that the Collective Bargaining Agreement between the MLB owners and the MLBPA was agreed upon, and that baseball will continue without a gap for at least five more years. After the […]
The Pittsburgh Pirates will not only have their hands full negotiating with Scott Boras to sign #1 overall pick Gerrit Cole, the club will also aim to come to terms with Texas high school outfielder Josh Bell, who was selected by the Pirates with the #61 overall pick of the 2011 MLB Draft. Bell could […]
Really tough loss for the Miami Heat last night. Chris Bosh is not living up to his role as part of “The Big Three” thus far in the 2011 NBA Finals. Let’s see if the Heat are able to take at least one away from the Mavericks in Dallas. The 2011 MLB Draft starts in […]

That deadline changes when August 15 falls on a weekend, pushing the deadline back to the first Monday following August 15. This year fell into the exception, which is why […]

I mentioned that one major hurdle could be the Major League Baseball Players Association (MLBPA), which might not be interested in bringing about any significant changes to the MLB Rule 4 Draft.
