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 […]
When I was contacted over the weekend by Brian Walton of TheCardinalNation.com and Scout.com with about six questions related to the baseball agent profession, I had no idea just why he was asking me those specific questions.

Let’s start this with a shout out for Ryan Braun of the Milwaukee Brewers. Braun was selected as the National League MVP (Most Valuable Punim?). He is the first Jewish MVP in baseball since Sandy Koufax in 1963. I hope everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving and enjoys their weekends. There is so much to be […]
In less than a month, Minor League Baseball will host its annual Winter Meetings. This year, the four day event will be held at the Hilton Anatole in Dallas, Texas. As always, not all activities are open to the general public. The PBEO Job Fair and the Baseball Trade Show tend to be the main […]

Wow…what a week. I officially moved into my new office (send love letters to 175 SW 7th Street, Penthouse Suite 2410, Miami, Florida 33131), and have been busy setting it up while working on behalf of some new, amazing clients. I have expanded my practice to include quite a few major entertainment figures and was determined not to […]
Shabbat Shalom everybody! I will be heading to the Miami Dolphins vs. Carolina Panthers game tonight to check out some preseason action. The story of the week (and possibly the year) was easily penned by Charles Robinson at Yahoo! Sports.
