Talking Angels with J. Keith van Straaten - January 20, 2018 Jan 20, 2018

Show notes

The Angels have the best player in baseball and signed one of the biggest stars in the world. There is plenty to get excited about in Anaheim. I invited comedian, TV host and Angels super fan J. Keith van Straaten to join the podcast. We talked about his fandom, Mike Trout, Shohei Ohtani, Mike Scioscia and what made the 2002 team so special. Giving Orange County its due on this episode of Sully Baseball.

Minnesota Glory, Pittsburgh Sorrow and Milwaukee Potential - January 18, 2018 Jan 18, 2018

Show notes

Minnesota fans might see a title unlike any other in history for the Super Bowl on the site of World Series glory. Meanwhile the Pirates are sadly breaking apart. The Brewers should push to win now in the depressed free agent market.

Rooting for Balbino Fuenmayor and Stephen Strasburg - January 14, 2018 Jan 14, 2018

Show notes

I want career minor leaguer Balbino Fuenmayor to make the Nationals this year. Plus I think Stephen Strasburg is one of the players all baseball fans should root for.

Rest in Peace, Keith Jackson - January 13, 2018 Jan 13, 2018

The great announcer Keith Jackson passed away today. Most remember him as a football voice. He was also a great baseball announcer. He would have had more memorable calls had Howard Cosell not stepped on him so often.

Twins look to raise expectations - January 9, 2018 Jan 09, 2018

Show notes

The Twins have gone from almost being contracted to being in nearly half of the post seasons over two decades. Yet without a title, nobody will remember. Minnesota wants to do something about that.

It isn't Collusion... it is the Free Market - January 8, 2018 Jan 08, 2018

Show notes

Friend of the Podcast @Cu8sfan (aka Cubs Fan With an 8) is wondering if there is any collusion going on with the slow free agent season. I say it is the Free Market doing its work.

All in for Rafael Palmeiro's comeback plus a Marlins suggestion - January 7, 2018 Jan 07, 2018

Show notes

Rafael Palmeiro is making a comeback at age 53. GOOD! Making a comeback all the way to the bigs would reset his Hall of Fame clock and give his career a better finish. I hope he does it with the Marlins, who I also hope become a safe haven for other comebacks.

Nobody Suffers Like Canadian Fans - January 2, 2018 Jan 02, 2018

Show notes

What fans suffer the most? I would argue that Canadian sports fans are suffering the most because they are waiting for hockey glory as well.
