Hi all.  Here's how I see baseball on this Wednesday, June 28. The best games of last night took place in Phoenix and San Francisco at the MLB level and in Everett, Washington in the minors. Who said anybody has tamed the West? The Giants beat the struggling Rockies 4-3 in 14 innings in spite of a flock ...

Hi all.  Here's how I see baseball on this Monday, June 26. Thanks to a 10-game winning streak including a 3-game sweep of the Rockies, the Dodgers find themselves in first place in the NL West.  If the Rockies and D-Backs hold up we're looking at the most exciting 3-horse race in baseball coming out of that division.  ...

Hi all.  Here's how I see baseball on this Sunday, June 25. The Astros have 51 wins following yesterday's 5-2 win over Seattle.  Just 4 years ago in 2013 they had 51 wins all season long. It used to take a lot longer to go from chumps to champs.  The  Mets' transformation was considered nothing short of ...

Hi all.  Here's how I see baseball on this Saturday, June 24. The Yankees have a narrow lead on Boston in the American League East while the Nationals practically have the National League East won with a gigantic lead on the rest of the pack.  Both teams showed first-place panache last night, winning in walk-off fashion.  ...

Hi all.  Here's how I see baseball on this Thursday, June 22. The Yankees have finally ended their 7-game losing streak, and as far as I know they haven't any new injuries to concern fans in the Bronx.  The Mets' and Giants however keep singing the same sad song.  The Mets lost their third straight noncompetitive ...

Hi all.  Here's how I see baseball on this Wednesday, June 21. When the season opened some 10 weeks ago I wouldn't have bet on Colorado or Arizona being contenders in the NL West.  I assumed it would be the Dodgers and Giants duking it out as they usually do.  Good thing I quit laying my ...

Hi all.  Here's how I see baseball on this Tuesday, June 20. Last night's game in Miami should have been yet another stomping by the Washington Nationals.  They came into the game with all the momentum in the world having taken 3 of 4 from the Mets and pretty  much clinched the NL East barring catastrophic injuries to ...

Hi all.  Here's how I see baseball this Monday, June 19. As we're approaching the halfway mark of the 2017 season we can't help but notice that the World champion Cubs, along with the Giants and Mets who were also postseason teams in 2016 are going nowhere in 2017.  The Mets, already far behind the Nationals ...

Hi all.  This is a Father's Day edition, not directly related to how I see baseball on this Sunday, June 18. First and foremost, Happy Father's Day to all dads who read this.  I want to mention a Father's Day event nobody who was there will ever forget, and a Mets-related tribute to my dad. Father's Day ...

Hi all.  Here's how I see baseball this Friday, June 16. This doesn't happen often.  All 3 of the night's most compelling games took place near or west of the Great Divide. All were won in walk-off fashion and good pitching was lacking in all 3 games.  The oddest thing was that the Giants and their AAA affiliate ...
