While down in Tampa for RaysFest, BSG caught up with our friends from Boston, the good people at WEEI. They asked for his take on the new sluggers they’ll be seeing in Red Sox uniforms this year. So here they all are, in all their pre-Fenway innocence, Bill Hall, Mike Cameron, Marco Scutaro, Jeremy Hermida and Adrian Beltre. Enjoy!

We got a good one going in Detroit folks. Yesterday the Twins and Tigers split the doubleheader to keep the Tigers 2 up. Today they start the 2nd half of their 4-game series at Comerica. The evening win for the Tigers yesterday was thanks in large part to a 2 run scoring double from a guy who’s done it before for em. Have a look at the shot Magglio Ordonez hit in the 2006 ALCS to sweep the A’s and take the Tigers to their first World Series in over 20 years.

The Twins are in this thing folks. Their race with Detroit looks to be the only divisional battle left to watch down the stretch. BSG was recently in the land of 1,000 lakes to entertain the Twins and enjoy the hospitality at the Minnesota State Fair. We’re not saying the visit had anything to do with their current success, but hey it couldn’t of hurt right? Right? Bert Blyleven, this is all for you.

Tonight the Twins and Tigers kick-off a four game series in Detroit that will most likely decide the AL Central. With neither team in wild card contention, the stakes are high. The good people of motown gotta feel good about this one being a home series. Tomorrow night, they’ll feel even better if Justin Verlander has an outing like June 12th, 2007. BSG is here to help your remember it.

We’re gonna go out on a limb and say the Dodgers take the NL West. So to help get folks in a LA state of mind for the postseason, here’s a little gem from 2006. Back to Back to Back to Back, and then Nomar walked off. Sure, only Martin remains, but we think this bunch still has what it takes. Enjoy!
24. September 2009
Here they are folks, the big time players of the 2009 American League. Some you’ve met and know well. Some are new faces on the scene (Kendry Morales we’re looking at you). Some we’ll be seeing in October, and others… well not so much (Sorry Ben Zobrist and the Rays, we filmed this a couple weeks ago). But for now, in this moment, they’re all right here in this week’s Who To Watch. Enjoy!
23. September 2009
So we know things aren’t looking great right now Milwaukee. But at least your players still have a good sense of humor. Here’s the rest of the warm up circle entertainment. Enjoy!
22. September 2009
So we’re not gonna lie, with BSG being based outta LA, a Dodgers/Angles World Series has a nice ring to it. So to help things along, this week we’ll be taking a look at some classic moments in both teams’ histories. Today, we’re leading off with the Jim Edmonds 1997 marvel known simply to Angels fans as, “The Catch.” Niners fans, take no offense, we still love Dwight Clark too. Enjoy!

Even in San Francisco, at AT&T Park for an NL West matchup, doing a best of the AL Central video, everybody still wants Youkilis. Sorry folks, he’s not in this one, but you will find, Alexei Ramirez, Brandon Inge, Asdrubal Cabrera, and the rest of the best stances in the AL Central. Enjoy!

If the Rangers catch the Red Sox in the AL wildcard race this year, you can bet this guy will play a major part. We’re certainly pulling for him. So to get you Rangers fans in the right state-of-mind (cause we know Texans have confidence issues) here’s a look back at Josh Hamilton’s 1st ever MLB walk-off HR from July 10, 2008 against the division rival Angels. Enjoy!
10. September 2009
The big bad AL East. This is where it all starts and ends folks. And while it may be all over but the crying for any non-Yankees to clinch a division title this year, we wanted you to know that BSG hasn’t forgotten about these fellas. Scutaro, Aybar, and Markakis might not be names you’ll hear this year after September, so don’t miss your chance to see these stances in action now. As for Youkilis, we think he’s been fairly covered at this point. Enjoy!
6. September 2009
There comes a point in a man’s life when he has to be comfortable with big, athletic, grown men vigorously stretching in a circle around him while he does goofy little impressions of them and their colleagues for amusement. The court jester lives by one rule: keep the court laughing. Fortunately for us the Rockies all have pretty good senses of humor. Whew. Enjoy!
2. September 2009
Not that his vote will actually count for anything, but as the 2009 MLB season heads into it’s final month BSG thought it would be fun to take a look at some of the possible National League MVP candidates. Have a look, think hard, and let us know who he missed.
30. August 2009
In honor of BSG’s trip to Milwaukee and his stance showdown with NL All-Star and homerun derby champ, Prince Fielder, we thought we’d take a look back at the slugger’s monster walk-off HR against the Pittsburgh Pirates from late September of last year. This at-bat by the man with the most jersey in baseball spurred the Brewers on to their first playoff appearance in 26 years, and gave us all a glimpse of what a major league gut looks like. yikes. Enjoy!
27. August 2009
It’s that time of week again folks. Not that you’ve actually been waiting for it or that we do anything on any kind of actual schedule that you could follow if you wanted to, but nevertheless, the time has come. For what you ask? Why it’s Batting Stance Guy’s Who to Watch, and this week he’s giving you the breakdown on the best hitters to watch in the NL Central. Enjoy!
19. August 2009
You asked for the kung fu panda, and you got em. Check out Pablo Sandoval and the rest of BSG’s favorite stances in the NL West, in the second weekly installment of the hit show that’s sweepin’ the nation, Batting Stance Guy’s “Who to Watch.” Enoy!
13. August 2009
Welcome to the first of our new semi-weekly series, BSG’s Who to Watch! We figured if you’d gone to all the effort to visit a site about a man who imitates batting stances, you might be interested in getting his take on the best stances to watch on your local FSN channel (shameless plug) this MLB season. So we’ll be breaking down a different batch of hitters each week, starting with the NL East. Enjoy!
