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!

Garrett Anderson sets the Angels’ single-game RBI record.

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.

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!
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!
4. August 2009
Just as no good U2 concert ends without a rendition of “With or Without You”, there have been few appearances in the last year for BSG that haven’t involved a Kevin Youkilis swing. Back in February BSG took a trip down to Florida to visit with the Red Sox at spring training and got some face time with the man with the best stance in baseball. Learn everything you ever wanted to know about the AL All-Star, from why he sweats in his own eyes to why he based his warm-up swing on Jeter’s (yikes) in this 5-part “interview” with BSG. Enjoy!
12. July 2009
It’s that time of year again, so we thought we’d give BSG a challenge. It’s the full lineups for the 09 NL and AL All-Stars, each in under a minute. Tell us how he does.
7. May 2009
Partly because the baseball season is now in full swing, and partly because we agree that the current stance video for the Yanks doesn’t really do the team, or BSG, full justice, we’re breaking down the 09′ edition of the Bronx Bombers. Since we’re dealing with New York fans here, we suppose “Enjoy” may be a little too hopeful, so let the critiquing begin! (And Enjoy!)

Because they really needed some extra attention (and cause BSG just thinks they have by far the most interesting lineup of stances), here are the 2008 playoff Red Sox for your enjoyment. If you have issue with the selection, make your argument here for one of the other remaining lineups, we’d love to hear what people think.
