Sure, it’s college football season. But we don’t care about that here at BSG Inc.

It’s the Week in Review! www.BattingStanceGuy.com Twitter: [...]

MLB Week in Review: 7/25/11

Weird week where games were rained out, teams lost huge leads, NellieCruz out RBI’d most teams, and Hirshbeck got drilled in his Area 51 while Roberto Alomar simultaneously gave his Hall of Fame induction speech. Well, what’s weirder than an UFO Observation Deck in rural Colorado? Exactly. That’s the setting for The Week in Review! [...]

Hockey playoff OTs, MLB Team Seizures & Trailblazer 4th quarter comebacks, even He is Risen, He is Risen, Indeed won’t derail BSG’s Week in Review. A carnival of appropriately themed jerseys & shirts will help focus the conversation. It’s a beautiful day at the ballpark. Beautiful day for a Week in Review. Twitter: @BattingStanceG

Jason Donald : Rookie Watch 2010

Jason Donald : Rookie Watch 2010

The Cleveland Indians introduced Jason Donald to the loyal Tribe faithful in 2010. His lasting image is holding his helmet with both hands at utter shock of breaking up Galarraga’s perfect game. Rookie Watch highlights the bad smell of that play….surrounded by bad smells. Too bad YouTube doesn’t employ a scratch n’ sniff screen. Rookie Watch 2010!

2010 Indians Preview

2010 Indians Preview

How many weeks into the season will calling these things previews start to sound ridiculous?  We gotta be getting close.  Man how bout that game 2 last night Cleveland?  You need an elbow repair STAT!  Here’s hoping the good people of Cleveland still have several weeks left of pulling for the Cavs.  Oh, and not completely unrelated to that, here are the 2010 Indians.  Enjoy!

2010 Tigers Preview

2010 Tigers Preview

BSG’s worries that Magglio Ordonez stored his mojo in his jheri curl mullet were calmed yesterday as Mags got his 2,000th career hit in a win over the Twins.  Those two seemed to have picked back up right where they left off last year in the AL Central, which should mean another fun battle for all of us.  BSG likes the Detroit lineup, and, like the rest of the world, thinks the Damon addition will probably help.  But he still misses that jheri curl. Enjoy!

2010 White Sox Preview

If there’s a better collection of stances in MLB this year, BSG can’t find it.  In fact he dares you, nay, DOUBLE-DOG dares you to name a better group of batter’s box antics than what they have going on in Chicago this season.  The 2010 White Sox are just loaded; Quentin, Beckham, Pierre, Konerko, Alexei, Teahen, Vizquel, the list goes on and on.  So here they are, your 2010 White Sox.  Enjoy!

2010 Twins Preview

2010 Twins Preview

The Minnesota Twins opened up Target Field with a bang yesterday, beating the Red Sox 5-2 and ushering in the open-air era.  The end of the Metrodome has BSG wondering though; are these still the loveable, blue-collar Twins of old?  One things for sure, with Mauer, Morneau, Nathan, and now Jim Thome, the Twins have the star-power, and perhaps the swagger, to make some noise in the AL this year.  Enjoy!

There might be something lost in translation as BSG takes on the sheer physical specimen that was Bo Jackson, but you get the idea, Bo knows how to break a bat.

Magglio Ordoñez’s 2006 ALCS-ending HR

Magglio Ordoñez’s 2006 ALCS-ending HR

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.
