MLB Showdown
At The Sports Nation, we have just re-discovered the greatest game of all time. Somehow in casual conversation, MLB Showdown came up. Later that day I went into a cabinet and found a white box with all my cards in it. That was the highlight of my week.
From trading for shiny cards to playing small [...]
AL East
We will be starting a series of predictions down the stretch of the MLB season.
This division is always fun to write about.
The Blue Jays and the Orioles haven’t had terrible seasons, but they don’t have a chance in hell to make a run. Sorry.

AL West
I don’t really know what to say here. In my opinion, the Angels are the best team in baseball, and they are running away with it. Plain and simple. They have the best closer in baseball, a deep rotation, and a solid lineup with a daunting middle: Garret Anderson, Torii Hunter, Vladimir Guerrero, and Mark [...]
