Good morning baseball fans! Baseball is officially in full swing and we can barely contain our excitement.
Here’s a look at what’s going on around the American League East.
- Cardinals sign Yadier Molina to a three-year extension.
- Stephen Piscotty signed a contract extension a few days ago. Yesterday he was hit by three baseballs in three minutes. Life comes at you fast and we truly hope he’s okay.
- Cleveland has extended Roberto Perez.
- St. Louis has resigned Stephen Piscotty to a six-year contract extension. Not that’s some commitment.
- So we’re three games into the season and injuries have already creeped up on the Mets’ pitching rotation.
- What’s the best time zone for a sports fan to live in?
- SuntTrust Park has plenty to offer, including very overpriced food and horribly long lines.
- Here’s Mike Trout very quietly reminding you that he’s Mike Stinkin’ Trout.
- We asked you guys how you feel about your team’s front office. You gave us answers. Read those answers, the good, the bad, and the ugly, all right here.
- Could baseball possibly return to Montreal?
- The Rockies 2017 Opening Day payroll has set a franchise record.
- Opening Week is going full throttle ahead. Here’s what we’ve learned so far.

- It’s Gronk’s world and we’re all just living in it.
