  • Fred McGriff interview; 40 years ago | Ep. 87
    Jan 24 2023
    Fred McGriff will be inducted into the baseball Hall of Fame in July of this year.  He was elected last December by the Contemporary Era Committee.  McGriff played 19 seasons in the major leagues with the Blue Jays, Padres, Braves, Devil Rays, Cubs and Dodgers, but I got to know him in 1983, when he was a teenager.

    The New York Yankees included McGriff in a multi-player deal with the Blue Jays and 40 years ago, when I was broadcasting for the Single-A Kinston Blue Jays in the Carolina League, McGriff was our first baseman.

    In my vast collection of tape cassette interviews, which I am trying to digitize, I came across an interview I did with McGriff.  We covered numerous topics, from his family, to his being the only member of his family and one of the few in his neighborhood to play baseball, to his facing Dwight Gooden in amateur baseball and much, much more.

    I hope you enjoy the intervew.

  • Red Sox did not make the wrong move | Ep. 86
    Dec 9 2022

    The Boston Red Sox did not make the wrong move in letting free agent shortstop Xander Bogaerts go.  I detail my reasons in this latest episode.  Meanwhile, the baseball winter meetings were fascinating, as some clubs threw money around like it was candy.

    In this episode, I also talk about Judge and the Yankees, the Mets, San Diego, expansion and much more.

  • Where will big name free agents end up? | Ep. 85
    Nov 15 2022
    It is awards week for Major League Baseball, with post season awards being handed out across the board.  Meanwhile, the focus is on free agents and where they will end up.  With the sport's labor dispute in the rear view mirror, expect a more active winter on the free agent front with numerous big names on the market. 

    MLB.com polled 50 of its reporters on where they believe the high profile ball players will end up and I also weigh in, including where the biggest name of them all, Aaron Judge will land.
