There’s been a week to reflect upon Nolan Arenado hitting the 350th home run of his career last week. That number alone is impressive, but there have been 102 other fellas to do it as well. But you pair it with 10 Gold Gloves, and you have one of the most exclusive...
I can’t lie; it’s been a rough couple of weeks here in what was formerly known as baseball heaven. We followers of Fredbird have suffered through seven losses in eight games. Three of those coming at the hands of the insufferable makers of the worst beer in North...
