Anyone got anything to vent about. i have got something.
Baseball Tonght. It sucks now. Half the guys on there dont know a thing about baseball. Case and point: Steve Phillips. Phillips is an idiot. On top of that, he used to be a GM for the Mets. I have the upmost respect for him because he was able to do that, but he is dumb and doesn't belong on a baseball anylist show. For example, he once said Cliff Lee was the best left handed pitcher in baseball. Harold Reynolds, one who deserves to be on the show and does happen to know about baseball, laughed and pointed out that Cliff Lee wasn't even the best left-handed pitcher on his own team.(referring to CC Sabathia) For someone to make this foolish comment about Lee is just stunning. In Lee's own division, there are LHP such as Buehrle, Sabathia, Kenny Rogers and of course, according to Steve Phillips, the second best pitcher in baseball, Johan Santana. This is just one example of many former stars(such as Vina and Tino Martinez) who can't get jobs with MLB teams, so they go here.
How it can be fixed: Have a Line-up that consist of Karl Ravech(my personal favortie), Peter Gammons, Harold Reynols, Buster Olney and a nightly apperance from elsewhere: Tim Kurkjin. Also, have the occasional apperance of former baseball stars, such as Vina to talk about baserunning, Maybe Tony Gwynn to talk about hitting and perhaps Joe Girardi to speak about catching. But they should go deep into the game and not talk about things that EVERYONE already knows like Kruk and his posse do as of now. As for Kruk, Vina and Tino, they should leave the anlyzing to the experts.
