You know, I hear other people complaining about their team's newspaper coverage, but I feel pretty fortunate in that respect. I get the San Francisco Chronicle on my doorstep every morning, and A's beat writer Susan Slusser is a damn good reporter. This story about Eric Byrnes in the Dominican Republic is another example of her fine work. She deserves some props. By the way, this picture of Byrnes from Slusser's article is the perfect example of why Billy Beane may swap him for Mike Cameron. How often do you make a catch like that in the outfield if you haven't misjudged the ball to begin with?

MLB Heavyweight Champion
If MLB champs were decided like boxing: beat the champ, and you're the champ.
The 2008 season started with the Red Sox as champs. They were beaten by the A's, who were beaten back by Boston, who were then swept by Toronto, who lost to Oakland, who lost to Cleveland, and so on, until we reached our current champion. The Heavyweight of the Year is the team that wins the most title bouts at the end of the season.
