By: Brent Warnken | - If I were able to assemble a lineup with any eight players in the major leagues, these are the guys that I would pick. I have listed them in the batting order I would use form one to eight, assuming a pitcher would hit ninth. Just imagine getting MLB tickets to see all of these guys on one team.

- How Lucrative It Is To Be The Mvp
By: Yossarian Fisher | - New York Yankee Alex Rodriguez once said that if he could, he would be more than willing to trade in his MVP awards for a team championship. In other words, he would rather win a championship than receive an MVP award. Such claim, with all honesty, is really hard to believe.
No matter how much they deny it, every athletes dream is to receive the Most Valuable Player award. In professional sports, it is the ultimate individual prize. Why? Because apart from all the glamour ...

By: Brent Warnken | - Barry Bonds and Willie Mays have quite a bit in common. Having been good friends with Bobby Bonds, the father of Barry Bonds, Willie Mays was asked to be Barry Bonds' godfather.

By: Brent Warnken | - Introduction music is an important part of a baseball player's persona. While Major League Baseball, specific teams and contracts within the league impose strict regulation surrounding personal expression- both appearance and verbal- introduction music is an excellent chance for players to put a piece of themselves out there. Ball players get a short snippet of a song, any song, to play before they step into the batter's box or take the mound. What they chose can say a lot about themselves an ...

- There's A Baseball Bat Out There For Every Player
By: Sebastian Marders | - It'd be a nice thing if there had been one equation to help every one of us choose what the ideal baseball bat would be. A formula that takes into account the basic stats, height, age, ability level and strength. The power in my grip, for example, is way better than some and worse than others.
We are all different. Which is a good thing. If everybody who played baseball was batting 750 or better, the game just would not be the heart wrenching, nail biting experience that it is. T ...

- Dating And Dealing With Rejection
By: Marc Jordan | - The top three home run hitters of all-time are Barry Bonds, Hank Aaron and Babe Ruth. Bonds hit 762 home runs, Aaron hit 755, and Ruth hit 714.
Interestingly, each one also struck out twice as many times as they scored. Bonds struck out 1,539 times, Aaron struck out 1,383 times, and Ruth struck out 1,330 times.
My point, of course, is that they failed twice as many times as they succeeded. And yet today they remain at the pinnacle of baseball success.

By: James Raymond | - To real baseball fans, Babe Ruth is the greatest home run hitter of all time. When he hit 60 home runs in 1927, he hit more home runs than any of the other (7) American League TEAMS. When Bonds hit 73 homers in 2001, every team in the National League out-homered him.
