Tomase: Yankees can ensure that wild card round is only a 50 percent disaster for MLB

It has to be the Yankees. For history. For ratings. For that Jeter (Expletives) t-shirt at the back of the drawer that's now three sizes too small (Hint: Mediums are not long-term investments). Baseball's playoffs are off to a disastrous start from a marketing standpoint thanks to Two Really Bad...

Hackett: Best way for Red Sox to spell relief is with starters

“Rolaids spells relief.” Remember that ad? Back in August I purchased a few packs of Rolaids in anticipation of what the Red Sox relievers would do to my stomach in October. After roughly three weeks of September baseball I’m thinking that I should have ordered a few crates… This season is truly...
