• An Ode to Jorge Julio

  Where will he suck next? For a few years, I've harbored a strange obsession with Major League journeyman reliever Jorge Julio. Not because he's very good, mind you. In fact, the current Milwaukee Brewer is one of the most consistently awful players to make a big-league roster every year. His career is a testament to the severe shortage of quality arms in an era of relief-pitcher specialization: When you use four relievers every game, that's gonna create constant job opportunities for the

• Wait, the Marlins Are Playing Baseball This Year?

  With all the hullaballo and hubbub over the giant tax-pit ... um ... new Marlins Stadium proposal, it's easy to forget that the Fish are still a baseball team and the new season is almost upon us. It's a shame, really. For true baseball fans, Spring Training is the best time of the year. Everyone's still a World Series contender (well, except for the Royals), the grass is green, and Joe Girardi hasn't told any owners to go fuck themselves yet.So it's ironic that the County Commission is schedule

• In A-Rod's Defense, Selena Roberts Does Kind of Suck. Be Sure To Buy Her Book!

  You have Selena Roberts to thank for the A-Rod steroid scandal. The sports journalist broke the news for Sport Illustrated, but not after scouring all over Miami to get a quote from A-Rod himself. Five days before the story was published on SI.com, Roberts flew to Miami and engaged in what A-Rod himself is now characterizing as "Stalking." After being stopped from entering Star Island by a security guard, Roberts called police to let her on the island. When she got there though, the lights in Ro

• A-Rod's Miami family make headlines again as surgery news is leaked

  Courtesy of Wikimedia CommonsThere are a couple of unusual aspects to the breaking news that embattled native Alex Rodriguez is gonna miss at least six weeks of the baseball season to have hip surgery.The first is that the story was first reported by ESPN Deportes, which has even the New York Times chasing its own tail trying to catch up, and has gringo sports fans struggling with such web-translated Spanish quotes as:"For all the family it is a blow very hard, Alex it is destroyed", it said to

• The Yankees Are in Town! And They Bring Their Prices With Them

  Some of the largest crowds of the season are expected at Land Shark Stadium when the Marlins take on the Yankees this weekend and the Marlins' brass hopes to earn some serious coin. Fans interested in catching a glimpse of a 2003 World Series rematch will be subjected to big ticket price hikes. According to Ticketmaster.com, every section at the former Joe Robbie (Pro Player? Dolphin? Whatever?) stadium is more expensive because of the Bronx Bombers' arrival. And some of the most dramatic incre

• Marlins: Double Play Heaven

    Last time we turned to Florida Marlins baseball, we watched a mediocre team being pummeled by the best in the game. The New York Yankee fans were giggling at the ineptitude of a school of Fish that could only garner three hits. It was pathetic, But that was last night. And tonight it's all forgotten. That's because of two beautiful double plays that ended first a rally by the Yanks in the eighth and then the game in the ninth. That's because Dan Uggla is an ace at second.

• Florida Marlins: Nunez Over Lindstrom for Closer

  The Marlins' recent cakewalk against the beasts of the AL East revealed that Josh Johnson is a Cy Young contender, Chris Coghlan is a talented lead-off hitter, and after going 6-3 against Toronto, Boston, and New York, the Marlins are actually pretty good. Oh, and Matt Lindstrom needs to be removed from the closer's role as soon as possible. He was handed another save situation against the Yankees and retired the first two hitters without breaking a sweat, but then he allowed single, singl

  Somewhere in a New York penthouse right now, Jeffrey Loria is angrily straightening a Picasso on his wall, swigging a vintage Chianti, and cursing loudly.via Hazboy's flickrWhy wouldn't you fire the best manager in baseball?​His Marlins have missed the playoffs yet again. And Loria has decided it must be his manager's fault. Loria's front office leaked his fury all over the Miami Herald this morning, making it very clear Fredi Gonzalez's job is in danger.

• Miami's World Series MVP: A-Rod

  ​As far as I know, there were two Miami boyz playing in the World Series - A-Rod (Westminster) and Raul Ibanez (Sunset) - as well as a lot of Dominicans and others who spend significant time here. Though Hideki Matsui won the MVP -- and he's a Yankee I generally don't despise -- I crown  A-Rod our top guy en la seria mundial. I mean, he's the team leader and started like crap but came on like a pile driver. He batted far under .200 for much of the series, but hustled -- even stole a base

• Counterpoint: A-Rod is Still a Douche

  Jacob KatelA-Rod has portraits of himself as a centaur above his bed. And we all know the centaur is the douchiest of all mythical creatures.​Maybe it's a bad idea to publicly disagree with your boss. But I gotta say, watching this postseason only confirmed my belief that Alex Rodriguez is a world-class douche. It's not just the strangely purple lips or the gingerly smug way that he digs in at bat like he's got diamonds for testicles. What really confirmed my belief that A-Rod is a D-Bag
