$59,750.00 was the winning bid for this very famous set of autographs from all four of The Beatles, during their visit with Elvis on August 27th, 1965.
The auction was held on April 5th at Heritage Auction Galleries in Dallas. I was talking to my friend at FansOnTheRun about what a big deal it is [...]
Monday proved to be mostly a day of paperwork and procedure as the deadline for MLB teams to offer their free agents salary arbitration expired at 11:59 p.m. ET. Players that were extended the offer included CC Sabathia, Mark Teixeira, Manny Ramirez, Francisco Rodriguez, Brian Fuentes, Ben Sheets, A.J. Burnett, Derek Lowe, Oliver Perez, Raul Ibanez, Jason Varitek and Orlando Hudson. Included among the players that did not make the arbitration roll call were Trevor Hoffman, Bobby Abreu, Andy P

Obama camp: Lawsuits by citizens are 'garbage' Friends and Patriots, It seems that the Obama camp considers anyone who questions the COLB of Obama via using a lawsuit GARBAGE! I don't think anyone asking for clarification on this garbage, but that is some more of the change coming to our country.

The free agent signing period opens today and Bill Baer, Joe Hamrahi, Michael Street, Matt Sisson and I have put our heads together to rank the current field of free agents by position and put them together in a list below: BASEBALL DIGEST DAILY’S FREE AGENT RANKINGS (BY POSITION) Note: Some players added to the list were players who were waived and refused assignment or released and available on the open market but not found on most free agent trackers.

USA - The Major League free-agent class of 2008-09 includes a Megastar slugging outfielder (Manny Ramirez), one of the top - if not the best - starting pitchers (CC Sabathia) in the game today, and a slew of difference-makers (Mark Teixeira, A.J. Burnett, Francisco Rodriguez, etc.) that will make the upcoming winter meetings a memorable one. BaseballdeWorld presents the 183 players who have filed for free agency.

Forty-two more players filed for free agency on Friday for a two-day total of 107. The latest batch included left-hander Darren Oliver and outfielder Juan Rivera from the Angels and Nomar Garciaparra from the Dodgers. Rivera could be quite a bargain for an outfielder-starved team like the Giants or Padres (though he might be better suited to an A.L. team where he can DH at least part of the time) and deserves a chance to play more often than he has with the Angels the past couple years. Missi

As you may know, Drew Magary, co-founder of Kissing Suzy Kolber and good friend to this site, released his debut book, entitled Men With Balls, earlier this week. Unsurprisingly, it’s ridiculously, and at times painfully, funny. The only remaining question is, will success go to Drew’s head? If the results of a recent book signing are any indication, the answer is an unequivocal “what do you mean ‘will‘?” *** (A line-up has formed inside Loose Leaf, a bookstore in Willowdale Shopping Ma
October 26th - November 1st October 26th 1877 - Former Yankees P Eustance “Doc” Newton (1905-09) was born. On October 4, 1904, Doc was drafted by the Highlanders from the Los Angeles (PCL) in the 1904 Rule 5 player draft. Doc will go 20-25 in 78 games for the Yankees. 1918 - Former Yankees INF George “Snuffy” Stirnweiss (1943-50) was born. The Yankees signed George Stirnweiss as a free agent in 1940. He joined the Yankees in 1943 just hitting .219. In 1944, he hit .319. He led the AL in 4 de
The Obamas are celebrating already. Michelle was ordering that lobster and caviar at the Waldorf. Plans for all the celebrations are, apparently, already moving forward at a feverish pace. Obama’s performance at the Al Smith fundraiser for the Catholic Archdiocesan charities, which was supposed to feature “comedy”, aroused in me a great deal of discomfort; he seems to lack true humor about himself despite the great lines written for him and there was a hard edge to some of his jabs. I think he
KT covered some Manuel lunacy in the Gallimaufry, and there's more where that came from: While the big offensive trio had respectable statistics or better, they didn't stop the September slide. Manuel said spring training will be a time of teaching, for him to give "clarity" to players on his methods. Execution in the clutch is his emphasis, and the Mets likely will bring in new offensive players, most likely in the corner outfield spots. So Manuel plans on teaching "clarity" (I assume this me
Like most everyone, I used to love Casey Kasem’s Weekly Top 40. I loved everything about it. I loved that we were listening to Shaggy from Scooby Doo. I loved that before some songs he would tell these bizarre stories (“And when Gabriele was 3 years old, she got her nickname, Nena, which means little girl in Spanish …”) and say absolutely nothing at all before others (“At No. 23 in our countdown this week, here’s Robert Palmer with ”Addicted to Love“). Most of all — and I realize this has bec
The Rays took Game 2 to put the White Sox on the brink of elimination. J.D. Drew’s 9th Inning HR gave Boston a 2-0 lead over the Angels heading back to Boston. Jerry Manuel got a two-year deal with the Mets. Mariano Rivera had shoulder surgery. Wes Helms signed an extension with Florida. Milwaukee beat Philly in Game 3 to stay alive. Bud Selig urged owners not to dramatically raise prises. The Dodgers swept the Cubs. The Curse goes on. The Phillies sent the Brewers packing in Game 4.
Jerry Manuel Back AgainHe'll be back!Posted on Tuesday, October 7, 2008 at 8:46 PM by: Gregory Gethard Tagged as: MLB, Jerry Manuel, New York Mets Over the weekend, the Mets extended Jerry Manuel's contract for another two years. This news kills my dream of once again seeing Bobby Valentine in disguise after an ejection. But what do Mets bloggers feel about Jerry's return? The first comment on METSBLOG Fire Jerry!!!!
