Since when was diversity an issue in baseball?

So baseball is not diverse enough, apparently. Oh bloody hell. Looking at all pro sports, baseball is the most diverse. And apparently baseball doesn't have enough black pitchers. I'm sorry, but I'm tired of hearing about certain workplaces/schools not being diverse enough. Whatever happened to simply choosing the best person for the job? Especially in baseball, or any other pro sport, I really don't think that race has anything to do with it. You simply have to be the best. Period. You can be black, white, asian, latino, anything, and if you are the best, you get the job.

This may simply be a rumor, but I still don't care for Jeffery Loria, and I have no idea why he was allowed to own another baseball team. The article pretty much says it all, so I'm not going to add to it.

Braun on Braun

Pujols is the man.

So a guy has hit two solid base hits and a towering Bonds-esque three-run shot over the right field fence, there are two outs and the bases are empty, what do you do? Well, I guess there are several things you could do, but what you don't do is pitch to the guy. Give him first base. The guy after him hasn't done jack, this guy is obviously seeing the ball well. This isn't rocket science.

Well, when you pitch to him, you give up a home run after the umpire has already rung him up on two strikes and then you lose the game by one bloody run.

That's all I have for now.

Oh yeah, Duke sucks.
