Inside Baseball will originate from Crogan’s Montclair on Thursday Feb 15th beginning at 6 PM heard on 1550 AM in Northern California.

The new Street and Smith’s Baseball Annual magazine is out and it is quite good. We will have Matt McKenzie, one of the editors, on the show before I head back down to Arizona.

By the way, Street and Smith picks the Red Sox, Tigers, and Angels as AL Division champs. In the NL, the Phillies, Cards, and Dodgers.

Yanks and Mets as wild card teams. A’s second in the AL West and the Giants last in the NL West.

Any thoughts? Also what are your thoughts about the A’s most important question heading into Spring training?

Marty

P.S. We will post the show on the site this Monday (2/19). Guests included Ken Korach, Vince Cotroneo, and La Velle Neal III, beat writer from the Minneapolis Star Tribune who gives a great perspective on Shannon Stewart.

thanks,

Marty
