INSIDE MLB
-
Cuban lefty Aroldis Chapman and his 100 mph heater are among this offseason's many hot topics.
-
Alex Rodriguez had an interesting season, but it's one that ended with him lifting a career-long burden as a first-time champion.
-
The Phillies didn't get enough from their offense, particularly Ryan Howard, or their bullpen to repeat as champions.
-
Joe Girardi needs to rethink his pitching plan after watching A.J. Burnett's short start on short rest in Game 5.
-
Johnny Damon's two steals on one pitch drove the Yankees in Game 4 and will long be remembered.
-
Andy Pettitte's been under the bright lights before. He showed yet again that he knows how to handle himself in October.
-
Cole Hamels couldn't get out of the fifth inning and Ryan Howard's strikeout total rose some more. The Phillies are in trouble. But how much?
-
Ruth. Rivera. Gehrig. Gibson. Jackson. After a month of voting. they're the charter members of our Hall of Fall, the five greatest players in postseason history.
