12/30 Hot Stove – New Years Resolutions from MLB Network
We’re coming up on our first anniversary on January 1, so it’s time for our MLB Network New Year’s resolutions. Here’s what some our talent will be asking for in 2010:
Harold Reynolds – Trim the fat off of the fat cats. The gap is too wide between the big clubs and the little clubs. Look at the big free agents; they can only go three or four places: Dodgers, Yankees, Red Sox, Phillies, and Angels. This is not a trend I want to continue to see because it puts the beautiful job Bud Selig has done in jeopardy.
Matt Vasgersian – Grow to be the size of a real host.
Trenni Kusnierek – An all mid-market World Series! Bring on the Twins and Brewers!
Hazel Mae – Cover more team and player charity events. It’s important to me to help them move forward and give their causes national exposure.
Greg Amsinger – My resolution is I will not say this for an entire year: “Manny Being Manny.”

Rethinking the Al playoffs,twins/yankees. The “smell’ still lingers from that left field umpires call:”foul ball”.When you know that the call was completly wrong.Ball hits fielders glove[in play] ,lands fair,before going in the seats.
My problem has always been;what happened to the twins coach, their people in the boxes[mgt];the third base umpire, the second base umpire?
You reflect on past AL playofffs. the yankee HR/vs Baltimore, the Two calls against Boston!Umps replies; Guess I missed it.A whole season down the drain because of a moronic ,outdated umpiring system. I don’t want to see a professional game lost or won because of a “blown” call.
Old Bud dosen’t want instant replay! I wonder why?Baseballs reputation on handling drugs is a joke, what else are they hiding.
It’s looks like the NY banks; to big to lose
