Veterans might be having a hard time signing long term deals. But the contracts handed out to Jose Altuve and Eugenio Suàrez show baseball's trend of paying players for their prime is not going away. Plus some thoughts on an improving Phillies team.

Sign Them While They Are Young - March 17, 2018

Love baseball? Need a daily fix of talking baseball? Comedian and TV producer Paul Francis Sullivan (call him Sully) posts an original podcast every single day, 365 days a year unless it is a leap year and then he is going to do another one. Throughout the season, playoffs and off season, Sully makes his observations, voices his opinions and brings on guests like former major league players and writers and actors, including Joe Mantegna. Agree with him or not, there is always thoughtful, funny and passionate baseball talk every single day since October 24, 2012. Sully has been a producer on TV shows such as The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and Ax Men and has appeared on ESPN2 and HBO Sports to talk baseball.

The Honesty Files Part 2- This is Fun but Dumb

I am using the old Sully Baseball feed to vent some thoughts. I am still hosting the podcast at Locked on MLB. But I felt like some of my more negative thoughts on starting the game should exist in a sponsor free zone.

I will come back from time to time on this feed to vent honestly and express how I feel that baseball opening in a pandemic is a new level of irresponsibility.
