		<title>For real, Richie?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
That picture you see is Richie Sexson ducking out of the way of a fastball.  (Sorry that it looks like it&#8217;s a YouTube video; I took the screenshot while watching a YouTube video.)  You might notice, of course, that the pitch is, as the French say, over le plate.  But did that [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cabrera and Guillen</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over on his blog, Rob Neyer discusses the Tigers&#8217; decision to have Miguel Cabrera and Carlos Guillen switch positions, with Cabrera moving to first base and Guillen moving to third.  Among other things, Neyer had this to say:
Presumably, at some point Leyland or someone else connected with management will favor us with the rationale [...]]]></description>

		<title>Paul O&#8217;Freaking&#8217;Neill</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The other day, in my National League favorites post, I had this tangent while talking about Roberto Clemente:
And speaking of Clemente and jerseys, I just gotta say how dumb I think Yankee fans are. LaTroy Hawkins wanted to wear number 21 to honor Clemente, but he met a huge backlash from Yankee fans because number [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rantings and Ramblings?  Really?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I think I&#8217;ve always known this in the back of my mind, or perhaps in the cockles of my heart, but I never really thought about it until now.  &#8220;Rantings &#038; Ramblings&#8221; is, well, a stupid name for a website.  Or more to the point, it is a stupid name for MY website.
I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Playing Favorites &#8212; National League</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I did the American League the other day (background is in that post, too); today we will look at the National League.
Los Angeles Dodgers
Favorite:  Russell Martin*
Why:  There&#8217;s an asterisk there for a reason.  Russell Martin is my favorite current Dodger, and one of my three favorite current players (along with Albert Pujols [...]]]></description>

		<title>Playing Favorites &#8212; American League</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over at ShysterBall (one of the most engaging, intelligent baseball-related blogs I have come across), Craig Calcaterra had what I think is a wonderful idea.  And because it&#8217;s not stealing if you give credit, I am going to use it here.  Here&#8217;s what Craig had to say:
Thinking about which Giants jersey I&#8217;d get [...]]]></description>

		<title>Two words: Wow</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As a Dodger fan from the 80s, this is the greatest thing I have ever seen:

I can&#8217;t believe they let Tom Niedenfeuer be in the video.  Weren&#8217;t they worried that he&#8217;d give up a homer to a 128-pound cameraman?

		<title>Come on, Shelley</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So Shelley Duncan doesn&#8217;t think the Rays should be upset about his slide into second, which ignited a bench-clearing brawl.  I could almost believe that, except that he actually refers to his slide as &#8220;play[ing] the game the right way.&#8221;  Let&#8217;s see&#8230;

Guess what, Shelley?  The ONLY possible defense, the ONLY way I [...]]]></description>
