Ever eince the New York Daily News became "NY's Picture Newspaper", sports photgraphy has become a Gotham speciality. GBM's Kevin Klinger would agree, though his work is more editorial. |

(Eds. Note) Join us in welcoming Mark Leff, our newest addition, to Gotham Baseball Magazine. He comes to us with a solid background in both print and broadcast journalism, and I hope you'll all make him feel welcome. In addition to working on our various baseball beats, Mark will be popping in on Gotham Sports Radio as well.
To say that the biggest concern for the Mets this offseason is pitching
(especially starting) would be accurate but deceptive. The way the game
is played today, with starters only expected to go six innings, pitching
is the biggest hole for nearly every team.

My grandfather was born on Christmas Day, in 1895. Or perhaps Christmas Eve. Or maybe the day after Christmas.
Nobody’s certain. What Joseph Lippman did know was that he was the
second son of Wolf Lippman, an immigrant tailor living on Henry Street
in Manhattan’s Lower East Side. Lippman wasn’t even the family name. It
was some Polish-Jewish jawbreaker that an Ellis Island clerk had
rewritten. I often wished that clerk had given Wolf something easier to
spell, like Mays, Thomson, or Ott. But Joe was the first of three
generations of my family to root for the Giants, and his love of his
team was his major legacy to me.

"If I want to spend $4 million on a ballplayer, I will. If I want to spend $12 million, I will. ...It's my (bleep) money and I'll do what I want." - Padres owner Ray Kroc
It's a good bet that super agent Scott Boras wishes that the late Ray Kroc was still around.
Since he's not, and a less-than-impressive free agent class is at the fore, this space figures that the ridiculous money spent at last year's Winter Meetings is not going to repeat itself. |

Every scout dreams of the "five-tool" player. Every once in a while, a rare specimen that can run, throw, hit for power, hit for average and plays great defense makes his debut on some local ball field and becomes a star. On Broadway, the critic looks for the same kind of rare package in a new show.

There is a new sheriff in the Bronx, his name is Joe Girardi. He is of
course a former Yankee player and coach, therefore his pinstripe
pedigree is beyond question. But the big question is will his guidance
yield different results than his predecessor, the venerable Joe Torre?
