2010 Baseball Season is fast approaching!

For the Baseball Fanatic!!!
This year marks the second season for the MLB Network and for the lucky subscribers on the cable companies that choose to cover it, you have indeed found a great treasure. For myself, I have lost interest in ESPN and their constant coverage of NFL Football, can you give it a break please. The only reason to watch ESPN is Sunday Night Baseball with Hall of Famers Jon Miller and Joe Morgan. Otherwise, MLB Network has ESPN beat hands down.

The access to all teams and games on the MLB Network is amazing. The Live Look-In to the games give you live highlights, the home runs, the great defensive plays, the strikeouts, and also the double plays, sacrifice bunts and even balks. Real baseball, not just the spectacular highlights to get ratings.

The commentators like Victor Rojas, Greg Amsinger, Matt Vasgersian, Trenni Kusnierek, Hazel Mae, Matt Yallof and former players on MLB Network are much more informed and entertaining than ESPN. Harold Reynolds, Barry Larkin, Billy Ripken, Dan Plesac, Joe Magrane, Sean Casey, Jim Kaat, Al Leiter, Mitch Williams and Dave Valle share personal insights as well as excellent flow during the games. They are not afraid to be critical, when necessary, which is refreshing. For the 2010 season, MLB Network has added some great baseball insiders like Hall of Famer Peter Gammons, Jon Heyman, Tom Verducci, and Ken Rosenthal to give updates on the rumors surrounding trades, signing and other happening with Major League Baseball.

In addition to this year's baseball season stars like Derek Jeter and Albert Pujols, MLB Network pays proper respect for the stars of the past. From World Series highlights to great games, fans can relive memories of their childhood. Keeping the younger fans connected to the great players of the past helps insure the great history of the game. Watching the late great Mark Fidrych shut down the Yankees in 1976 to Don Larsen's World Series perfect game to Mark Whiten's 4 homer game, it is great to watch the performances that make the game fun to experience.In addition, Bob Costas does an excellent job in Studio 42 interviewing the Greats of the Game, like Juan Marichal, Willie Mays, and Bob Gibson.

If you get a chance to get MLB Network on your cable or satellite company and you love baseball like I do, take advantage of it. You will have a hard time changing the channel.
