It’s Saturday.  It’s time for everyone, especially umpires everywhere, to step back and take a deep breath.  It’s time to get excited, for the 2010 MLB Draft is just days away.  With that happy thought in mind, enjoy the links that follow and do your best to have a great weekend.  […]

The BBSoFS is a weekly article designed to highlight one article from each of our MLB sites on the FanSided.com Sports Network.  The ultimate goal is to increase the exposure of our MLB team sites, highlight some the work of our writers and in doing so pass along some articles that are relevant to the “happenings” and topics of the week that was.  The BBSoFS also affords me the opportunity to announce new writers to our MLB staff and also to announce staff openings that we have.  Typically this will be published on Saturday morning.
