Sometimes during the off-season and especially in the doldrums of winter in the Midwest, things get a bit slow. With that in mind, we have decided check out others blogs around the National League on Tuesdays and American League on Thursdays. What better place to find those than the Baseball Bloggers Alliance webpage. We are a proud member of the BBA and will use some of our fellow members blogs to let you know what they are saying with our “Whatchu Talkin’ bout” weekly series.

That is a look around the National League on this Tuesday. Thursday we will snoop around the American League and check out the Baseball Bloggers Alliance blogs and what they had to write about.

If you like this concept of looking around let me know so it give me direction until Opening Day.
