Appearances and Such
In addition to my work here at Ducksnorts, I am a regular contributor to Baseball Digest Daily and various other online publications (including a daily gig at Knuckle Curve from September 2006 to April 2008). I also have written two books, contributed to others, and appeared on radio and television programs.
