Albert Haynesworth Will Stomp Heads in Washington

There was a time when Albert Haynesworth was in danger of going down in history as the guy who stomped on that other guy’s head.  But now Albert doesn’t have to worry about that.  He had one great year in Tennessee, and has successfully parlayed that isolated stretch of excellence into a 7-year, $100 million [...]

Fernando Tatis Suffers Debilitating (Probable) Reading-Related Injury

Reading in bed can be very dangerous…just ask Fernando Tatis, who was scratched from Monday’s Mets intrasquad game after waking up with a sore right palm.  Yeah, I bet it’s happened to you too.  You’re lying there reading some Tolstoy before hitting the sack, not realizing the intense strain you’re putting on your palm from [...]
