By: Mike Carter I was asked to make nine bold predictions for the upcoming 2016 season. I’ve thought long and hard and hope to have you scratching your head or turning your eyes going, “what is this guy thinking? The Chicago winter rotted his brain!” So here goes nothing: 1.) The Cubs will not…
Another year another Mariner’s FanFest for my family. We converged onto Seattle Friday night for the Mariners last caravan event. Once again it was held at Alderwood Mall in Lynnwood. This year Charlie Furbush and new M’s closer Steve Cishek attended the event. I love FanFest and plan attending every year regardless of the lineup…

By Guest Writer Dennis Gronau: Born & raised in Portland, Oregon means not many chances to attend Baseball games. At the young age of 7 I started watching WGN & fell in love with the Chicago Cubs. Watching Harry Carey & Steve Stone broadcasting the games to my living room made it that much more…
