If you have a few minutes free around 9:30 PM EST tonight, stop by Pro Baseball Central where I’ll be talking about the Phillies and Mets rivalry as well as spring training with Steve Keane and Joe McDonald. The show starts at 9:00 but I’ll be in around 9:30.

UPDATE, 11:10 PM: Just got off the phone — I was on the PBC show for an hour and a half. I certainly didn’t expect to be on that long but I had a blast debating Steve and Joe on the pros and cons of the Phillies and Mets teams, as well as comparing Cole Hamels to Johan Santana, and Brad Lidge to Mariano Rivera. Both sides got their necessary jabs in as well… but it was two on one! So unfair. Where’s Herb Dean when you need him?

We also got a bit into football and hockey, but the majority of the 90 minutes was baseball talk. The three of us made 2009 predictions and we’ll compare ’em in October. Hopefully, they’re the ones eating crow, though I shouldn’t talk after predicting a Rockies-Indians World Series last year.

Once I figure out how to get a direct link to the show, I’ll put it up here. BlogTalkRadio has some clumsy navigation.

Thanks to Steve and Joe for inviting me and giving me a platform for my pithy opinions. I look forward to bragging at the end of the season.
