As the baseball season winds down, here's our list of the best and worst baseball analysts in 2006:
Best
Joe Morgan (ESPN): The no-nonsense Morgan remains the gold standard for baseball game analysts - he's insightful, informative and, at times, controversial.
John Kruk (ESPN): The "Baseball Tonight" studio personality clearly does his homework - he has an impressive ability to dissect each team's strengths and weakness.
Tim McCarver (Fox): There's no denying McCarver's ability to combine baseball wisdom and wit - even if he's often guilty of talking too much.
Steve Phillips (ESPN): A former New York Mets general manager, Phillips is blunt and opinionated.
Lists are fun, aren't they? Here's my list of the best and worst judges of baseball analysts for 2006:
Best
Me (FJM): I am awesome.
Worst
Roger Brown (Cleveland Plain Dealer): Thinks John Kruk does "homework." Thinks Tim McCarver is full of "wit." Has a sentient alien spaceworm living in his brain situated in the exact configuration that would cause someone to write unspeakable untruths about sports broadcasting (conjecture).
dak (FJM): Just kidding, dak!
