Hmmm. Can't say I've read anything from him since he left BP, but my impression of him was that he was one of the better ESPN baseball folks.

- I'll trash any number of ESPN folks, but I still think Gammons is among the best baseball folks in the biz. (nm) - musubi Mar 9, 11:38 6
  - He lost me when he didn't ask the question every person alive wanted to ask ARod immediately after he said he used. - Will Hunting Mar 9, 11:41 4
    - He is what he is. If you're looking to him for hard hitting questions, you're looking at the wrong person. - musubi Mar 9, 11:44 2
      - ...as long as the info is not negative in any way, shape for form. nm -- nm - groiny Mar 9, 11:46 1
        
        *shrug* To each their own. I still like Gammons for what he is. - musubi Mar 9, 11:49
    - yeah, it is like he checks with the agent first to make sure he asks allowed questions. nm -- nm - groiny Mar 9, 11:43
  - he spends too much time sucking players dicks. - groiny Mar 9, 11:39
When he first got to ESPN, he correctly predicted exactly one out of seven playoff series that year. That's been about his overall track record. - David Mar 9, 11:37 1
- *shrug* I haven't read enough to say, but I do remember some of the stuff he did at BP was very good. (nm) - musubi Mar 9, 11:39
