This Week in Baseball Writing

[The Tax Man]

For the last month and half, on Thursdays sonsofsamhorn.com has been publishing a weekly collection of links to our favorite baseball articles from around the internet. This week we highlight articles about Julio Franco, blackout restrictions, unwritten rules of baseball, David Ross, and the Royals' closer situation. If you've got some time to kill (and you've already read every single article on our site!) then please give these a read.
