Grades for ESPN baseball analysts

Gammons i like, Kurkjian is good also, and I find Kruk very entertaining. Olney gets a little too political sometimes, and my god, doesn't anyone feel bad for that poor guy (name escapes me) who they assigned to Bonds-watch the last five years.

Personally, I miss the old early '90s Braves TBS crew. Skip Caray, Pete Van Weiren (sp?), Don Sutton...man, they were the best in my memory...all due respect to Jack Buck and Bob Uecker (I never had the chance to hear them day in, day out)

That man would be Pedro Gomez, and I have grown to hate seeing him because of those several years of reporting on what Barry had for breakfast on July 1st blah blah blah.

He's almost as bad as the Ed Werder Cowboy beat...why are the Cowboys the only team, in any major sport, to have their own ESPN beat reporter?

Obviously, because there's interest.
