He's a top notch reporter with contacts out the wazoo...I wish he was commissioner instead of Bud-light

Man, that stinks. I really enjoy hearing what he has to say, because like TG said he has a ****load of contacts in every front office in the league. Hope he is able to fully recover!!

And he likes Pearl Jam.

Here's hoping he has a full recovery.

Peter has so many contacts because he is a 1st rate reporter. Doesnt talk bad about anyone, doesnt reveal his sources and he doesnt just make stuff up. I wish Gammons well, his passion and knowledge of the game is truly special. Gammons, Reynolds and Kruk are just awesome together.

Peter Gammons knows more about baseball than anyone should know about anything.

That is so true. Sometimes he knows so much that he doesnt know what to do. Then once he gets started it is hard to slow him down. But those three on baseball tonight and you could Joe Morgan in there are just so knowledgable about the sport that it isnt even funny.

True, but Gammons is a reporter, not some who is in the arena. Remember, the guys that play are the ones that deserve the credit. GM's are the ones who take the risks, Gammons just is an observer. I like Gammons but he is too close to the Red Sox for my liking. Journalists shouldn't bet that involved with one team.
