Pronk Needs You!

Every once in a while, it’s nice to use that expensive undergraduate degree in writing from a fine private institution of higher learning for the forces of good instead of what I usually do around these parts, which is to promote the forces of snarkiness.  I am proud to announce the publication of the Indians Annual 2009 from Maple Street Press and even more proud to announce that I am a contributor to the magazine.

This publication was put together by Jay Levin of the Let’s Go Tribe blog where I often hang out.  It features serious analysis of not only the big league club, but also key prospects within the Indians system.  Some of the other features:

• A remembrance of Herb Score by Joe Posnanski
• Player profiles and statistics
• A feature article on Pronk
• An extensive interview with Assistant GM Chris Antonetti
• Other serious articles written by people who actually write about baseball for a living

The magazine ships February 16, and should hit newsstands on March 3.  So, be the first on your block to order one.  Or two.  Or 37.  Or don’t – I’ve already blown the check I’m going to receive on my Christmas iPod, so I’m good either way.
