I signed up for MLB.tv Mosaic again this week so I can devour as much baseball as possible again this season. This may be a surprise to those of you that have been around the Fridge for awhile, but I recovered from my early sociological issues to enjoy everything that baseball in the 21st Century can offer.
Still, there’s 200 days or so of baseball to come this season and it can be quite intimidating to jump into the deep end of the baseball viewing pool, especially if you tend to stick to your team or only have a passing interest in baseball.
To help you, I have created a list of reasons to watch every Major League Baseball team for the 2008 season. Now I can’t beat the great coverage provided by other outlets, whether it be in scope, depth, or whatever comes to mind. Therefore, I won’t try.
Instead, these lists will contain all the reasons why I want to watch every team play this season. (Yes, every team.) Anyone that’s read all the team lists should be able to pull up the MLB schedule on any day in early June and find reasons to enjoy any contest on the board that night.
You are encouraged to join in the comments to add your own reasons. Tell everyone why your team is worth three and a half hours of their lives on any given day. Make us care and we’ll be there with a tasty beverage and an appreciation for what you feel each time your team takes the field.
Check back every weekday until Opening Day for another team to be listed.
3/10 update: Make that every Mon/Wed/Fri until further notice. I didn’t factor a daily blogging gig into the schedule. Mea culpa.
3/12 update: M/W/F starting 3/17. Taking the weekend to back load pieces. Mea culpa… mas. (Master of languages!)

Out of your fucking mind.
Aww, you noticed!
You are incredibly ambitious.
I do have a fallback position. If I can’t finish in time, I will hand the reins over to James Frey.
Maybe you can get those left in the presidential race to write the ones for their favorite teams. Obama=ChiSox, Hillary=Yankees, etc…
Kucinich for the Mars Baseball Association…
