Rockies club blog launched; Valentine's Day Gift Guide

Fresh off their first World Series appearance, the Colorado Rockies have become the latest Major League club to launch their own front office MLBlog. Rockies Inside Pitch began today with a post from broadcaster Drew Goodman about his experiences at the 2008 Rockies Fantasy Camp.

Meanwhile, the 2008 Valentine's Day Gift Guide launched at the MLB.com Shop. Those same Rockies fans might consider something like a Full Zip Fleece from Antigua Sport. Shop for any MLB club, and for her or for him. Because, yes, you love more than baseball.

More tickets to Major League Baseball games are purchased online today than through the traditional windows. In some cases (ie Boston, the club that swept those Rockies) they have been going fast for 2008. Now's a great time to jump right in there and hit the MLB.com ticketing center to find what's available for Spring Training and the regular season.

It's also a good time to start your own blog. Make your preseason analysis and predictions, and then you'll have a place to chronicle the whole season online.
