In the past, I have subscribed to both Sports Illustrated and ESPN: The Magazine. In addition, I have thumbed through The Sporting News at the dentist's office. However, what does everyone think is the absolute best magazine for baseball coverage? I would love to here some baseball-specific magazines with which other posters (and myself) are not familiar.

The Sporting News used to have the best coverage on the planet, but sadly it is just a shell of it's former self. Honestly, I'd say that these days the best baseball coverage to be had is on the internet. For those of us without laptops or who still just like the portablity and feel of a newspaper or magazine in our hands that's unfortunate.

To answer the original question, the best coverage today is still Sports Weekly, although I admit that the coverage is less than it was a few years ago.
Who is to blame? Honestly, without starting an argument about it, I would say Bud Selig. One of the jobs for the Commissioner is to market the game, and to be sure that the game has proper news coverage. He has dropped the ball, because something is not getting done. The key decision maker are not involved in choosing what to cover. An example would be to establish frank and open communication with magazine editors, and the owners of those magazines. Selig has to do this for several editors to maintain the competition between magazines and publishers. He may have to negotiate with SI to ensure that cover stories appear in a timely manner, and in the proper depth. If he doesn't like that aspect of his job, then he should admit it and resign. Baseball needs to be marketed, not financed.Catfish Hunter, RIP. Mark Fidrych, RIP. Skip Caray, RIP. Tony Gwynn, #19, RIP

This is a coincidence, and the quote was first added to this signature too far back to remember when).
