What others are saying Business Of Sports

"The GM’s Perspective is integral for true baseball fans that want to know all aspects of the industry, from Major League on-field issues to Minor League Affiliate Stadium Leases. It is one of the most well-done websites that keeps you up to date with what goes on in front and behind the scenes." Jason Takefman

"The GM's Perspective is one of my favorite blogs. Author Devon Teeple's concise and engaging writing style brings to life some fascinating minor league stories that are, for the most part, ignored by the mainstream media. And few in the blogosphere are as qualified as Teeple to analyze the business of baseball. His insight comes from the first-hand experience of playing professionally in the Frontier League. This, in my mind, makes his site essential reading for hardcore baseball fans." Kevin Glew
