Patrick Teale, PinstripesPlus.com on WFAN with Mike Francesa

Patrick Teale was just on WFAN for a few minutes with Mike Francesa, who mentioned Teale's website PinstripesPlus.com several times. I've never heard Francesa promote a website at all before, so that alone surprised me (he's claimed up until now to not be a computer guy). Patrick is quite involved and knowledgeable about minor league players, especially those of the Yankees, spends a lot of time seeing them in person, goes to the Dominican twice a year, is given access to players by the Yankee organization. Mike asked if income from his website enables him to earn enough to keep traveling around and he said yes.

• On Joba Chamberlain, Teale said he's had a big league fastball/slider for quite awhile, and is better than Edwar Ramirez (his opinion). Francesa mentions he doesn't walk many so is hoping he can be the illusive 8th inning guy.

I checked out the website and of course it's big, bustling, and prosperous-looking. Francesa sounded very enthusiastic about Teale, his website and what he does. I missed the intro to his interview so I don't know how he found out about it.

• Mike Francesa and Chris Russo's show on WFAN is simulcast on the YES Network, and from 3-6P on 1010AM the Beast in Tampa, and WROW in Albany (not sure of the exact times there). The interview is currently listed for download at WFAN.com.
