Jim Caple is a former columnist and senior writer for ESPN.com.[1] He has worked previously with the Seattle Post-Intelligencer and the St. Paul Pioneer Press.

Caple attended R.A. Long High School in Longview, Washington.[2][3] He graduated from the University of Washington in Seattle, where he reported for and later became an editor of the school newspaper, "The Daily".[4][5]

Caple has written a book The Devil Wears Pinstripes (ISBN 0-452-28598-4) which, according to Amazon.com, "takes on the rabid fans of baseball's twenty-six-time World Champions, and offers a decidedly different slant on the New York Yankees—the losers of thirteen World Series."
