Mike Scioscia AL Manager of the Year The vote was similar to our SB Nation vote. The writers had Joe Girardi 3rd and we had Wakamatsu 3rd. The writers didn't have anyone vote for Trey Hillman, so maybe they are smarter after all.

Every AL blog got two ballots, each ballot voted for three managers, etc. Last year, the SBN AL voting matched up perfectly with the official results, which says something about just how much access as a voter really matters.

I wouldn't put myself in the "yes" column yet, but it's a question fans of the Kansas City Royals should explore. A few reasons why, before I get tarred and feathered by readers: • Greinke's value is at a likely all-time high and will likely never get higher. He's 25 years old, has a great contract that's under market and is entering the prime of his career. His season last year was...

A Farewell to Right Arms is a semi-autobiographical novel written by Trey Hillman, first published in 2009. The novel is told through the point of view of a big league manager, an American who wishes he was in fact Japanese citizen, and who might as well be an ambulance driver, given the number of arm injuries to his pitching staff. The title is taken from a poem by 16th century English dramatist George...

I don't want this to be personal, but as a fan, I have to say, I didn't start this fight. Trey Hillman and Dayton Moore have lectured us all season. Their mistakes, we've been repeatedly told, are actually our mistakes . Their failings, we've been repeatedly told, are really just our failings . See, the fans and the media have both a moral and an intellectual shortcoming: we're too impatient and we're...

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – All this Cy Young talk is wearing on Zack Greinke. Even when it comes from the hometown fans, Kansas City's attention-shy ace doesn't want to hear it. "It's pretty annoying, actually. I really don't like it all," he said. Sorry, Zack. When you put up an ERA that looks like a misprint and make big-league hitters slam their helmets in frustration, people are going to

Earlier this season we touched on Dayton Moore's odd proclivity for the playing time bonus . Dating back to the Ross Gload extension, the Royals have included a number of playing time escalators in contracts. Like anything else in a contract, these bonuses can be used in a variety of ways, for the benefit or protection of either party. Three curious things jump out about Dayton's recent use of the...
