One of the nice things about having a whole network of baseball sites is that occasionally we get to pretend we're real writers and collaborate on projects with one another. Now that the baseball season is over, and before everyone's focus turns to the free agent...

by Nam Y. Huh - AP Randy Wells had a fine rookie year and finished sixth in SBN rookie balloting. View full size photo » Count me as one of those surprised at the SBN Rookie of the Year balloting. Neither J.A. Happ nor Chris Coghlan , the two players named at the top of the BCB ballots, won. Tommy Hanson is a deserving recipient, no doubt, but I was sure that Happ was going to win.

Yesterday we posted the voting in our SB Nation Manager of the Year , today it is the Rookie of the Year. A much more interesting vote, the one to get the most first place votes didn't finish first because a number of us left him off our ballot. There was no clear cut RoY this year which made the voting that much harder. k Player Team 1st 2nd 3rd Pts 1 Elvis Andrus Texas Rangers 6 9 6 63 2 Andrew Bailey...

Baseball Digest Daily (Free subscription) | 11/05/2009

First off, congratulations to the Yankees. I’m not a Yankee hater, due to their tradition mainly. I’m not big on the fact that they spent so much and won, but when you look at how often they spent a ton and lost, you can see that’s not completely the reasoning. Besides, it’s been nine years. While that’s not that long for a lot of teams, it does mean that there’s...

Yet Another Modest Proposal

McCovey Chronicles (Free subscription) | 10/29/2009

It's silly season for baseball. Without any games of note, the idle mind turns to rosterbation. As the offseason progresses, it becomes more complex and convoluted. It moves from "sign six players for a combined $100B," to a four-way deal that uses obscure passages from the collective bargaining agreement to get Hanley Ramirez for Dan Runzler and 19th-century promissory notes from the Bank...
