I created UZR projections for the 2010 season and the values are available on a Google Documents Spreadsheet . I got 4 years worth of UZR numbers from Fangraphs. Then I did a 5-4-3-2 yearly weighting regressed to 125 games with a -0.7UZR aging factor ( article where the math is explained ). I selected for the worksheet any players that played in at least 63 games at the position over the last 4 years....

Bet #1 — Chances Brad Hawpe will be a Rockie on Opening Day 2010 Over/Under – 96% With an abundance of left-handed hitters, there has been speculation that Hawpe would likely be dealt. That, however, would only be the case if the Rockies felt they received a solid return, such as the Matt Holliday trade last off-season.

This was moderately surprising to me . Outfielders Matt Kemp and Andre Ethier received honors Thursday as the best hitters at their positions, the first year since 1995 (Mike Piazza and Eric Karros) that the Dodgers had a pair of winners and the first time they've had two outfielders selected in the same season. It was the first such honor for each player. My thoughts later, but my first impression...

Patrick Saunders of the Denver Post has the Rockies hot stove chatter; let's take a look. GM Dan O'Dowd explained that, "There is a difference between listening and attempting to move a player." Brad Hawpe falls squarely into the "listening" category. New contracts for O'Dowd and manager Jim Tracy are still pending a few small details. The Rockies are trying to trade Garrett Atkins....

Joel Sherman of The NY Post has a slew of Rockies' rumors from the GM meetings, so let's recap... The Rockies are willing to listen to trade offers for outfielder Brad Hawpe. Just last month, GM Dan O'Dowd said "We have no desire to move [Hawpe] at all." The team's top priority at the moment is to retain reliever Rafael Betancourt, who they've already approached about a multi-year deal. Yorvit...

Baseball players can make contributions in a number of different ways, the most obvious and talked-about of which is how they do at the plate. Defense, position, and baserunning tend to be brushed off as secondary concerns. What follows are the top and bottom 15 in the sum of these latter three values, as determined by UZR, Fangraphs' position adjustment, and Baseball Prospectus' EQBRR. Note that catchers...
