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...

For what seems like months now, the concept of achieving better run prevention via the power of defense has been stuffed down your collective throats. Knowledgable fans are embracing it, sportswriters are begrudgingly recognizing it -- some more quickly than others, of course -- and front offices have taken steps to neutralize any market inefficiencies that might have left it undervalued. Baseball,...

Two quick things: first, I haven't been terribly lucid over the last few days, so thanks for bearing with me (although some actually seem to prefer reading my more unintelligible musings), and second ... well, commissioner Bud Selig is going to have a hard time sticking by his "no expansion of instant replay" posture when his umpires are botching the most simplistic of calls during the most...

Thanks to David Brown for the much-appreciated pinch-hitting duties the last few days ... and no thanks to Joe Torre for leaving Clayton Kershaw hanging out to dry and decreasing the chances of that ratings-hogging Yankees-Dodgers World Series showdown that we all secretly want to see: ● Michael Young on Rudy Jaramillo's departure: "It's not Rudy's fault somebody goes up and swings at the...

The addition of Jed Lowrie (over Nick Green) to the ALDS roster comes as no surprise, but it was a little strange to hear Gil Velazquez was chosen over Chris Woodward to be on call, if needed. The Red Sox would love to have Rocco Baldelli available to face lefties Scott Kazmir and Joe Saunders in Games 3 and 4, but his status (left hip flexor) is still up in the air. Rosters are not due until 1 PM...

Early Tuesday morning, Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News constructed a thoughtful, passionate and and well-reasoned argument for the retention of long-time -- and unsigned -- hitting instructor Rudy Jaramillo, who has found himself the target of persistent criticism after helming the Texas Rangers' first sub-800-run offense since 1992. Among the reasons cited by Grant as to why the lineup sputtered...
