James Loney Without context, his .281/.357/.399/.756 line with a .332 wOBA makes him about a league average hitter. Unfortunately, Loney plays a position where being league average also means being bottom of the barrel. Loney ranked a horrid 23rd in the majors in wOBA among first basemen who qualified at the position, and there's no other way to describe that other than terrible. Perhaps the saddest...
More photos » by Rob Carr - AP The 2010 Dodger offense figures to be very similar to the 2009 offense. Browse more photos » One of the ways to ease the pain of a baseball-less offseason is the annual Bill James Handbook . The 2010 version will be released on November 1, 2010, but the fine folks at ACTA Sports provided us with an early look at the player projections. Here's a look at the...
Pitching Stars Hong Chih Kuo He's one of the few arm in the vaunted Dodgers bullpen that actually came through in this series. He threw four innings and allowed a mere two hits and one run. Kuo struck out six and walked none. He did give up a homer in Game 5, but it was essentially meaningless. Like i've said about him many times before, when he's healthy, he's arguably the best reliever in the entire...
The latest from SI's Jon Heyman... Heyman, like many writers, believes the Dodgers need a #1 starter. He says Dodgers people "aren't overly optimistic" about snagging Roy Halladay or John Lackey, however. Heyman believes the Dodgers should consider trading one or all of James Loney, Russell Martin, and Chad Billingsley. Billingsley was ineffective in July and September, but the 25-year-old...

ANAHEIM, Calif. — After an off day, the Yankees will try to close out the Angels with a Game 5 win in the American League Championship Series tonight at Angel Stadium. New York has a commanding 3-games-to-1 advantage following Tuesday night's 10-1 victory in Anaheim. The Yanks will send out A.J. Burnett against John Lackey. A Yankee victory would mean their 40th American League pennant. Last...
Four Phillies regulars hit for an OPS of 1.000 or better: Ryan Howard (1.457), Shane Victorino (1.320), Carlos Ruiz (1.271), and Jayson Werth (1.022). James Loney (1.127) was the only Dodger to cross that threshold. The Phillies had 19 extra-base hits in the series to the Dodgers’ 9. 50% of the Phillies’ XBH were home runs [...]

Vicente Padilla couldn't get it done twice in the same series; no shame in that, but after handing out consecutive two-out free passes to Chase Utley and Ryan Howard, Jayson Werth's three-run jack sealed the Dodgers' fate. The closest they got to a look at the game was when James Loney belted the Dodgers' second solo shot of the game (the first was Andre Ethier's in the first) in the top of the second,...
Ryan Howard named NLCS MVP It was a night that was destined to be one filled with celebration and it did not take too long for the party to get started. It was a night of many runs coming across the plate, but on Wednesday night the Phillies had ten cross and the Dodgers only had four. The Phillies clinched their second straight National League pennant and now await the winner of the American League...

Finding a people’s champion among the four teams fighting for baseball’s world championship is a tough assignment. Last year the Tampa Bay Rays won the honor without a contest. This year there is nothing even close to a small market team. All four teams are among the top ten in salaries, so no one can deck themselves out as “Underdog.” The Phillies’ payroll of $113 million...
Jimmy Rollins was the hero on this night (AP Photo) Jimmy Rollins hits walk off hit to give Phillies 3-1 lead in series There were reports of Phillies fans leaving early last night. Why?
