The Crawfish Boxes (Free subscription) | yesterday
The Astros left Koby Clemens and Drew Locke, among others, unprotected in the Rule 5 draft. That seems like a risk to me. Hopefully, Ed Wade is right when he says he put himself in the place of the other GMs and felt that they would not be players who could be kept on a ML roster for a full season. But the Astros reached that same conclusion regarding a young pitcher named Johan Santana and he was...

Leslie Monteiro, in a post to her blog Twins Killings, feels that the trade that sent Johan Santana to the Mets in exchange for Carlos Gomez, Delois Guerra, Philip Humber, and Kevin Mulvey was a bust for the Twins. ...it’s hard to argue with that sentiment because they now have no players at the major league [...]

The Dodger signed Wolf for $5 Million plus incentives and he produced a 3.0 WAR ($13.6MM) performance. Now, coming...

Over the past three winters we’ve seen big name starting pitchers on the trade block. The Twins made clear their intentions to trade Johan Santana in the winter of 2007-2008. Last year, Jake Peavy dominated headlines for months, as the Padres fruitlessly dangled him in November. This year it’s Roy Halladay. Unsurprisingly, the Yankees have [...] Post from: River Ave. Blues A New York Yankees...

In a post to his blog for the New York Times, Ben Shpigel quotes ‘Captain Obvious,’ and says this off season the Mets hope to acquire another slugger and add a No. 2 starter behind Johan Santana. Shpigel sees 22–year-old 1B Ike Davis as being on a path similar David Wright, who was promoted to Double-A in 2003, then hit [...]

For Internet baseball writers, cries of apathy have drowned out the usual complaining about the BBWAA Awards voting. What used to be "here's why Johan Santana was a much better choice for the Cy than Bartolo Colon " has become "holy crap I couldn't care less who wins the Cy Young Award". I touched on this awhile back but there is a significant reason why people should still care...

It's given, I presume, to the rookie-eligible player who had the most valuable season in each league.

Athletes have been known be implored to attend Bar Mitzvahs. Sometimes it's because a particular athlete is Jewish; there's a great bit in a movie called Keeping Up With The Steins about an extraordinarily competitive L.A. family trying to get then-Dodger Shawn Green to show up at their son's affair. Sometimes it's because the fan issuing the invite thinks an athlete is Jewish — as was the commonly...
