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...

First, some briefs on yesterday's roster moves: It's interesting to see the Brad Thompson perception gap—the RotoWorld box in the sidebar thinks he'll have no problem finding a job, even as a fifth starter; the Baseball Primer thread is remarkably positive, for BTF. But I think the average VEBer wrote off the artist occasionally known as WonderBrad a long time ago. I'll always think of him as...

I have to be brief here, because even as the VEB counter starts registering today's hits I am sitting in an airport in Springfield, waiting to go to Chicago, waiting to go to Japan.

Ever since the Red Sox traded Nomar Garciaparra to the Cubs at the 2004 trade deadline, they've been looking for a long-term solution at shortstop. They've gone the big name free agent route with Edgar Renteria and Julio Lugo, tried the scrap heap approach with Nick Green, and gave a youngster like Jed Lowrie a shot as well. In total, they've used 19 different shortstops since the Nomar deal, including...

Matt Holliday: The outfielder who famously flubbed a fly-ball in game two of the NLDS is one the Cardinals’ biggest offseason priorities. (The others include Mark DeRosa, and to a lesser extent, Julio Lugo, and Joel Pineiro.) When asked about whether or not Holliday wanted to return, the free agent said, “Awww … I’m not [...]

It was a pretty dull opening day to this anticlimactic virtually starless postseason, but four ex-Devil Rays were in action. The X-Ray star who burned brightest was Trever Miller , who I mistakenly left out of Fifteen Faces Of October: The DRT Playoff Preview . With the bases loaded and two outs in the bottom of the 6th, and the Cardinals trailing the Dodgers 5-2, the old hillbilly kept his team in...

It’s been a busy week for me, with having to drive a hour and a half to an audit every morning. (Usual commute to the office–8 minutes.) So I’ve not had the chance to finish up the regular season and look at tonight’s start of the NLDS. Let me see if I can’t do that extremely quickly. Saturday: 5-4 Loss Hero: Brendan Ryan . Three for three, scored twice, drove in run....

At long last, the second season is upon us. St Louis will play the Dodgers in the NLDS. Winner gets the winner of Philadelphia/Colorado. Loser thinks of ‘what might have been’. Los Angeles has been the best team in the National League this season. St Louis turned a fantastic run from late July through early September into a National League Central Crown. End of the Year Snapshot St Louis:...

While everybody knows about Albert Pujols, Matt Holliday, and Manny Ramirez, what about the rest of the bats? Starters To begin, let's take a look at the probable starters and do a position by position breakdown. Catcher Last year, this would have been a win for the Dodgers, but Martin's immense struggles...
