    That website is hideous

    The Marlins just traded Maybin... maybe they're hoping to get Rasmus form the Cards?

    Roy Halladay is clearly going to win the Cy Young award, but I'm curious to see how close Adam Wainwright will be. While Halladay's numbers are better, their numbers are nearly identical Halladay: 21-10 2.44 ERA 250IP 219 K 1.04 WHIP 165 ERA+ Wainwright: 20-11 2.42 ERA 230IP 213 K 1.05 WHIP 161 ERA+

    Not really news, but Rotoworld posted it, so I figured it could be posted here as well

    http://sports.espn.go.com/new-york/mlb/news/story?id=5792180 Probably not gonna get traded, but was interesting nonetheless.

    Ummm, why? He's a badass out there. I don't know anything aobut their fielding prowess, but this is what Rob Neyer had to say about the subjects...

    This is a little off-topic, but does anyone know if there's ever been two full-time position players with at least 500PA to hit under .200 in the same season? Pena and Reynolds did it this year

    did you expect someone else? Gotta love the comment next to Jeter's name in the list of this year's Gold Glove winners at the top of Baseball-Reference.com. And the stat that it links to showing that Jeter was the worst defensive shortstop in the American League by an absurdly large margin

    Let's play a game called "Who's managerial section on their Wikipedia biography is more impressive?"...... vs. SRSLY. 25 years experience vs. 4 years experience.

    Malarkey. No way we land Lee

    Wasn't Colorado trying to get him during the season? I wonder how many homers he could hit if he's put in that kind of environment

    It was nothing special. I was kind of worried to watch it since usually there's always one employee who is a joke and everything looks like its in shambles. There was nothing really inherently wrong. The employees weren't miserable, the working conditions weren't all that ridiculous, and there weren't many bad things said about the team or the company. All that happened was they gave a hot dog vendor employee of the year, they gave the crew walkies, improved crew clubhouse, added a trailer to the parking lots with heat and air, added a crew family day, and that's about it in terms of improving the company. In terms of personal stuff, they gave one guy an offseason internship, paid for one guys college classes, sent one dude's daughter to swim lessons and Northwestern, and let the employee of the year throw out the first pitch w/ 4 high priced tickets. It was boring. No real drama, no real "Holy crap I can't believe we let these people work in these conditions" type situations. Everyone there did their job well, and in the end they made it to where they could do it more efficiently. Nothing too interesting.

    I like Scott, and while he's extremely streaky, he hits like an MVP when he's on his game. He'd probably be cheap enough because of his age and subpar defense, so he'd be a nice stopgap if we chose to get a 1B at the trade deadline or make a splash on the FA market next season. I'd prefer a little more consistency in a new 1B, but Scott wouldn't be a bad person to have

    If we had to get a middling starting pitcher, what kind of middling starting pitcher would we prefer? One who may almost assuredly get injured but might provide potentially high upside (Ben Sheets, Justin Duchscherer, Brandon Webb, etc) or one who will give you close to a full season of "meh" pitching (Kevin Millwood, Jake Westbrook, Noah Lowry, etc)

    Maybe Hendry is obsessed with the success of the Giants and he's going for that scrappy, castaway roster of flunkies and exiles from other teams hoping we'll strike gold. Let's trade for John McDonald!

    If being a manager in the minors for 4 years is standard due diligence for being a major league manager, Mike Quade must be the Rolls Royce of managers.

    The title led me to believe that Ramirez was declining a player option to return to the team and instead become a free agent, though it's still 100% accurate. :-)
