ESPN HeadlinesThe NCAA Baseball Tournament gets underway today, so here’s a preview of each of the 16 regionals. I’m keeping this brief, as I don’t feel like writing a novel on this. But rest assured, these are not wild guesses. I’ve done pretty well in this tourney the last couple of years, and I’m confident of [...]
What a difference a year makes. The Tampa Bay Rays were one of the truly great stories in 2008. All those years of inept decision making upstairs and uninspired play on the field melted away as the Rays shocked the sports world with their first titles of any kind and a trip to the World [...]
It’s official. The one and only Matt Wieters will be making his big league debut on Friday night when the Orioles play host to the Tigers. Wieters has been garnering all kinds of attention ever since being drafted fifth overall in 2007. If he lives up to the hype, which he has an excellent chance [...]
Two weeks ago I wrote about the importance of studying on-base percentage when evaluating baseball offenses. I’m constantly surprised at how many people bet on bad offenses to score runs, or bet against teams with good offenses hoping they won’t score much that day. If you missed that article, I hope you’ll check the archives [...]
Let’s wrap up the first quarter All-Flop team with the pitchers. These aren’t necessarily the guys having the worst seasons, but they’re the ones that I feel failed to live up to expectations by the widest margin. Also, while it may not be very benevolent on my part, I don’t cut any slack for injuries. [...]
We’re at the quarter pole of the 2009 baseball season, so I thought I’d take a look at the first edition of this year’s Anything But All-Star Team. These are the guys who are, for whatever reason, dramatically underachieving. I’ll do the position players today and examine the pitchers tomorrow. Catcher: Geovanny Soto, Cubs. Health [...]
The Los Angeles Dodgers have the best record in all of baseball. They’re 28-13 following the Tuesday night win over the Mets, and it certainly looks as though they’ve recovered nicely from the initial shock that they appeared to suffer when the stunning suspension of Manny Ramirez was announced. Juan Pierre obviously has a far [...]
If someone had told me that there would be as many seven serious prospects recalled from the minors over just the last handful of days, I’d have bet big money that David Price, Matt Wieters or Clay Buchholz would surely have been on the list. But Price, Wieters and Buchholz are still on the farm. [...]
Talk about parity. The 2009 season is less than 40 games old, yet we’re already seeing all kinds of congestion in all but one of the game’s six divisions. Just two teams are above .600, while five are languishing below .400. The one early runaway is in the NL West, where the Dodgers already own [...]
Anytime there’s an athlete in his mid-40’s still performing at a high level in a big league team sport, it’s pretty big news. When that player also happens to be among the most respected individuals in his chosen field of endeavor, the story gets even better. Jamie Moyer certainly fit that bill coming into this [...]
