I’m working on a formula for this but I don’t have one yet so I’m just going to look at the numbers and take a guess. Lets start with tonight’s Twins vs. White Sox game.

Twins vs. White Sox This is one game so it is even more of a crapshoot than [...]
AL
Continue Reading → MVP: Kevin Youkilis- He is having a great year. He has a very good batting average and his 7th in the league in Woba. He has put up very good numbers all across the board and has been the best player for the Red Sox this year. His OBP is nearing 400 [...]
I have to do this, and I have to beat ESPN, so here goes….

MVP – Alex Rodriguez – Alex Rodriguez was the best hitter in the American League this year. It’s just that simple. Rodriguez lead the league in OPS among batters with at least 500 plate appearances, and [...]
Let me first start out with this: I do not put any stock in wins. No one who uses sabermetrics does. They just don’t mean anything. But guess what, the hall of fame voters do.
Continue Reading → Mike Mussina is obviously a hall of fame caliber pitcher. With a better K/BB rate than Greg Maddux [...]
Yankees closer Mariano Rivera is considering shoulder surgery on what is describe as a “minor injury” by Yankees manager Joe Girardi. Although this may seem like a problem for Rivera owners who are looking to keep him (like me) it really isn’t. Rivera is old, but he also has an extremely consistant track [...]
Continue Reading → Sports broadcaster, journalists, and fans like to give out end of season awards. They like to figure out who was the best at every little thing. Sometimes these awards can be good. For example a major league GM sitting to create a big board of free agents could make his job [...]
This isn’t fantasy baseball related, however it is definitly a huge topic right now in baseball. Last night the New York Yankees played their final home game of the 2008 regular season (ok, fine, 2008 season) in the final season at the house that Ruth built, and the last (Major League Baseball) game [...]
Continue Reading → Most people know not to trust ESPN for fantasy baseball. Ever. I actually don’t hate Matthew Berry at all. Contrary to popular opinion, he’s pretty smart and he obviously relies on numbers, not his gut instincts. However the numbers that the relies on aren’t necessarily the most advanced, and Bill James only knows how to fix [...]
Continue Reading → Seattle starting pitcher Erik Bedard, who hasn’t pitched since July with a shoulder injury, has decided to undergo exploratory surgery and miss the remainder of 2008 (like it matters, the M’s were out of it around the time the season started). But Bedard has been one of the best pitchers in the big leagues [...]
Although we have always encouraged questions and comments to be emailed to us we have been writing about what we want to write about. That doesn’t help our readers as much as it could. So starting this week we will be running weekly mailbags, answering questions and covering topics Fantasy Bullpen reader’s [...]
