  • Draft Results

    I recently did a draft with RotoWire folks. It’s a deep, 14-team, IDP league. Losers buy dinner plus drinks at an expensive steakhouse at season’s end. Last year I was runner-up, but I may have went a little too upside heavy this year, especially considering the format. Here are the results.

  • Starting Pitcher Rankings

    Here’s an updated, midseason version of rankings. This isn’t based on how they’ve played so far, but rather, how I view them from this point going forward. I’m going to be out of town in a wedding this weekend, so I might not be able to defend myself when you bash/heap praise on these rankings…

  • The Scoop

    By Dalton Del Don Watching the New York/Florida game Monday, the Mets announcers were comparing Jose Reyes to Hanley Ramirez. Both concluded they’d “easily” take Reyes over Ramirez. There’s homerism, and then there’s downright delusional. Sure, Ramirez may eventually need to switch positions, but it’s not like Reyes is some gold glover at shortstop. Ramirez…

  • The Scoop

    By Dalton Del Don Facing a Rockies team batting .245 on the road this year (third worst in baseball), Homer Bailey allowed a ludicrous 15 hits over 4.2 innings Saturday. He now sports a 39:41 K:BB ratio over 74.1 big league innings. Depending on format, of course, Bailey might be worth cutting bait even in…

    Here’s a scouting report on future Cy Young winner Michel Inoa. The folks over at Fantasy Phenoms had me on as a guest on blog talk radio, and here’s a link to the podcast. This guy is the man. I’m confused. Where do I apply this product? If anything, this high school football coach is…

  • The Unpredictability of Pitching

    I wrote an article over at Baseball Prospectus on the topic, check it out.

  • The Scoop

    By Dalton Del Don Howie Kendrick spits in the face of logic, as he currently sports a .347 batting average despite a 37:5 K:BB ratio. Of course, his .405 BABIP is the highest in baseball, but he’s got a career mark of .358 in that department, so this isn’t out of nowhere. His 22.4 LD%…

  • The Scoop

    By Dalton Del Don I didn’t aggressively pursue Chad Billingsley in drafts this year because I felt his command left him still a ways off from dominance, but after another 3.5 months of seasoning, it’s time to start treating him as an elite starter. His control still comes and goes, but Billingsley’s 9.81 K/9 IP…
