A hearty congrats goes out to Tim Lincecum for winning his second straight Cy Young Award. What's fascinating is that Adam Wainwright actually received more 1st place votes than Tim did, and the last NL pitcher to win the CYA without the most 1st place votes was 1998 when Tom Glavine ...

Sorry, but I don't agree with the decision for the AL Manager of the Year. I don't think he did anything all that interesting or special. Joe Girardi took a team from not in the playoff one year to World Series Champs with the best record in baseball the next. He did this with ...

http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=4663979 Congrats to Zack! He posted amazing numbers and while the Yankees fan in me would have loved to see CC win the award, he's already got one and I'm sure he'll get another at some point in his career with us. "His record for the ...

So here we are. All the marbles. Last team standing wins. It's been fun doing this competition the last few days and I hope that everyone who has been reading this blog has been enjoying it as well. Maybe I'll start running sims for different teams....we could make a ...

That was a thrilling but as you know.....only two teams could advance. Who would they be? The vaunted 1939 team, starring Joltin' Joe? Maybe two of the dynasty teams? Potentially even the current group of champions, led by Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez. ...

More congrats are in order, as the Yankees have a couple more awards to end to their end-of-the-year trophy case. Mark Teixeira and Derek Jeter are recipients of this year's Silver Slugger Awards for 1B and SS, respectively. This was Mark's 3rd SS award and Derek's 4th. ...

Two Cardinals, a pair of Dodgers and a couple Phillies. I'm actually shocked Pujols didn't get one, but I don't know much about the NL, I'm afraid to say. We also had four 1st time winners, so congrats to them. The next awards due to be announced are the Silver Slugger Awards ...

Alright folks, it's time for the tournament to begin! I decided to take Jason's advice and restructure the seedings a little bit, so you won't see the strongest teams taking on the weakest teams each and every time - I have a few instances of two WS losing teams facing off, and a couple ...

Derek Jeter and Mark Teixeira win AL Gold Gloves Congrats! This was Mark's 3rd GG and Derek's 4th. I would have liked to see Robbie and/or Alex get one as well, because I thought their defense was pretty damn good this year but Polanco and Longoria were no less deserving. ...

For starters, here are the rules: 1. Obviously there are more than 27 teams represented here. Because I needed 32 teams to make everything even out, I added five Yankees teams that LOST the World Series to the overall list. I placed them at the bottom of the bracket, as they lost ...

I got the idea for this from an ESPN article [I know, I know.....they wrote something good] . They ranked all 27 Yankees World Championship teams from strongest to weakest, using win/loss record, run differential and playoff success. If you're so inclined, there's an alternative New ...

For the purposes of this post (and reality), the decade is defined as 2000-2009. I say that because 2000 is certainly not part of the 90s. The 21st century started in 2001, but the 00s decade started in 2000. So let's get that out of the way now before someone chooses to ...

What a season! Who knew when I began blogging the season in March-April that by November we'd be World Champions. You wanted it, you hoped for it, you knew it was never NOT a possibility, but at the same time you knew there's 29 other teams who want it too....including the defending ...
