Daily Farm Report - 7/23/08
Published 48 hours ago by roarke at Future Redbirds
I sent an email to Will Carroll of the Baseball Prospectus to ask him for his take on the Colby Rasmus knee injury news. Here is his response: It’s the same thing [Juan] Pierre had, so long term is not a concern. G1 is a good sign. So that’s comforting, coming from an injury expert. Here is Goold’s reporting of the injury for the Post-Dispatch. It sounds like we dodged a bullet, but I feel bad for Rasmus that he will miss the Olympics - it would have been a great honor for ...

Marlins pursuing Brian Fuentes?
Published 2 days ago by craig at FishStripes: Front Page Posts
... as the Blue Jays' Gregg Zaun or Reds' Paul Bako, sources say. The Marlins, who are far more focused on acquiring bullpen help than adding a veteran catcher, are expressing interest in all of the top available relievers, according to major-league sources. If Treanor can return to the team anytime soon, I agree the Marlins needing a catcher isn't paramount. Rosenthal isn't the only one reporting this:  Will Carroll of Baseball Prospectus is saying it also. The Marlins ...

... four months, 99 games, and 418 poorly divvied up plate appearances to come to that same conclusion. Of course, correctly predicting that Gomez would be woefully ill-suited to hit atop the lineup--and spending four months campaigning for a switch--hardly qualifies as genius on my part. In fact, it should have been obvious to anyone focusing on his on-field performance and minor-league track record rather than getting caught up in his speed and potential. Baseball Prospectus projected Gomez to hit .249/.301/.361 this season. Baseball Think Factory ...

Bronx Banter: The Big Hurt
Published 3 days ago at Baseball Toaster
[image] It's free week over at Baseball Prospectus , where Will Carroll weighs in on Jorge Posada's predicament : Posada does not have a full-thickness tear (or rupture,) but according to sources there was significant damage in at least two of the four muscles, though there will be another set of images taken on Tuesday to gauge whether playing for the past few weeks has aggravated the issue. Most of the damage was focused in the subscapularis and was described as "moderate," a diagnosis that was agreed on by Andrews, David Altchek, and Yankees team physician Stuart ...

Where they stand
Published 9 days ago at Replacement Level Yankees Weblog
Wednesday, July 16, 2008 Where they stand Photobucket Photobucket B-Pro gives the Yankees a little worse than a 9% shot at the playoffs with a 6.7% chance at the WC (9.1% PECOTA adjusted). The Red Sox average 95.3 wins, the Rays, 93.1, and the Yankees, 83.8. Should Tampa Bay continue to play as they are, I can see where the division leader ends up with 96 wins or less. Winning 97 games likely means a playoff spot. Will the Yankees win 47 more games for a possible playoff spot? Going 47-20 over their final 67 games is really asking a lot. The more prominent question is ...

AL Rookie of the Year–Ellsbury Versus Longoria

... However there are a few variables that are well suited to this exact comparison, namely the Baseball Prospectus metrics known as WARP and VORP.   WARP is a measure of the number of wins above a replacement level player that the given player has produced, as measured by the number of runs created. That is a simplistic summary, so if you want more info check out Baseball Prospectus. The WARP formula includes both offensive and defensive contributions. ...

An Open Letter To ESPN
Published 22 days ago by Jason at The 3rd String Safety
Dear Mr. Big Wig, Do you like sports? I’d hope you do, considering you run a sports network and all. I love sports. You know what I love also? Arguing about sports (and you can listen to me do just that on 4th Down!) The sports realm provide so many opportunities for great arguments.  Who’s better Brady or Manning? Should Joba Chamberlain be a starter?  And now most recently, Are the Tampa Bay (Devil) Rays legit? Of course I’d assume you’d agree with me that sports arguments are entertaining, considering the plethora of argument based television on ESPN.  We have First and Ten (which is ...

Furcal Might Need Surgery On His Back
Published 23 days ago by kensai (noreply@blogger.com) at Fire Ned Colletti Now
Will Carroll of Baseball Prospectus speculates that surgery is now an option for Furcal. "Just when it seemed like Furcal was getting close to returning, he suffered a setback. His back seized up again after activity, precisely the wrong thing to have happen at this stage in his recovery. The trouble is that his disc problem hasn't responded well to the normal conservative therapies, and it's at this point that surgery usually becomes an option. We'll see if that's where they'll head next, though sources tell me they'll take at least one more run at this type of ...

Injury Scout Offering a Free Trial, or Why is Most Fantasy Injury News Subscription-Based?

Injury Scout is now offering a free seven-day trial of its site. That means you get unlimited access to its reports on all NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL, and NCAA teams, along with depth charts. Normally, I would not mention something like this, but I thought it was interesting that Injury Scout was the only fantasy injury site offering a free trial. Baseball Injury Report, RotoWire, Football Injuries, and Baseball Prospectus all charge for their fantasy injury news and do not even offer a free-to-try option. Why? Is it because injury ...
