The Curious Case of Derrek Lee
Published 3/12/2009 by Mike D. at Hire Jim Essian
... Lee managed to come back in June and eventually get over 100 at bats for the season. Nobody expected his power to return so soon after breaking his wrist and it didn’t. For Cub fans, this was reminiscent of another star player whose power was still on the shelf even after he came off it. What was frustrating here was that in the following season, 2007, Lee’s power was still lagging. While his slugging percentage of .513 was actually higher than in any of his seasons from 2000-2004 (and his OPS of .913 ranked only second to the ...

... batting average (he hit .358 for his career). Still, his .219 ISO beats Kent's .210 career mark. The real differential between their respective career ISO numbers is even more drastic, as the league ISO was much higher during Kent's career than Hornsby's. To sum, there is simply no case whatsoever that Kent was a better power hitter than Rogers Hornsby. He hit more home runs, but so what? Here is the next Jenkins remark that caught my eye. ...and if Ryne Sandberg makes the Hall (dubious choice in my mind), then Kent certainly ...

The Hall of Fame Case for Ron Santo (Part 3 of 3)

... While full split information is not available for a lot of players, we know relatively more about home run splits. There are plenty of players in the Hall of Fame who benefited significantly from a home field advantage. On the Cubs, this would include Ernie Banks (290 at home, 222 on the road), Billy Williams (245 at home, 181 on the road) and Ryne Sandberg (164 at home, 118 on the road). There are of course non-Cubs in the Hall of Fame who benefited significantly from a home field advantage, such as ...

... , among others, discussing either his talents or his candidacy for the American League MVP award. The whole thing got me thinking: Where exactly does this Pedroia season rate among MVP-caliber seasons for second basemen in the last 25 years? Here are a few worth considering as you bathe in Pedroia's current numbers (a .333 average with 17 home runs, 44 doubles and 76 RBI): -- In 1984, Cubs second baseman Ryne Sandberg had a .314 batting average while racking up 19 triples, 19 home runs, 36 doubles and 84 RBI on his way to winning one of the last MVP awards to go to a second ...

There was always stuff down the road you could do with it. You could always shoot for making the majors, or (on the other side) hearing the stories of hanging out with famous artists and touring to cool places. I always wanted to do something at a level like that, and that’s what makes both of them fun for me. Name your top five Cubs.

... win a world championship and must know that getting Manny has increased the odds dramatically in his favor.  He’s certainly playing like it. This is not typical.  40 year old second basemen do not normally make an impact.  It’s a position- a game, for that matter, skewed to the young.  Rarely does someone of Kent’s age get to play every day, let alone play and thrive.  Since Jackie Robinson broke down the color barrier, 40 has been a tough number for even the best at Kent’s position. HOFer Ryan Sandberg didn’t have a good year after the age of 33 and retired at 37.  Sweet Lou ...

This was possible without modifying the system since the relevant hit type and fielder data is present for those eleven seasons (in the same ratios as available for 2003 through 2007 for the major leagues and 2005-2007 for the minor leagues). Although you'll need to read the piece to get all the details, suffice it to say that Ozzie Smith, Cal Ripken, Mark Lemke, Ryne Sandberg, Matt Williams, John Olerud, and Mark Grace all come out looking ...
