This season he's 7-2 with a 2.79 ERA, sixth best in the AL. Verlander's intangibles, from poise to work ethic, are ...

Let's Hit Rewind on Buzz Bissinger's Play Article
"Maybe you've heard -- Buzz Bissinger is in the bloggy sports news ether today. Several people sent us Buzz's piece on Kerry Wood in the New York Times magazine Play from about a year ago.

Roto Chronicles: American League - June 16
With each passing start you have to wonder how close Francisco Liriano is to returning to the Twin’s rotation. Especially with Nick Blackburn possibly headed to the DL and both Livan Hernandez and Glen Perkins struggling. Liriano finished another positive week pitching 13.1 innings striking out 12, walking one and allowing just three earned runs.

Miles and miles of heart.
