Hypothetically Speaking: The Tim Lincecum Contract Extension
jorgesaysno.blogspot.com — Now that the Giants are officially eliminated from playoff contention, they can finally focus a long term deal for The Freak, Tim Lincecum.

Where's Derek Lowe?
jorgesaysno.blogspot.com — I'd like to have a word or two with Ted Keith. Not only did he put Ryan Dempster on the list of worst free agent contracts, but more surprisingly, he did not put Derek Lowe on his list. How is this possible? Just look at the stats: (more) Where's Derek Lowe?
Free Agent at the End of the Season: Jason Bay
Free Agent at the End of the Season: Jason Bay
jorgesaysno.blogspot.com — There is no doubt in my mind that Jason Bay can be a very productive player. He's proven that time and time again. Since 2004, Bay has hit at least 20 home runs in every season and four times he's hit more than 30 home runs in a season. Bay has developed into a very potent power hitter....

Can the Rangers Play Andruw Jones Regularly?
jorgesaysno.blogspot.com — One of the most under reported stories so far this season is the rapid improvement of Andruw Jones. Sure, Jones has only played part time.

The Russ Ortiz Experiment Refuses to End
The Russ Ortiz Experiment Refuses to End
jorgesaysno.blogspot.com — The last time Russ Ortiz had a good season in the major leagues was all the way back in 2004 with the Braves.

2009 Northern League All Stars
jorgesaysno.blogspot.com — After examining some of the ex- MLBers in the Atlantic League, I was feeling rather unfulfilled.

The 25th Man
The 25th Man
jorgesaysno.blogspot.com — The goal of any fringe player coming out of spring training is to make the 25 man roster. The belief is simple: if I make the roster, then I at least will have a chance to show the club what I can do. Not to mention that playing in the big leagues is much better than the minors. But how about ... (more) The 25th Man

Yuniesky Betancourt: How Is This Possible?
jorgesaysno.blogspot.com — Yuniesky Betancourt is a unique player. As the great Rob Neyer pointed out this morning , Betancourt has 0 walks in 25 games this season; a statistic that seems almost hard to believe considering the sabermetric age we live in.
