I just read on Rotoworld that the White
Sox are close to signing Omar Vizquel. The report
also mentions that he will serve as a backup across all the infield spots, for Mark Teahen at third, Alexei Ramirez at short, and Gordon Beckham at second. And the overarching question that I had while ...

Congratulations to Tim Lincecum for winning the NL
Cy Young award this year, as well as to
the BBWAA voters for actually giving it to him. I was fairly sure that Chris Carpenter was going to win based on his league leading 2.24 ERA and 17-4 record, or – failing that – it would go to his ...

I've been falling behind in my self-promotion as
of late, and we can't have that, can we?
At FanGraphs , the Free Agency Fantasy Impact series continues with Justin Duchscherer: "Because he doesn't overpower hitters (~86 MPH fastball), the elbow shouldn't be a problem. If his mental health ...

As I mentioned earlier, we're now at the

bitter, but the finality is kind of nice, if that gets you through the winter. If not, stock up on your Hot Toddy ingredients and prepare to push through the dark days ahead (Literally ...

Albert Pujols' 2009 season deserved to be examined
in many ways. He had 47 home runs and
64 strikeouts. To put this in perspective, there were 22 players with at least 32 home runs, and only 2 had less than 100 strikeouts. The other player? Aaron Hill with 36 home runs and 98 strikeouts. It ...

Zack Greinke won the AL Cy Young award,
with 25 of 28 first-place votes. It should have
been unanimous, but I won't quibble with that. Instead, I'd like to bring attention to this article from the NY Times. Greinke considered that Felix Hernandez might have been awarded by the voters, but it ...

Last offseason, the Dodgers were able to acquire
second baseman Orlando Hudson for a cheap 1-year/$3.8 million.
With Hudson winning a Gold Glove for his play in 2009, resigning him won't be that simple. There's also no guarantee the Dodgers attempt to resign Hudson. In fact, it appears Hudson ...

With all of the Cy Young hype yesterday,
the Yankees declining Sergio Mitre 's option for 2010
fell through the cracks. They did not want to pay him $1.25MM, and understandably so. However, he is still under team control, and could be back with the team through a new deal or arbitration. ...
