[ The day game yesterday pushed these projections back a bit, but we wanted to take a look at the numbers at the half season mark. Data does not include yesterday's game. We've done three things here: first we've taken statistics from the first half of the season and done a simple ...
First Third Projections - Pitching
fackyouk.blogspot.com 6/6/2009 — [ With the completion of Game 54 on Thursday , the regular season is exactly one third over. The sample sizes are getting larger by the day, and it's now getting to the point where it's not exactly too early to be making any assessments. We can't draw any firm conclusions, but now ...
Second Half Issue: Stop Overworking the Bullpen
slidingintohome.blogspot.com 7/14/2009 — To continue today's pitching theme, I bring up another one of the Yankees second half issues, their overworked bullpen. The Yankees bullpen has thrown more innings than just three other AL teams; the A's, the Orioles, and the Indians. If you haven't looked at the standings lately, those are ...
First Half Review: Starting Pitchers
riveraveblues.com 7/13/2009 — At 51-37, with the third best record in baseball, leading the Wild Card and just three games back in the AL East, the Yankees had a fine first half. Yet it was a tumultuous three months, wrought with streaks and injuries and strange trends, causing ...
Fixing the Pitching
slidingintohome.blogspot.com 7/13/2009 — Coming into the year the Yankees were supposed to have one of the best five man rotations in the league. It hasn't worked out that way at all though. Sabathia has been very good and an innings eater but not truly the ace that the Yankees were looking for, Pettitte is showing his age and has been ...
Breaking Down the Yankees for the Second Half--The Rotation
puristbleedspinstripes.com 7/15/2009 — So the All Star Game is officially over--and we can thus consider ourselves in the second half. This is where it gets fun. All of those days players got rested in the first half? Well, now they have to play. Now the pennant races start to heat up, and every move a team makes, be it a trade, a ...
Of Pitch Values and Wasting Your Time
310tojoba.blogspot.com 7/16/2009 — .nobr br { display: none } Recently, in their quest to ensure that I never want to leave my computer, Fangraphs added a section about individual pitch types that weight the "potency" of individual pitchers' offerings by the amount of runs that a team saves when a pitcher employs them. I linked ...
HUGHes Save #1
noyoureatowel.net 7/24/2009 — Phil Hughes just got his first major league save to close out Sabathia's 10th win. The Yankees got this game in before 1 AM, somehow. Big blast by Teixeira, a nice job getting to New Jersey-native Vin Mazzaro after a slow start, and a pretty solid outing from CC. But the talk will be for Phil ...
Phil Hughes Allows First ER Since June 9
mlbnotebook.com 7/31/2009 — New York Yankees RHP Phil Hughes has emerged as one of the top set-up men in the game. Going into last night's appearance against the Chicago White Sox, he had lowered his ERA from 5.45 to 3.43 since being moved to the bullpen; he had started seven games before that point. Not being able to get ...

A closer look at Sabathia’s sore arm
yankees.lhblogs.com 6/23/2009 — CC Sabathia had a sore arm on Sunday and left the game in the second inning. After investing $161 million in the big lefty, that was the last thing the Yankees wanted to see.
George King of the Post talked to Sabathia yesterday and asked him what ...
NEW YANKEE STADIUM NO HOME FOR PETTITTE —
NY Post: Sports 7/7/2009
> BIG picture observation for the day is that if the Yankees make the playoffs, they're going to have to set up the rotation so that Andy Pettitte gets his start on the road. It's not quite the sexy topic it was at the start of the season ...
Call Jays and make an offer for Halladay —
Newsday.com - Mets 7/8/2009
This was starting to look like the dullest of non-waivers trade deadlines. A month of waiting to see where Doug Davis - a fine pitcher, but not quite CC Sabathia - and Nick Johnson - a decent first baseman, but not quite Mark Teixeira - wound up.
...
