Willie Deserved Better – And So Did These Guys

Clo Clo posted 6/22/2008 from seamheads.com

I never expected I would feel bad for Willie Randolph. How the Mets could screw up a slam dunk of a firing the way they did by canning a manager who just won his third of four games after flying coast-to-coast the day after meeting with the GM and asking to be fired IF he was going to be before making the trip is amazing, indeed. In honor of Willie Randolph's 3:14am EDT firing on Tuesday is ...

Dude, Would It Kill You to Take a Walk?

Clo Clo posted 6/11/2008 from blog.baseballdigestdaily.com

One thing I'm noticing about the Royals is that their hitters really, really don't like to accept help from opposing pitchers. The only guy on the team who is drawing walks in 10% or more of his plate appearances is Mark Teahen (10.5%). Some of these numbers are outrageous: Tony Pena, 2.4% Jose Guillen, 2.7% Miguel Olivo, 3.1% Joey Gathright, 4.7% Really, if a guy like Gathright can't reach ...
