The Outsiders Look at the Insides of Baseball: Dear Yahoo/Experts League Organizers
http://theoutsiderslook.blogspot.com/2011/02/dear-yahooexperts-league-organizers.html
Wednesday, February 9, 2011. Dear Yahoo/Experts League Organizers. Allow me to join a league with Brandon Funston? Yesterday Yahoo released their starting pitcher preseason ranks. Mr Funston tabbed Jon Lester. As his 11th best starting pitcher. That's right, 11th! Meaning there are 10 pitchers that are superior to Lester. Here's the line I'm thinking for Lester for 2011 season - his age 27 season:. 20w, 240k, 2.80, and 1.15. Second, the wins. This Red Sox team is loaded, as I previously mentioned, in...

The Outsiders Look at the Insides of Baseball: November 2008

Sunday, November 30, 2008. 2009 Hot Stove Updates - Part Two. Another week into the off season, and another week with little to no action. Rumors, however, are beginning to heat up as teams send out their arbitration offers to impending free agents, as well as letting it be known what their intentions are for the winter meetings. With the rule five draft a little over two weeks away, we see a front office executives look at how things work. Paul DePodesta of the San Diego Padres writes. Pettitte's agent ...

The Outsiders Look at the Insides of Baseball: September 2010
http://theoutsiderslook.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 24, 2010. During tonight's Jays-O's radio broadcast I heard a "record" that hasn't been getting any press and also one that drew me to an even more startling conclusion. Baltimore Orioles right fielder Nick Markakis. Became the third (yes, the THIRD) major leaguer in history to have 4 straight seasons of 43 or more doubles. Wow, really? That's quite impressive, well done Nick! Be chalked up to Justin Smoak. Who has played for both the worst and third worst teams in terms of team first b...

The Outsiders Look at the Insides of Baseball: August 2010
http://theoutsiderslook.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 28, 2010. Thinking it Over - End of Year Awards. The Cy Young Award, and many other in baseball are typically given to a pitcher which it is often times difficult to agree with. I think back to when Bartolo Colon. Won the award in 2005, a year when he led the league in essentially one statistical category, yet walked away with the award. This insight (read - tangent) came from my perusing of Baseball Prospectus' On the Beat. Felix is currently tied with CC Sabathia. I suppose what this p...

Sunday, April 19, 2009. The National League - Without Ration or Reason. Here is my bare bones National League prognostication:. 2 New York Mets*. 1 St Louis Cardinals. 1 Los Angeles Dodgers. 3 San Francisco Giants. 4 San Diego Padres. I'll take time in the next few days to break down the teams and divisions, MLB.tv takes up more time then I thought it would. Posted by Brandon Heikoop. Sunday, April 19, 2009. Links to this post. Sunday, April 12, 2009. Procrastinating Prognostication American League.

The Outsiders Look at the Insides of Baseball: June 2009
http://theoutsiderslook.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 17, 2009. Now I am simply confused. Listening to Toronto's AM 640 yesterday, the sub for Bill Waters was discussing the Blue Jays and taking calls about the Blue Jays. There seemed to be an ongoing theme that JP Riccardi did not know what he had in terms of arms in the system. This theme was coming as praise for the young arms in the Blue Jays system with the solid job they had done to this point. That aside, I find this report to be conflicting with what another writer stated. That the J...

Tuesday, September 30, 2008. What Would the Outsider Do" - Cincinnati Reds. With a handful of promising Major League ready youngsters, the Reds are poised to build their roster into a contender in the near future. However, 2009 will not be that season and the Reds should simply be content with development and health. The Reds are stocked with a lot of very nice prospects. However, many of the prospects are getting old for their level of competition which could lead to some misleading numbers. Who are all...

No Sweep This Time… | Redbird Ramblings
https://redbirdramblings.wordpress.com/2009/04/26/no-sweep-this-time
My random ramblings about the 2006 world series champs, the st.louis cardinals. No Sweep This Time…. April 26, 2009. Didn’t go so well now did it? I don’t know about you, but I’m kinda getting tired of the broad shouldered project. no more relievers into starters from now on ok? K, no questions asked. So, what should be done with todd. it’s obvious isn’t it? You got me. it’s not like we need anymore, there are already like 13 pitchers on this roster right? I’m done for today; sigh. Enter your comment here.

The Outsiders Look at the Insides of Baseball: October 2010
http://theoutsiderslook.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 27, 2010. Since the worst blogger died. Quickly, San Francisco is still. My pick to take the World Series. The Rangers have faired well to this point while not having to face the caliber of pitching that they will see from the Giants. Further, four of the possible seven games will take place in a pitchers ball park, where those can'o'corn homers will be more along their rightful lines. I'm going with San Francisco in five, although I want to say six. Either way, Giants win. A couple ye...

Wednesday, April 25, 2012. Fixing the BoSox.or Not. I picked the Boston Red Sox to win the American League East, I also picked the Rangers to finish second to the Angels in the American League West. I'm glad we're only two weeks in. While I may have been one of the more optimistic prognosticators when it came to the Red Sox, I simply can't understand the crazies who think there needs to be major changes in Boston in order for this team to turn things around. How do these moves make the Red Sox better?
