The Baseball Analysts has two great pieces on the tenancies of pitchers throughout MLB last season. Rich Lederer takes a look at pitchers based on ground ball percentage and strike out rate, and broke it down for the starters and for the relievers. Tendencies are really helpful in predicting how a pitcher will fair in the coming year, or years. Perhaps a pitcher with a low K-rate and low GB% put

However, it could also end up being another Todd Jones-Joel Zumaya situation. The situation

Young should have some fantasy value in 2007, as one of the top contenders for the NL ROTY Award.

Tim over at RotoAuthority is back and couldn't wait to get his projection out on the soon-to-be-star-centerfielder.

Extreme Fantasy Baseball takes a shot at projecting what King Felix will do in his sophomore season with the Mariners. I'll be surprised myself if his WHIP is as low as he's projecting, but his strikeouts and wins looks just about right. That won't be too shabby of a line for a kid who's only 21 years old. If you're in a keeper league and for some strange reason Felix is available, grab him.

Now that Mark McGwire is going to be on the 2007 Major League Baseball Hall of Fame ballot, it's caused all kinds of controversy about whether or not he is a first ballot hall of famer, or a hall of famer at all, due to his purported steroid use.

John Sickles over at MinorLeagueBall.com likes to take young players and project how he feels their entire career will shape up.

What is it about Rhode Island that brings the anger out of minor league ballplayers in the form of violent actions? First it was Israel Alcantara's drop kick (video) back in 2001 and now, 5 years later, its Delmon Young getting in on the action. Young got thrown out of the Durham Bulls/Pawtucket Red Sox yesterday for arguing balls and strikes. He then decided it would be a good idea to flip his

It may be a bit outdated, but this bit is hilarious.If you're a Red Sox fan, can you remember exactly you what you said you'd give to see the Red Sox win the World Series in your lifetime? I don't know what that first guy's pissed off about. $5,000? He got off easy compared to Denis Leary.

I know professional athletes like to make money. Sometimes their multi-million dollar contracts aren't enough and they find themselves signing contracts with major companies to help consumers associate their favorite all-stars with those products. Venus Williams, Alex Rodriguez, and Tiger Woods make millions upon millions of dollars from endorsing American Express, General Motors, and Nike

In Major League Baseball, what do fans care more about: the team or the players? Do they show more loyalty to a good team or to a good player? Fans line up for tickets to watch their team play live on their home turf (or grass) to root them on to victory, and it's no doubt that the vast majority of the fans in attendance at every home game are rooting for their team to come out with the "W.” But

He never had it this bad:Apparently, sometime before the Red Sox/Blue Jays game on Sunday the new Sox closer lost a bet with a certain teammate. I thought betting wasn't allowed in baseball.

Well, we haven't made an article dedicated to hockey yet so might as well start now with the start of the NHL Playoffs. Hockey is like art: I don't know who's good but I do know what I like.

Thousands of people rose to their feet as one of the greatest pitchers of a generation won his 200th game. Thousands of Mets fans joined their “long-time” hero (a season and a few games) in celebrating the great milestone. This celebration seemed something like celebrating the 50th wedding anniversary of your widowed wife a few years after you tie the knot. Noticeably absent in the celebration

Some of the smartest and most dedicated people in baseball, specifically fantasy baseball, grew up and went through their schooling not ever thinking about "breaking into the big leagues." Just two examples include Trace Wood of The Long Gandhi who was a professional trumpet player and Ron Shandler of Baseball Forcaster fame who used to sell jingles for birthday and barmitzvahs.

Alright, I want to get this out of the way. Jimmy Rollins seems like a nice guy. Maybe a little to confident in himself, but you know what, after last year he's earned it. He's not a prick to the media and even has his own radio show. He's nice enough to the fans. And he's a pretty good ball player. I'd like to have him on my fantasy team and I'd gladly root for him if he was on my team. Here's

OK, so as I mentioned before, Game Four has two official fantasy baseball teams. We just drafted our second of the two, which was put together by SportsBlah. I have to say, not much different than the last draft. The team came out a little different, but the draft itself was

Now, most of them are private leagues and private teams, some keepers, some one year, some roto, some head to head.

Spring Training is a completely different experience for baseball fans. The fences are low, the field is close, the stands are smaller, and the players are more relaxed. It's a time where major league games are played in minor league parks, where tickets cost $15 rather than $50. A chance to see your favorite players in a more intimate atmosphere. All told, it's a fun time. Or is it?Planning on

I still feel Bob Davidson, the home plate umpire, made the wrong call. The only thing I'm going to change about my opinion is that perhaps they did not over rule it based on Buck Martinez's argument. Perhaps Davidson is just the one who didn't think Tsuyoshi Nishioka waited long enough to tag up. That's how it's being reported anyway. I mean, that's still a bad call, and it's not good for the WBC

Right when I go out and completely praise the World Baseball Classic, something that many aren't doing outside of Bud Selig and a few other blogs, they go an make a incredibly wrong call during the USA/Japan game. Basically, there's no reason why the call should have been called back at third base. Tsuyoshi Nishioka left for home to score the go-ahead run. It was contested that he left the bag

The first round of the first (of hopefully many) World Baseball Classic has given Bud Selig just about everything it needed to to set a foundation for an incredible international tournament, and nothing it didn't need.It has given us upsets, but not to a degree that it would belittle the tournament.

Apparently, a high school softball player in California, whose leg had to be amputated following her being hit by a car, has had her prosthetic leg stolen – for the second time.This would be a tragic story if it wasn’t for the sheer absurdity of the situation. It seems that this girl’s prosthetic leg is state of the art, costing $16,000 and, obviously, allowing her to play competitive athletics.

We have decided that Javy [Lopez] will go to spring training with the Orioles." - Chuck Berry, Javy Lopez's agent.That's weird, I thought they decided to report to spring training with the Orioles when he signed his contract a few years back."Our head coach said it before.

Yeah, yachts are nice. Putters from Arnold Palmer aren't bad either. Hunting trips, well, I'm sure some people would be excited about this. As John Branch of the New York Times has reported, these are all things that factor into where future Super Bowls will be held. It doesn't matter if the temperature is 30 degrees (Detroit). It doesn't matter if a city has no public transportation (

Ok, I'm a fan of this whole World Baseball Classic and I hope it goes over well. I've decided I'm going to help. What's the best way to make a sporting event more interesting? Cheerleaders? Perhaps. Beer? Some would agree. But the one thing that always brings people together for a questionably interesting sporting event or tournament? Gambling. It's the reason the NFL has flourished over the

Only one more month until the exhibition games start for the World Baseball Classic. Peurto Rico vs Mets; Canada vs Blue Jays; and most importantly South Africa vs Athletics! That's right South Africa is the team to watch in the first truly world championship of baseball. Remember in 2000 when they beat the Netherlands in the Olympics 3-2? They're a force to reckon with and here's some reasons

Ok, I'll be honest, I'm not a huge hockey fan. Something about the 20 minute intervals between periods, the recent lock out, and the lack of cheerleaders. Wait, what's that? Hockey has cheerleaders now? Well, I know at least the Tampa Bay Lightning do. Now, I'm not saying this is going to push me to start following the NHL; far from it, but it's definetly a push in the right direction.As

Just when you thought it was safe to jeer Knicks forward Antonio Davis, his wife is back selling crazy. This time she’s being charged for misdemeanor battery for throwing hot coffee in a woman’s face in a traffic altercation in October. According to reports, a woman saw Davis run a stop sign and apparently tried to make some sort of citizen’s arrest. Or something. Anyway, Kendra Davis being

As you may already know, ESPN is about to air their new reality show "Knight School" where walk-on players compete for the final spot on Texas Tech's roster.Now, couldn't anyone just look up Texas Tech's roster now and look for that player and find out who wins? Doesn't that take away from the show a little bit? Another question: Why hasn't ESPN thought of something like this sooner? With the

According to the Kansas City Star the Chiefs may be interested in soon-to-be former Eagles wide receiver for the 2006-07 season. They join the short list of publicly announced interested teams in Owens.Judging by his Boost Mobile commercials and short forced interviews I'd say that Owens, as a person, hasn't changed all that much.

According to the Baltimore Sun, Javy Lopez, the Baltimore Orioles Catcher, reportedly either wants an extension or a trade to a team that will let him catch more often (although it looks like San Diego is no longer an option). Word has it that the 35 year old Lopez is seeking an extension somewhere around $24 million for 3 years. Just for reference, Lopez is currently operating under a 3 year,

For those who missed it during the NFL playoffs, here's the TO Boost Mobile commercial.For the record, it was supposed to be a one-time only airing on CBS during the divisional round of the NFL playoffs (ended up airing during the Patriots/Brocnos game) but it aired again during the AFC Championship game.

Boston says goodbye to a fan favorite and gets an all-star that hasn't been fully healthy for two seasons. Ricky Davis had a few issues in Cleveland but really became a basketball icon in Beantown. He always stepped it up in the 4th quarter.

Well, I was, well, I still am a big supporter of the World Baseball Classic. I think its a fine endeavor. I really do. Especially since baseball was taken out of the Olympics, I think its the best way to expand the sport most people love. Baseball is nowhere near the level of World soccer is, but the WBC is a step in the right direction. I just hope it's not hosted in the US every time it comes

According to Guerrilla Sports, Brad Penny isn't satisfied with just chugging milk for money.Isn't this just the adult version of what every little kid used to do at recess? Or what college kids still do at frat parties? So, because it's Brad Penny setting it up it's a hit. At least he's spending the off-season productively. The Dodgers must be very proud.

Well, apparently Larry Lucchino and Theo Epstein can. They sat down together and discussed a few Red Sox issue. Theo claims there was never a "power struggle" and admits he made the wrong move with Renteria last off-season. It's a long article, and both men are very PR savvy, but it still makes for an interesting read if you're bored at work and you're boss isn't around. Until Next Time...

Ozzie Guillen likes Paul Konerko. A lot. Apparently he's already announced that he is planning on making Konerko the captain of the defending champs for the 2006 season. Only one problem, Konerko doesn't want the title. He doesn't want to be singled out, he doesn't want to wear the "C", and he doesn't want to mess with the team chemistry that helped the team win their first World Series

I thought we were past this fad. About 7 or 8 years ago it was the biggest thing to have a "laser pointer". Every kid had one. My little brother wined and squealed until he got one. They had different patterns and different laser strengths. They were AWESOME. Then someone said they were dangerous. They could ruin your eyes. No kid cared. They'd point them at anyone at anytime.
