Brett’s Top 10 Plots of the Winter Meetings (10-8)

With the winter meetings just around the corner, I’m going to be releasing my top ten stories to follow throughout the best weekend of the entire winter for a baseball fan. This is obviously the place where the rumors fly, the GM’s get together to talk trade, and free agent talks pick up steam. 10- [...]

Surprise! Sportswriters Get One Right

The Cy Young award winners were announced this week, and as many predicted Zack Greinke won in the AL and Tim Lincecum won in the NL. This shows some forward thinking by the BBWAA, who usually determine the winner of this award by the number of wins and losses a pitcher has and their ERA. [...]

Money Not Well Spent

Vernon Wells signed a seven year $126 million dollar deal in December 2006 coming off a season where he posted an OPS of .899. The move was questionable at the time and it’s looking worse every day. This contract is arguably the worst in all of baseball. If I were the GM of a baseball [...]

Our Tribute to a Fallen Angel

There isn’t anyone who hasn’t heard the story and tragic death of Angels promising right hander. It’s one that will pull at your heart strings and make you think about what’s truly important in life. Nick Adenhart was tragically taken from his family, friends, teammates, organization, and baseball fans across the country due to Thomas [...]

Rumor: Kevin Millwood for Milton Bradley

A new rumor has surfaced regarding the inevitable trade of Milton Bradley between the Rangers and Cubs that would send Kevin Millwood to Chicago and Aaron Miles to Arlington along with Bradley.

Player Prediction: Wandy Rodriguez

When you think of the starting pitching in Houston, the name that comes to mind is almost assuredly Roy Oswalt. Yet for the 2010 season and beyond, Wandy Rodriguez looks like the player to keep your eye on. This 30-year-old lefty has been with the Astros his entire five year career in the Major Leagues. [...]

Kenny’s Redemption

Last year, Kenny Williams made a questionable move by claiming Alex Rios for 60 million off waivers. Toronto was more than thrilled to let him go and actually let him go for free. This move has been questioned by everyone in America that follows either team. That’s a lot of dough for a guy that [...]

Sportswriters Blow It Again. Not a Surprise.

Who’s surprised to see Tommy Hanson not win the Rookie of the Year award? Anyone? I’m not saying Chris Coghlan didn’t deserve some votes, but what I am saying is that Tommy Hanson was hands down my pick for the Rookie of the Year award. It’s pretty tough to ignore a guy who came up [...]

For the Love of Ted Lilly!

Upon hearing about Ted Lilly’s shoulder surgery on November 4th, I began to think about how important he really is to the success of the Cubs in 2010. Lilly has grown into a fan-favorite with the Cubbie-faithful, something I never would have imagined just 3 years ago… I will wholeheartedly admit how skeptical I was [...]

Hurricane Mike

Florida Marlins’ fans have yet another up and coming athletic freak on the verge of hitting the south beaches like a hurricane. Mike Stanton just turned 20 years old and is already creating a buzz in south Florida similar to the buzz all star Miguel Cabrera once received. Drafted in 2007 in the 2nd round, [...]
