WaitingForNextYear | October 3rd 2008 by Scott Sargent
Man. It was just days ago that we were discussing what C.C. Sabathia’s arrival in Milwaukee meant for their 2008 season. After going 6-8 in Cleveland, the hefty lefty was nearly unhittable for the Brewers by going 11-2 with an ERA of 1.65. read more

WaitingForNextYear | September 29th 2008 by Scott Sargent

Thoughts on CC Sabathia, Cy Young Awards, and MVPs
Blue-Collar Baseball | September 24th 2008 by SDeaner
Tonight, in a game versus the Pirates, CC Sabathia will make a second start on three days rest. First of all, I'm not a pitch-count guy, I think it's wimpy. I think it is fairly obvious, however, that the Brewers don't plan on pursuing Sabathia in t read more

CC is OK
Cubs f/x | September 21st 2008 by Harry Pavlidis
After CC Sabathia's start against the Cubs last week, there was a bit of buzz about the spike in change-up use, and drop in fastball use. As I noted this weekend, CC's biggest change was a lack of first pitch fastballs.Sabathia came back on short re read more

Freezing Opener Pushed Back Two Weeks
WaitingForNextYear | September 19th 2008 by Scott Sargent
Apparently, all it took was two years of ridiculously early opening days for Major League Baseball to realize that the Indians should perhaps start a season of baseball on the road. With the release of the 2009 schedule, Tribe fans will no longer read more

If Manny wins M.V.P, I quit baseball!
Wax Heaven | September 11th 2008 by Mario Alejandro
Lately, there has been talk of Manny Ramirez deserving the M.V.P award (link) for the National League. Sure, the numbers are all there, including 12 home runs and 36 RBI in just 37 games. Oh, he’s also brought the Los Angeles Dodgers to first p read more

Hey C.C. You Threw A One Hitter
The Mets Police | September 1st 2008
This talk of going back in time and changing the scoring of yesterday's one hitter is crazy. Every time someone doesn't like a call we're going to appeal it? If he had given up a second hit later would they be trying to get t read more
Matters Up
Razzball | September 1st 2008 by StanHayes

What's The 401?!?! | August 28th 2008 by Joseph DeRita
