Sean Nolin was a 6th round pick of the Blue Jays in this years draft out of San Jacinto Junior College in Texas.

Nolin's fastball will sit at 86-89 mph in some games and 88-92 in others, and he backs it up with a solid changeup and fringy curveball...

Astros Getting Better, Red Sox Making Progress?
Poor Jason Jennings. He simply can't catch a break. He's managed to pitch pretty effectively in his first four years at Coors Field with the Rockies. His stats weren't always pretty but he won games and fared a hell of a lot better than guys like Mike Hampton or Denny Neagle. Jennings is finally leaving the pitcher's hellhole of Coors Field…and heading towards...

Jon Leiber Signs with the Cubs: The Fantasy Impact
The only thing holding back Lieber from being a useful fantasy pitcher is how healthy he is going into 2008. Lieber is usually a helpful pitcher in terms of ERA, WHIP, W's, and even some K's (though he's not really known for strikeouts). This is mostly attributed to his excellent control. He owns a career Ctl of 1.73, and even last season, when he only pitched 78 innings and posted...

Baseball Knowledge 101: DIPS > ERA
The Astros are awful, irrelevant, and just easy to make fun of having passed the trade deadline. Instead, we're focusing on objective baseball knowledge -- which just makes the Astros look even worse/inept. Today we're focusing on why DIPS does a better job at evaluting true pitching performance -- which ERA woefully fails to do. Why does it matter to you: it makes you a smarter...
