Colorado Rockies Rant from the Sports Muffin
From the Hairy Guate
Sports Illustrated picked the Colorado Rockies to go 89-73 this year and reach the NLCS. Many other experts agreed that they would either win the NL west or claim the Wild Card. I know they made the World Series last year, BUT COME ON!!! With that starting pitching I'm not sure how on earth that even happened. Nobody in their rotation has ever posted a...

This Date in Pirates History: January 5
No big transactions or big name players born on this date on this date in Pittsburgh Pirates history but plenty of players to get to and even a manager thrown in there.
Mark Redman(1974) The Pirates acquired Redman, along with Arthur Rhodes in November 2004 from the Oakland A’s in exchange for Jason Kendall. He went 11-12 4.71 for the A’s in 2004 after winning 14 games...

Rockies Top 5: Best Performances in 2008 (#5)
Mark Redman bounces back from 10 first inning runs.
How many pitchers are left to suffer through a 10-run inning (Rockies did it twice in 2008), let alone allowed to continue into the next frame?
That?s exactly what happened to Mark Redman on this crappy night in Los Angeles.
Well, not exactly what happened.? Redman was allowed to [...]

Closing Time
Baseball's winter meetings are proving to be rather interesting, with the Bucs making a couple of moves. I'm going to wait until the meetings end and the dust settles before I weigh in on those moves, but the write-up of the Mark Redman deal by DK from this morning's PPG has compelled me to make with...

Florida Marlins again on the hunt for bargains
The Marlins looked like a finished product on paper right around this time in 2002. Then, after December turned to January, they signed Ivan Rodriguez and traded for Mark Redman and, well, the rest is history.

Braves Pitching Staff Lights out in Spring Training
Leo Mazzone or the Braves organization? Is there ever a concern that the Braves won't have enough quality arms? Check out the Spring stats. If all of the Orioles pitchers dissapoint once again and the Braves pitchers exceed expectations, I think we're going to see some of the luster come off of the great Leo Mazzone.

Francis, Cook, Jimenez…then pray for rain
If you’ve been watching the Rockies this Spring Training, odds are you’ve been disgusted with what you’ve seen out of the candidates striving for a spot in the back end of the rotation. Franklin Morales, Mark Redman, Kip Wells, and Josh Towers either have shown underwhelming stuff o...

Colorado Rockies must make a move to be competitive
There are many fans of the Colorado Rockies out there who simply don't understand how the organization works. They think that the team should be in the running for free agents like Cliff Lee. They believe that they should trade their top prospects for players whose contracts are over $10 million per year. The Rockies tried that. It didn't work.The Rockies model has proven...

Is It April Already, or Am I Just Happy to See You?
Today is my favorite day of the year — the Friday before the weekend before the regular season begins. By this point on the calendar the weather has turned warmer, my interest in college basketball has bitterly cooled (“Yeah? ‘March Suckness’ is more like it, jerkbag.“) and the Braves haven’t yet succumbed to mediocrity, injury or outlandishly...

All-Decade Team: Pitchers
The infielders and outfielders are wrapped up, and now is the final group, the pitchers. Over the past ten years there have been many pitchers who have gone through the bullpen and rotation, but there were definitely a few who stuck out as potential pitchers of the decade for the Minnesota Twins.In this final section of the All-Decade Team, the best three starters, the best bullpen...

Neyer Happ(ily) sets the record straight
There’s been a ton of talk this offseason about J.A. Happ’s ‘lucky’ 2009 rookie season. In short, the sum of Happ’s peripheral stats in 2009 aren’t the making of a sustainable sub-3 ERA beyond his rookie year. He walked too many, struck out too few, but was lucky enough to strand a majority. Luckily, Neyer comes to Happ’s defense. His point? With the internet, anyone...

Where Does Colby Lewis’ Non-K Game Rank?
Pitchers can succeed without striking batters out, but a failure to whiff shifts more of the burden to the defense. Based on what we know about pitchers and their controllable skills, limiting the number of balls in play increases the likelihood of a good outing. Strikeouts might not guarantee an out due to the dropped third strike rule, but they result in outs virtually 99 percent...

The importance of being different
I wasn't going to post on this article published earlier this week by Dejan Kovacevic, but Charlie made a great post about it at Bucs Dugout and then Wilbur Miller followed it up with a great comment. Their two points in tandem jogged my memory a bit and it gives me an opportunity to talk about something I've been meaning to talk about for some time.
What both Charlie and...

Talkin' Pirates Baseball
We all know about the nearly two decades worth of futility. The Pirates haven't cracked the .500 plateau since 1992 and it's all but certain that streak will not come to an end this season. However, after years of the previous regime filling out the roster with expensive band-aid veterans like Jeromy Burnitz and Mark Redman, new GM Neal Huntington has reversed course and dealt...
