Capitol Avenue Club (Braves): Addressing the needs: Bench Bat
The list of candidates for the Braves' big bench addition for 2011 doubles as a list of superstars from 1999. And Brooks Conrad.

Celebrating one of the Cubs' moves that, you know, worked out a little bit.
Redleg Nation: Davey Concepcion and the Hall of Fame
I'm sorry. Blue, Concepcion, Garvey, Guidry, John, Oliver, Simmons, Staub, Billy Martin and a bunch of execs? If any one of those guys makes it, Ron Santo can sue this "committee" for everything they've got.

Mets Today: 2010 Analysis: Mike Pelfrey
Trying to make sense of the tremendous ups and downs of Pelfrey's 2010. Seems to me his monthly FIP and xFIP tell a much less befuddling story.
Crashburn Alley (Phillies): Roy Halladay Set to Earn Some Hardware
"Whether traditional or Sabermetric, the numbers seem to overwhelmingly support Halladay in the NL Cy Young race. It would be surprising to see anyone else take home the hardware, but stranger things have happened." I like this because the link points to something I'm still totally bitter about.

Part three of the nine-part series...all on the first day of Geoff's trip from San Diego to Tony Gwynn's Hall of Fame induction. Good stuff.
Fungoes (Cardinals): Best values among Type A and B free agents
See, if Elias had any idea at all what it was doing, an article like this wouldn't be possible (or at least would be really boring).
Nationals Baseball: Phrase using the word "done," except...
Sorry, I'm not going to copy that whole title. It's about signing Adam Dunn. "They want Carlos Pena. They need Carlos Pena. I don't know why. Nobody really does. But there is a deep psychological yearning in Mike Rizzo that will only be satisfied when Carlos Pena buttons up his Washington jersey and runs out onto the field in Viera."

Some ruminating on Alex Anthopoulos and his cute little Miguel Olivo maneuver.
And on The Platoon Advantage: Bill looks at the history of interleague play in NL parks. Is the AL really as much better as everybody thinks, or is it just that evil DH rule?
