  1. on Beltre: ppl say "I want more OBP in the lineup" but never "I want to see worse defense in the field". It's all tradeoffs.
  2. @davesund we'll have a short post on washburn for tomorrow morning for you
  3. Only 325 days before "Will Griffey Return in 2011?" speculation starts in earnest.
  4. Sorry Langerhans, we really wanted someone who could tickle instead of hit and play the outfield well. http://j.mp/21Zt3L
  5. Larry Stone reports Griffey to return next year, M's to play season with 24 roster spots, 8 lineup spots each game.
  6. @zambonicyouth Wilson, Izturis, Andrus all were +4 runs in UZR over Jeter. Everett would have been #4
  7. More Gold Glove ranting: three shortstops+ clearly better than Derek Jeter, who was at least good...and won 100 GGs when he sucked
  8. How bad are the Gold Gloves? Gutierrez was worth over two WINS over Adam Jones defensively. Carl Crawford has never won a GG.
  9. Adam Jones, Ichiro, Hunter win OF Gold Gloves. Ichiro's the tenth-best OFer. Hunter and Jones were *below average* by UZR.
  10. hot rumor is Adam Jones getting a Gold Glove "over" Gutierrez. But there are three OF awards -- so Guti could still win as well
  11. Now all Alex needs is a fantasy-world centaur polo title and he can retire happily.
  12. USS Mariner wishes to congratulate Alex Rodriguez on his first... his first... no, I can't do it.
  13. Dave's 2010 off-season plan! Dave's 2010 off-season plan! http://bit.ly/WhL0t
  14. Denials of Johjima buyout nearly as convincing as original Sasaki injury explanation.
  15. DMZ and DMZ Sr.'s iPhone app, w/WPA, managerial strategery: http://bit.ly/2l4W63
  16. Kenji opts out, M's freed of contract: http://bit.ly/1Sv46
  17. Great way to end a season. Thanks, all!
  18. Felix will also be #1 in franchise history in "wild pitches". Thanks, Rob Johnson! Heck of a job back there.
  19. King Felix now holds the M's record for one-season Ks by a RHP, and is 10th on all-time list. Will tie for #9 if he gets to 213 today.
  20. Rejected ad for "sexual psychic" today. You're all welcome.
