A relatively inexperienced ball player can now “make it rain” for the rest of his life. A start outfielder from Motown hits the shelf. The D’backs made a decision about who will take over in the 9th inning. I think they may have made the wrong call. Finally, the Bucs welcome back their solid second [...]
So often times we judge pitchers, unfairly, by their win-loss records. If we take a look beyond their records we almost universally focus on the ERA next, even though that mark too can be deceiving. In what follows I will break down the early season performances of thirteen hurlers, six which you should consider buying [...]
