There's a great article at Only Baseball Matters, featuring Milton Bradley speaking to a crowd of eighth graders. When he talks about his mother, I get all choked up.
Also, if you haven't been to Retrosheet lately, you should check it out. The list of features at Retrosheet keeps growing, including links to top performances and specific matchups from each player page (1960 and on), umpire data, updated transactions and BFW (Batting-Fielding Wins) and PW (Pitching Wins) from the Baseball Encyclopedia.
Dave was called a "national treasure" by Rob Neyer. Seriously. Comments about this article can be sent to him through the miracle of e-mail.
