Tuesday, March 29, 2005Blez and the A’sIf you don't already make Athletics Nation a part of your daily reading (and why not, exactly?), make sure to head over there today to read about Tyler Bleszinski's experience hanging out with and interviewing a whole bunch of the Oakland A's. Blez was schmoozing with Billy Beane, Barry Zito, Rich Harden, and Eric Byrnes, interviewing Huston Street, handing out AN's "In Billy We Trust" t-shirts, showing off pictures of his new baby girl in a gigantic-looking A's hat, and generally just living the dream of every baseball blogger. Go check it out. The pictures of Blez posing with various players while always sporting the "I can't believe this is happening" look on his face is worth the price of admission. You know, if there was a price of admission. Saturday, March 26, 2005Fielding GraphsDavid Pinto has produced fielding graphs for all major league players last year. I have to admit that I'm tremendously excited by this. There are several graphs for each player, exhibiting his prowess on each type of batted ball by fielding zone compared to the major league average over the past three years, and adjusted for the ballpark. That's a mouthful, but these are powerful graphs. Congratulations to David for pulling this off. Friday, March 18, 2005Congressional CoverageI have to admit that I couldn't care less about the congressional hearings into steroid use in baseball. I mean, don't legislators sending young men to war have more important things to do? Still, if you're interested, here are a few links about the hearings: - Will Carroll's blow-by-blow account - John Perricone's in-depth take at Only Baseball Matters - Best of all, Batgirl's reenactment Wednesday, March 16, 2005Bullpen Book ReviewThe "Stick and Ball Guy" (great name) has written a review of The Hardball Times's Bullpen Book.
