Falling Off the Padres Bandwagon


Geoff Young chimes in with a tome breaking down the Padres slow start this season and the fans' reaction. Definitely a great read.

What’s wrong with Verlander?


Eric Seidman takes a look over at FanGraphs. Tigers fans might not be happy. Seidman identifies the main culprit as being a decrease in strikeout rate and an increase in walk rate, and attributes it to a decrease in average fastball velocity from 94.8 mph to 93.0 mph. While it seems as good an explanation as any, I'm not convinced that 2 mph would make such a big difference, though I definitely don't know a lot about such things. Will be interesting to see how this plays out.

Tavarez is relieved of duty by the Red Sox


This short Boston Globe piece on Julian Tavarez gives an interesting little slice of life for baseball players, describing how rookie Craig Hansen found out that he was staying with the Red Sox when Tavarez started walking around the hotel dining room saying good bye to his former teammates. I always find it interesting to read these little snippets about what it's like to be a baseball player.
