Ranking the races


Pittsburgh Dan Fox has posted an outtake from the Baseball Prospectus pennant race book, in which he ranks the greatest pennant races of all time. No surprise that the 1908 NL is first; the fun fact is that the 1908 AL is 13th. In the multi-division era, the 1977 American League East is ranked first.

Preempting the Tide on Ichiro


It's June and Ichiro is still hitting under .300 on the year. Time for the annual crop of Ichiro is finished articles. Except they've always been wrong. One of these days they won't be, but it strikes me, and Jeff Sullivan of Lookout Landing, that when that day comes, we'll be able to spot it in underlying numbers. 2008 Ichiro looks the same as 207 Ichiro except for BABIP.
